In 2009 electricity use for ICT in UK universities and colleges cost around £116m, and resulted in over 500,000t of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Without action, these figures will increase considerably as computing develops. Minimising this energy consumption is increasingly important for financial and environmental reasons. It will be impossible, for example, for English universities to meet the Government’s target for HE, HEFCE and UUK of an 80% reduction in carbon emissions by 2050 without doing this
