Green IT

• Computers generates 2% of CO2 emissions from human activity. As far as all the world aircraft fleet! (Gartner Group).

• 35 to 50% of the electricity consumed by a data center is used to cool the servers (Gartner Group).

• With Virtualization could raise the utilization of servers by 20% on average now about 90% (PC Energy Report source).

• A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of a desktop shows that manufacturing and end of life accounts for the majority of the laptop ecological footprint. (Fujitsu)

• The PC manufacturing process accounts for 70% of the natural resources used in the life cycle of a PC. (Gartner Group)

• Manufacturing a new PC makes a far bigger ecological footprint than manufacturing a new RAM module to upgrade an existing one (Gartner Group)

The design and implementation of information systems

that contribute to sustainability of business processes

(Boudreau et al., 2008).

‘In essence, sustainable

development is a

process

of change

in which the exploitation of resources, the direction


of resources, the direction of investments, the orientation of technological development and institutional change are all in harmony and enhance both current and future potential to meet human needs and aspirations’ (UN, 1987)

Wie investeert?

Waar vallen de benefits?

• Het vraagstuk van IT chargeback

• Overwegingen:– Identificeren werkelijke cost drivers


– Identificeren werkelijke cost drivers– Kosten van meten en administratie– Faire basis voor performance evaluation– Beïnvloeden van de vraag: ‘het maken van de juiste

keuzes’– Fiscale effecten

• Van ‘IT cost recovery’ naar ‘Governance of IT’

Duurzaamheid in het HBO

Maken we genoeg meters?

+++++• Het staat duidelijk op de agenda• Er gebeurt veel


--------• Duurzaamheid wordt nog niet

zo breed geïnterpreteerd– Vooral energy efficiency– Social sustainability?

• Integratie in programma’s en curricula nog beperkt• Nog weinig overall visie zichtbaar
