Abstract :
In terms of the commercial sector´s overall energy demand, lighting, heating, and air conditioning still dominate, but the rapid growth in ICT energy consumption is drawing scrutiny from the people tasked with finding energy efficiencies. The energy appetite of the IT infrastructure is increasing every day, making it a prime target for cost control. Network energy management might be the solution.
