According to a well-argued, climate change "has to be considered as the biggest
market failure the world has ever known before. There is scientific consensus that the world has a little
time to deal with increased emissions of greenhouse gases and climate change. The aim of this paper is
to promote the implementation of new Information Technology companies in order to get a grip on
consumption and energy efficiency in industrial sectors that make up the business. At the present time,
we thought it needed to boost the use of ICTs as a powerful tool for the preservation of the
environment and educate both employees and employers in using them to build a new business
network aware and directed toward sustainable economy. We believe that the ICT sector can play an
important role in reducing carbon emissions. Information technologies have the potential to reduce
overall carbon emissions by 15% by 2020, this 15% is between five and ten times the energy they
consume. We consider four main areas in which the application of ICT has enormous potential in
reducing harmful emissions and create a relief for the health of the planet: Motor systems, Logistics,
Buildings and Grids.
Module 10 - Section 7,8 & 9: Enabling effects of ICTs for climate action 2011...Richard Labelle
This presentation focuses on the role of ICTs in enabling the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, in facilitating greater energy efficiency and overall in contributing to the promotion of sustainability and LED (low emission development).
Slide presentations developed to demonstrate how Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) be used to address climate change, and why ICTs are a crucial part of the solution – i.e. in promoting efficiency, Green Growth & sustainable development, in dealing with climate change and for climate and environmental action. These slide presentations were delivered in February 2011 in Seongnam, near Seoul in Korea.
These presentations were developed and delivered over 2.5 days on the occasion of a Regional Training of Trainers Workshop for upcoming Academy modules on ICT for Disaster Risk Management and Climate Change Abatement. These modules were developed as part of the Academy of ICT Essentials for Government leaders developed by the United Nations (UN) Asia Pacific Centre for ICT Training (APCICT), based in Songdo City, in the Republic of South Korea.
These presentations were developed in 2011, and are somewhat out of date, but most of the principles still apply. Module 10, which has been published, does not include much of the information outlined in these presentations, which are fairly technical. They were developed to address a significant gap in understanding of the technical basis of using ICTs for climate action and because there is a clear bias in development circles against the importance of dealing with climate change mitigation in developing countries. These presentations are an attempt to redress this lack and are published here with this purpose in mind.
The author, Richard Labelle, is presently working on updating these presentations to further highlight the importance of addressing climate change and the important role that technology including ICTs, play in this effort.

Due to availability of internet and evolution of embedded devices, Internet of things can be useful to contribute in energy domain. The Internet of Things (IoT) will deliver a smarter grid to enable more information and connectivity throughout the infrastructure and to homes. Through the IoT, consumers, manufacturers and utility providers will come across new ways to manage devices and ultimately conserve resources and save money by using smart meters, home gateways, smart plugs and connected appliances. The future smart home, various devices will be able to measure and share their energy consumption, and actively participate in house-wide or building wide energy management systems. This paper discusses the different approaches being taken worldwide to connect the smart grid. Full system solutions can be developed by combining hardware and software to address some of the challenges in building a smarter and more connected smart grid.
The industry of electrical energy continuously converges towards a competitive framework replacing gradually the traditional monopolistic landscape. The liberalization of the electricity market brought the separation of operations among production, transmission and distribution of electrical energy. Energy demand load forecasting become an effective tool for operational planning and security assessment of a power system.
Only 8–12% of customers report a power outage to their utility. Utilities that integrate Automated Metering Systems (AMI) data into outage management systems receive faster and more accurate reports about power outages, can better predict the extent of the outage, and more reliably verify service restoration. This paper discusses practical considerations when integrating AMI for outage management, including compliance testing, data quantity and quality, analysis issues, and best practices learned from experience.

Abstract: According to a well-argued, climate change "has to be considered as the biggest
market failure the world has ever known before. There is scientific consensus that the world has a little
time to deal with increased emissions of greenhouse gases and climate change. The aim of this paper is
to promote the implementation of new Information Technology companies in order to get a grip on
consumption and energy efficiency in industrial sectors that make up the business. At the present time,
we thought it needed to boost the use of ICTs as a powerful tool for the preservation of the
environment and educate both employees and employers in using them to build a new business
network aware and directed toward sustainable economy. We believe that the ICT sector can play an
important role in reducing carbon emissions. Information technologies have the potential to reduce
overall carbon emissions by 15% by 2020, this 15% is between five and ten times the energy they
consume. We consider four main areas in which the application of ICT has enormous potential in
reducing harmful emissions and create a relief for the health of the planet: Motor systems, Logistics,
Buildings and Grids.
Keywords: Carbon Emissions, Climate Change, Energy Efficiency, ICTs, Sustainable
Economy
1) INTRODUCTION
We want to start this paper recalling the words of UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon.
“We all know that information and communications technologies (ICTs) have revolutionised our world. ICTs
are also very vital to confronting the problems we face as a planet: the threat of climate change. Indeed ICTs are
part of the solution. Already these technologies are being used to cut emissions and help countries adapt to the
effects of climate change. Governments and industries that embrace a strategy of green growth will be
environmental champions and economic leaders in the twenty-first century.”
We can not err on this issue because, as it is a priority challenge for the world. If we are wrong, employment and
prosperity would not be the only aspects that will be threatened but also the ability of human beings continue to
live comfortably on our planet.
The ICT sector has a powerful role to play in tackling climate change by enabling other sectors, such as
transport, buildings, power and industry, to become more efficient. We consider four main areas in which the
application of ICT has enormous potential in reducing harmful emissions:
• Motor systems
• Logistics:
• Buildings
• Grids
So in the next lines we are going to explain what ICTs Technologies can do in order to reduce the carbon
emissions in the mention fields.
2. 2) Motor systems
Motor systems – devices that convert electricity into mechanical power – lie at the heart of global industrial
activity. These include transformers such as those used in compressors and pumps and variable speed drives
(VSD) used in conveyor belts and elevators. Though invisible to most of us, these devices are crucial to the
manufacturing sector and, as this sector expands, so does energy demand. Carbon emissions as a result of
energy used by the growing manufacturing industry in regions such as China increase still further, as most of the
electricity required will be generated using carbon-intensive coal-fired power stations
a) How ICT can help
Motors can be inefficient as they operate at full capacity, regardless of load. A motor is “smart” when it can be
controlled to adjust its power usage to a required output, usually through a VSD and intelligent motor controller
(IMC), a piece of hardware controlling the VSD.
There is a lack of information about energy consumption in motor systems and where savings can be made
within a factory. ICT’s main role in the short term, therefore, will be to monitor energy use and provide data to
businesses so they can make energy and cost savings by changing manufacturing systems. These data may also
be useful for organisations setting standards for motor system efficiency. The ICT sector has additional roles to
play. Simulation software is required to help improve plant and manufacturing process design. Wireless
networks that allow inter-machine and system communication, would improve efficiency across an entire
factory summarises the role ICT could play in improving motor and industrial system efficiency.
The opportunities for industry in adopting ICT-driven improvements to reduce their climate impact are clear –
perhaps nowhere more so than in countries where business is booming. Given that much of the growth in
industrial energy demand has been in emerging economies, with China alone accounting for about 80% of the
growth in the last 25 years, the potential for large-scale utilisation of smart motor systems will be greatest there.

3) Logistics
Global goods transport is growing rapidly, as a result of globalisation and global economic growth. The logistics
of this vast operation (including packaging, transport, storage, consumer purchasing and waste) are inherently
inefficient. For instance, vehicles often carry little or nothing on return journeys. As fuel costs and taxes rise, the
need to run more efficient logistics operations is increasingly important. “smart logistics” comprise a range of
software and hardware tools that monitor, optimise and manage operations, which helps reduce the storage
needed for inventory, fuel consumption, kilometres driven and frequency of vehicles travelling empty or
partially loaded
a) How ICT can help
ICT can improve the efficiency of logistics operations in a number of ways. These include software to improve
the design of transport networks, allow the running of centralised distribution networks and run management
systems that can facilitate flexible home delivery services. Specific levers include intermodal shift, or moving to
the most efficient type of transport, eco-driving, route optimisation and inventory reduction. There are a number
of specific technologies that could already enable more efficient logistics.

5. 4) Buildings
The term ‘smart buildings’ describes a suite of technologies used to make the design, construction and operation
of buildings more efficient, applicable to both existing and new build properties. These might include building
management systems (BMS) that run heating and cooling systems according to occupants’ needs or software
that switches off all PCs and monitors after everyone has gone home. BMS data can be used to identify
additional opportunities for efficiency improvements.
A host of BMSs already exist and as ICT applications become more sophisticated, the range of BMS functions
will expand.
a) How ICT can help
Energy consumption in buildings is driven by two factors – energy intensity and surface area. ICT-based
monitoring, feedback and optimization tools can be used to reduce both at every stage of a building’s life cycle,
from design and construction to use and demolition.
Buildings are often poorly designed at the outset, with little consideration for how their uses may change over
time. Even if energy efficiency has been incorporated at the start, a building’s actual energy performance can be
impaired if builders deviate from the plans or if occupants do not operate the BMS according to plans or
specifications. Assuming the building has been designed and built to specification, poor commissioning
(ensuring the building’s systems function as specified), constant change of use and poor maintenance can
significantly reduce the effectiveness of any BMS. This means that buildings differ dramatically in the energy
they consume and as a result the same technology applications can have very different impacts.

Global building emissions were 8% of total emissions in 2002 (3.36 GtCO2e). These figures exclude the energy
used to run the buildings. If this is taken into account, the sector would emit 11.7 GtCO2e in 2020. ICT offers a
major opportunity to reduce emissions from this sector, by 15% in 2020.

5) Grids
Current centralised energy distribution networks are often huge, inefficient grids that lose power in transmission,
require an overcapacity of generating capability to cope with unexpected surges in energy use and allow one-
way communication only – from provider to customer. In most countries, selling energy back to the grid (e.g.
that generated from solar panels) is impossible. This way of operating is becoming increasingly untenable: the
costs of fuel are rising and a global emissions trading scheme (ETS) is likely in the next few years. Electricity
producers can’t afford to waste the amount of power that they currently do.
A “smart grid” is a set of software and hardware tools that enable generators to route power more efficiently,
reducing the need for excess capacity and allowing two-way, real time information exchange with their
customers for real time demand side management (DSM). It improves efficiency, energy monitoring and data
capture across the power generation and T&D network.
7. a) How ICT can help
ICT is integral to the range of technologies that comprise a smart grid. Some of these include smart meters,
which allow consumers more information about how much energy they are using or allow automated reading of
energy consumption data, helping the utility to better understand where energy is being used and more advanced
grid management systems. Demand management systems (also known as “dynamic demand”) automate the
feedback process by allowing appliances such as refrigerators to dynamically reduce their load at peak times.
outlines the emissions reductions opportunities for the sector.
The emergence of smart grids as an alternative to well-established, existing infrastructures is very much upon us
and in the years to 2020 much change is expected. Yet in places such as India, where the network’s
inefficiencies are severely impeding economic growth, the imperative to transform the current system and
remedy these shortcomings is immediate.
