Technology Carbon Standard (Proposed)

-
+

A proposed Technology Carbon Standard that aims to provide a unified standard for understanding, quantifying, and reducing carbon emissions from an organisation's technology landscape. Outlining a standardised methodology for attributing emissions to different aspects of the tech estate enables organisations to identify priority areas and opportunities to mitigate emissions effectively.

+ + {% include carbonStandard.html %} +
+

The standard categorises emissions into three key areas:

    -
  • Upstream Emissions: Emissions relating to the production of hardware and the installed software used by the organisation.
  • +
  • Upstream Emissions: Emissions relating to the embodied carbon of hardware and the carbon emissions of the development and distribution of installed software used by the organisation.
  • Operational Emissions: Emissions from the day-to-day running of the organisation's IT infrastructure and services. This encompasses emissions from powering devices, data centers, servers, and cloud services.
