Intro
Basic calculation
Full life-cycle modelling
This model builds on the basic calculation but makes it easier to factor in calculations relating to:
- the effect of different power management policies
- CO2 emissions that result from electricity consumption
- CO2 emissions that result from purchasing equipment
- recycling costs
This model aims to provide a more complete representation of the parameters that need considering to build low-carbon ICT systems.
Tutorials for constructing low-carbon ICT models
Taking the modelling approach even further it is now possible to construct models from code fragments entirely using an internet browser. This tool can be used to build new models relating to low carbon ict, and explore the problem in a more in-depth manner.
