The main output of the project is the creation of an overall framework for monitoring, assessment, measurement & accreditation of green-digital initiatives & a pilot demonstration of measurable environmental /energy efficiency gains for different types of environmental resources using green-digital infrastructures, contributing to the integrated-horizontal (twin) objectives of the Project. This will be achieved through:
- An Observatory for the assessment of the energy efficiency of the digital processing and digital infrastructures of various sectors of economic activity. The activities-outputs linked with this are:
- Mapping of trends of digital transformation initiatives with significant environmental footprint
- Analysis - description of factors preventing the adoption of green digitalization measures.
- Establishment of Barometer for the monitoring of relevant trends in the economy
- Promotion of green digital processes and environmentally friendly digital culture
- Twin Competency framework & academic research
- Comparative assessment of the measurements recorded in the participating countries. The activities-outputs linked with this are:
- Assessment Framework creation
- Comparative assessment of measurements
- Creation of Action Plan towards Green Digitalization (green digitalization roadmap). The activities-outputs linked with this are:
- Best practices for green digitalization
- Green digitalization certificate creation
- Green digitalization roadmap/action plan
- Pilot applications enabling the ‘greening’ of selected digital transformation initiatives and assessment of their environmental footprint. The activities-outputs linked with this are:
- Preparation & Design of pilot actions to showcase how existing or new digital infrastructures can become greener:
- Green Data center pilot producing green benefits & recycling of produced-consumed energy
- Green digital pilot initiatives through grant schemes
- Measuring energy efficiency gains
