Publication metadata
The study on “Energy-efficient Cloud Computing Technologies and Policies for an Ecofriendly Cloud Market” is a 16-month service contract funded by the European Commission, Directorate-General for Communication Networks, Content and Technology, which addresses the issue of exponentially growth in energy consumption due to the expansion of cloud services at a European level, covering all aspects related to the underlying technological and structural base. An overview over the relevant technological developments, as well as current voluntary and regulatory policy instruments are developed and provide insights into potentials for a reduction of energy consumption as well as suitable policy options (including Green Public Procurement) to foster eco-friendly efficient cloud services and an energy efficient data centre and network landscapes. The final study report provides a compilation of all study activities and presents the final findings.
