The enabling technologies of a low-carbon economy: a focus on cloud computing
According to GeSI’s SMART2020 report, applying ICT solutions to sectors such as energy
Telecom operators need to be able to understand how they can improve their energy efficiency performance in relation to their peers. Unfortunately reporting methodologies are not yet satisfactory due to a lack of standard and consistent Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). In fact, fixed and mobile operators use different methodologies for calculating their energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions making KPIs incomparable. No mechanism is available that would provide fixed and mobile operators with standardised benchmarks to assist their energy and emissions reduction activities.
GeSI was quick to respond to this issue by commissioning the development of a framework of standard energy efficiency KPIs for fixed operators. Supplementing the GSMA’s framework of energy efficiency KPIs for mobile operators, our project aims to:
Identify standard energy efficiency KPIs for telecom operators;
