Green ITGreen IT IST Management Retreat 26 May 2009

What is Green IT?What is Green IT?  Beyond traditional "ROI", financial performance, expand to include ecological and social impacts.  Also known as the Triple Bottom Line of "people, planet, and profit".  Can mean operating more efficiently and reducing resource usage, so may save dollars, but …  … does not always translate into savings.

Examples of "greening"Examples of "greening"  Virtualization and consolidation  "Terminal servers" or "thin clients"  Power management (turning off when not in use, hibernation, types of power cords, displays, etc.)  Recycling  Telecommuting  Algorithmic efficiency

What does IST already do?What does IST already do?  Virtualization project (Report the "savings" in power, space?)  Workday autopower bios feature  Green AC "free cooling" units that draw from outside cold air  Lenovo - use their power management tools through the AD  Dell – more "green" servers (still hard to justify economically)  Recognize that power consumption on a notebook is less than a desktop (again, economic factors)  We help Plant Ops save on heating in some offices downstairs :-)

Kermit had it rightKermit had it right “It’s not easy being green.”  What’s more green? (“coffee cup vs mug”)  Print copies of materials for retreat?  Use laptops, projection facilities, remote controls, extra heating of the room, …  Will it save resources? (“drive a hybrid, but more”)  Virtualization makes it easier to create a new server … so we run more?

What might IST do next?What might IST do next?  Tap into UW resources  Tap into local companies  Tap into partnership offerings  Figure out what changes behaviours  Costs and regulation  Leading by example  Reach for “low hanging fruit” within our control

Green IT resources at UWGreen IT resources at UW  UCIST statement and principles being developed  “Green Grass”  Grassroots activities such as in AHS  Faculty level initiative in Faculty of Environment  Green IT mailing list  Plant Ops initiatives (HVAC efficiencies, automation of building HVAC, etc.)  Jatin Nathwani (UW Ontario Research Chair in Public Policy for Sustainable Energy Management) - ??

Green IT related local companiesGreen IT related local companies  Energent (local company, measure energy usage)  Bullfrogpower (green electricity for home and work)  Sustainable Waterloo (local non-profit, business cases for reducing emissions)

Green IT partnersGreen IT partners  Vendors like Dell, Lenovo, IBM  CANARIE funding  Government programs

Questions  What areas should we target for green initiatives, and how do we measure "success"?  How much time and resource can we put to these initiatives and to their measurements?  Should we link into other UW or Waterloo or vendor groups?  How might we promote IST's successes in Green IT initiatives?  How do we get started and keep the momentum going?
