Climate change poses new challenges to everyone. By now it is well-known that the world wide average temperature will probably rise by more than 2°C causing some regions to get barren and others to be flooded, unless all areas of economic activity contribute to a substantial reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. It is also well-known that ICT alone is responsible for about as many emissions as the total of aviation – maybe even more in future. What is less well-known is that the data centres’ carbon footprint is continually gaining weight within the total of ICT; steadily increasing due to an overall trend of outsourcing computing power and the world’s tendency to create and move around more data every single day.
This situation is a challenge for many experts working in the field of GreenIT, which is why E2DC was started last year. It specifically targets the environmental impact of data centres from a software as well as hardware perspective, thinking locally and globally.The scope spans technological solutions as well as new business models. It addresses researchers from academia, but in order to foster collaboration between academia and industry and to increase the overall impact, a strong industrial track is also planned.
