Abstract :
We examine how to redesign the Internet for an energy-constrained future powered by diffuse, intermittent, and expensive power sources. We consider the types of constraints this might place upon the Internet architecture and the manner in which important network components can function in this new environment. We then attempt to chart a path forward for future research.
