  1. NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  2. Future Trends in Information Technology –Sustainability and Smart Grid Stan Tonkins (Sustainability Trainer TAFE NSW) NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  3. Introduction • What Green IT is and some of the ICT things that can be involved in Green buildings NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  4. Creating a Sustainable “Green IT Society” NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  5. Green IT project forecasts NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  6. green IT • Green computing or green IT, refers to environmentally sustainable computing or IT. Harnessing Green IT: Principles and Practices, defines the field of green computing as "the study and practice of designing, manufacturing, using, and disposing of computers, servers, and associated subsystems efficiently and effectively with minimal or no impact on the environment." NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  7. ...ICT innovations that you can apply to Green building: renewable energy virtualisation thin clients smart metering Smart Grid NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  8. Renewable energy power station

  9. Basic ICT Sustainability Skill Set • Target Group This skill set is for experienced personnel in the installation of modern ICT networks using technologies to reduce energy consumption for sustainability. NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  10. Basic ICT Sustainability Skill Set • Units • ICTSUS4183A Install and test renewable energy system for ICT networks • ICTSUS4184A Install and test power saving hardware. • ICTSUS4185A Install and test power management software NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  11. Advanced ICT Sustainability Skill Set • Target Group This skill set is for experienced personnel in the installation of modern ICT networks using IP convergence and virtualisation technologies. NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  12. Advanced ICT Sustainability Skill Set • ICTSUS4186A Install thin client applications for power over ethernet • ICTSUS5187A Implement server virtualisation for a sustainable ICT system • BSBSUS501A Develop workplace policy and procedures for sustainability NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  13. Server Virtualisation • Power savingover multiple physical servers • Simplifysystem administration by integrating all servers into one physical machine • Server hardware resource optimisation NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  14. Power Consumption Comparison vs 5 Physical Virtual Server servers NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  15. thin clients • A thin client asks a central server to do most of its processing, and keeps as little hardware and software as possible on the workstation (client) side. • Thin client – Edubuntu/LTPS • Ultra thin client - openThinClient • Web thin client- eyeOS/joliCLOUD • Smart Client – Microsoft NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  16. NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  17. Simple client • Ideally, the user of a thin client should have only a screen, keyboard, mouse and enough computing power to handle display and network communications NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  18. Simple 5 watt client NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  19. Introduction to Smart Grid skill set: • ICTTEN4229A Design, install and configure a customer smart grid network • ICTTEN2105A Install and test an IP device in convergence networks. NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  20. smart metering • Smart Meters usually involve a different technology mix, such as real-time or near real-time sensors, metering, power outage notification, and power quality monitoring • the "feedback effect" (which tells people how much energy was used over a period of time, or how much energy a particular activity/appliance consumed) in energy demand reduction is important. NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  21. Smart Meters NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  22. Smart Grid • Smart grid technology is developing rapidly and will transform the way humans produce and use electricity. The smart grid will use integrated technology to monitor and manage electricity use based on demand and prevailing cost. • The smart grid will provide for the sharing of electricity produced by various sources. NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  23. Smart Grid + Renewables • As solar and wind power and energy storage technologies become more cost-effective an increasing number of businesses and homes will employ them. In future these sustainable technologies may be producing more than 50% of all energy required by the grid. NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  24. Smart grid two-way exchanges of information and energy NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  25. Smart Grid – Australia an early adopter • Although we are at the bottom of the learning curve, Australia is expected to be an early adopter of Smart Grid appliances and technologies (zpryme). NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  26. SMART 2020: Enabling the low carbon economy in the information age • Smart grids: Reducing T&D losses in power sector by 30% is possible through better monitoring and management of electricity grids, first with smart meters and then by integrating more advanced ICTs into the so-called energy internet. NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  27. Smart Grid functions: 1. To be able to heal itself 2. To motivate consumers to actively participate in operations of the grid 3. To resist attack 4. To provide higher quality power that will save money wasted from outages NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  28. Smart Grid functions: 5. To accommodate all generation and storage options 6. To enable electricity markets to flourish 7. To run more efficiently 8. To enable higher penetration of intermittent power generation sources NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  29. Strategic Issues associated with adoption of Smart Grid • Wired or Wireless • Standards and Compliance Issues (Europe and US have different) standardised communications protocols are vital upstream and downstream for exchanging data between types of equipment on the network – for instance, enabling end-users' domestic appliances to communicate NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  30. Strategic Issues associated with adoption of Smart Grid • Ensuring our professions understand and use cutting edge technologies and thinking • Energy metering and building monitoring • Further research is needed, for instance in electricity storage and the technological and economic innovations necessary to minimise load. NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  31. Smart Grid - opportunities • Smart grid technologies were the largest opportunity found in the study and could globally reduce 2.03 GtCO2e , worth ¤79 billion ($124.6 billion). NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  32. Smart Grid Global Business Forecasts NSW Energy Efficiency Training Program (EETP)

  33. Smart Grid - renewal of our infrastructure • There are risks and opportunities in following new technology paths. Risks may be managed by using pilot projects that build confidence, skills and an understanding of options and merits. Nevertheless we should not lack courage in these matters as there are substantial scaling opportunities for common good both economically and socially in renewal of our infrastructure using smart grid networks.
