Energy efficiency improvement for ICT equipment Prospective elements of ICT equipment to improve energy efficiency are CPU, power supply, cooling fan, storage, etc. ElementsGuidance CPU Use High performance CPU Minimize power consumption during idle time (AMDs PowerNoW!, Intels SpeedStep, and IBMs EnergyScale) Change cooling method (use water cooling, and use copper plate rather than steel plate) Use multi-core CPU Power supply Use energy efficient power supply Cooling fan Use variable-speed cooling fan according to heat of server Use small number of big cooling fan rather than large number of small cooling fan Change internal configuration to improve cooling effects Storage Use external disks rather than internal disks Use SSD-like memory disks Use high capacity and low power disks like SATA

ITU-T SG5 Activities on data center WP3/5 planned a series of recommendations to cover data centers impact. –L.DC Data Center best practices –L.metrinfra Metrics for infrastructure and data cen ter –L.measinfra Measurement method for infrastructur e and Data Center
This Recomendation will contains requirements for data center realization as selection of equipment, cooling, powering, and some suggetion to relaize and conduct a data center with reduced impact. L.DC Data Center best practices
L.metrinfra Metrics for infrastructure an d data center Recomendation that will contains definition of metrics for data center and telecom infrastructure
L.measinfra Measurement method for in frastructure and Data Center Recomendation that will establish measurement methods for the power/energy consumption of Data center and telelecom Infrastructure
