Digitalization and Climate

Digital technologies help to reduce the carbon emissions massively on a global scale. They are indispensable to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. However, digital systems have their own share of carbon emissions, which are steadily growing. How much do computer systems add to the global carbon footprint? How much energy do digital systems require and what measures have already been taken to try to reduce this? What can we do in everyday life to reduce energy consumption of digital devices and services? What is missing so far and how can clean-IT and sustainability by design help to further decrease the carbon footprint of computer systems?

Energy-efficient Algorithms and Databases

All digital technologies are based on algorithms and data. Metaphorically speaking, computer systems are like alchemy. Very few things are impossible in the digital world. Any scenario or program can be modelled by sequences of binary values (0-1). However, the quality of digital programs varies significantly. One can achieve the same result with very different algorithmic sequences. A large, complex and wastefully-designed piece of software can facilitate the same outcome as a slim, simple and thoughtfully-designed algorithm. As carbon emissions and energy consumption in computer systems always originate in computing time and effort, it is crucially important to find the most efficient ways to design computer programs to carry out a specific tasks within a certain quality margin.

Energy-efficient Data Centers

Data centers are at the core of digital transformation. They host the ubiquitous cloud and execute millions of applications used by people all around the world. They enable people and institutions worldwide to access computing power and data storage on a massive scale and make all the popular digital applications possible, which accompany us in everyday life. However, data centers consume enormous amounts of energy. Coming to grips with this issue is mandatory to make digitalization sustainable in the future.

Clean AI

Today, artificial intelligence has become a powerful tool to manage many tasks and to organize the modern connected world. Without AI we would not be able to manage the global flood of data collected by millions of digital devices. It would be impossible to navigate the vast WWW with its billions of websites and web documents. We could not make meaningful predictions from statistical data collected to diagnose diseases, organize traffic, retail and goods distribution. Without AI the vision of driverless cars and predictive maintenance would remain fantasy and none of the global sustainability challenges like fighting poverty, illiteracy, pollution etc. would be within reach. In short: A life without AI technologies has become hardly imaginable. However, the ever-growing demand for AI applications has its price. Training and executing the latest AI models based on deep neural networks require massive amounts of structured data and hundreds of thousands of computation layers. Training a powerful neural network can emit as much carbon as the life cycle of five cars including fuel. In order to have the benefits of AI without destroying the planet it is mandatory to find new training techniques and operating schemes for deep neural networks, which require much less data input, computation power and therefore much less energy.

clean-IT openXchange

The clean-IT openXchange is a series of live talks and events on sustainable digitization. Once every month, experts present a topic on which participants can then directly ask questions and discuss. The topics of the talks consist of a mix of topics already presented in this forum and completely new ideas. The talks are open to everyone as online meetings. Participants are invited to exchange and discuss ideas with the presenters and viewers. In this section, the recordings of the talks will be uploaded subsequently.

clean-IT Conference 2022

The first clean-IT conference is an international platform for the exchange of ideas to make the digital world more sustainable. High-ranking representatives from politics and industry discussed with science and civil society the pressing question of how digital technologies can support the fight against climate change and what needs to be done to reduce the carbon footprint of digitization.
