1 Renewable Energy Provisioning for ICT Services in Future Internet Kim Khoa Nguyen, Mohamed Cheriet Mathieu Lemay Bill St. Arnaud Victor Reijs, Andrew Mackarel Pau Minoves Alin Pastrama Ward Van Heddeghem University of Québec, Canada Inocybe Technologies, Canada St. Arnaud Walker & Associates, Canada HEAnet, Ireland i2cat Foundation, Spain NORDUnet, Denmark IBBT, Belgium Presented by: Sergi Figuerola, Area Manager at i2cat Foundation

2 ICT Energy & Environment Climate Change is not reversible Urgently need to develop low carbon solutions ICT are a major consumer of power (8% in the US) and CO2 production which is growing at 6% per year The problem we face requires not only Energy Efficiency though, BUT GHG Reduction using renewable sources The Goal is to provide ICT Services with renewable energy Canada and Europe should be leaders in green ICT GSN & MANTYCHORE FP7 partnership 2

3 ICT Energy & Environment The current Internet Bejing Olympic Data Center, 1,000,000 Sq Ft, 80 MVA Lakeside Technology Center, Chicago 1,100,000 Sq Ft, 100 MVA 3

4 ICT Energy & Environment Data Centers in the World 57 DCs 1005 DCs About 2,000 data centers over the world (Data Center Map) 4 4

5 The GreenStar Network Solution How to keep IT service green? Energy efficiency techniques (from micro to macro) Data centers powered by renewable energy sources (i.e., hydroelectricity, solar, wind) Separate infrastructure ownership and maintenance from usage (virtualisation) All-optical Core network IT service is migrated around nodes when power dwindles Virtualization and Cloud Computing must be implemented Scalable & Flexible management for intermittent energy sources 5

6 The GreenStar Network Solution GSN Green IT Pilot Goals: (i) Distributed Cloud Software (ii) Follow the Sun/Wind Energy (iii) Carbon protocol, GeoChronos relocation Compute Resource 1M Compute Resource nm Network Resource 1 M Compute Cluster Infrastructure Resources Network Equipment Network Resource n M Sensor Resource 1 M Infrastructure Metrics Aggregation Sensor Resource n M Decision Engine Instruments, Sensors Metrics (M) Data Centre n GHG Measurement Engine (ISO 14064) GreenStar Network Central Hub Hydro-powered node Spokes Sun or Wind powered nodes 6

7 FP7 MANTYCHORE NaaS provisioning for Carbon Neutral Infrastructures MANTYCHORE vision: Provide software implementation and tools for managing Networks as a Service (NaaS) with renewable energy sources considerations: Carbon Neutral Infrastructures 7

8 The GreenStar Network Connection plan 8

9 GSN Nodes & Network in EU NORDunet GSN associates and MANTYCHORE GSN / Mantychore Integration team focused on Test Case Generation Solution Integration requirements and benefits analysis Training, transfer of know-how, setup and support mechanisms 9

10 The GreenStar Network Network Management 10

11 The GreenStar Network What can be virtualized? Computing resources Hypervisors: KVM, Xen, VMWare Guest operating system: Linux (Ubuntu, Cent OS), Windows Available templates: Desktop, Server 32 bit, Server 64 bits Storage resources iscsi NFS Network resources Layer 1: Argia (former UCLP) Layer 2, 3: MANTYCHORE FP7 Network address assignment (DHCP server) PDU resources Raritan, ServerTech Power Source resources Solar power generator Wind power generator Climate resources Raritan sensors 11

12 The GreenStar Network Transcoding and Video Streaming service provision based on Follow the Sun and the Wind Video Streaming VM VM DLNA Server Transcoding Server 12

13 Research Directions Quantifying GHG emissions Modeling/ Evaluation of energy consumption & GHG emissions Inter-dependence among elements Minimizing GHG emissions Collect statistical data: weather forecast, power sources & consumers Build & execute migration plan Optimization of resource utilization Management of intermittent renewable energy sources Data center vs. network power consumption when migrating data centers Network management and design Development of new network &data center management techniques Flexible, IaaS and cloud management Power oriented & service oriented 5G Network = 4G + Green Increase of mobile users Existing 3G and 4G networks cannot handle data load Need to offload data at nearest node or tower Integration of WiFi and 3G/4G WiFi nodes can be powered by renewable sources 13
