The Green Grid | The Green Grid | WP#75 – SERVER ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN DATA CENTERS AND OFFICES | WP#75 – SERVER ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN DATA CENTERS AND OFFICES / 07 November, 2017 | White Paper | published | This paper illustrates how today’s data center workload is managed and optimized through the presentation of several real-use scenarios. Recognizing that servers deployed into any environment—office, enterprise data center, or cloud data center—are sized to handle a specified workload or set of workloads, we can assess the efficacy of idle power and active efficiency (defined as a weighted geomean[1] active efficiency or active efficiency metric) metrics as a measure of server energy efficiency using the deployed power methodology. The deployed power methodology uses the measured, aggregated SERT performance and power data to determine the number of servers required to meet a large target workload and the data center power use of that group of servers. Comparing the deployed power and active efficiency of servers that pass the idle test with the servers that pass the active efficiency test demonstrates that the use of idle power as a policy tool for regulating server energy efficiency will unfairly exclude higher performance servers from the market. Removing these higher power, higher performing servers from the market could result in over 30 percent higher data center energy consumption (Figure 12) than would occur if an active efficiency metric were used. Furthermore, since the server idle power trend is expected to remain flat or slightly worsen, subsequent tightening of any idle limit will further deplete the number of higher performing servers, resulting in a lost opportunity to minimize data center energy consumption. Based on the robust data presented, including future data center market trends and year-over-year server performance improvement trends, The Green Grid strongly advocates moving away from the server idle power approach and toward the weighted geomean active efficiency metric based on SERT. The Green Grid looks forward to constructive engagement with the stakeholders and the advocacy community.

The Green Grid | The Green Grid | WP#76 – POWER METRICS FOR ITE | WP#76 – POWER METRICS FOR ITE / 23 December, 2017 | White Paper | published | This paper describes the outcome of an initiative undertaken by The Green Grid in early 2017 (WI #17-002) to define a set of metrics that can quantify the power demand and energy consumed of ITE platforms within a data center. The ITE systems are defined as the compute processing, storage and network hardware within the data center. This definition of ITE systems aligns with The Green Grid’s WP#72 tuples that define ICT capacity and utilization metrics. The ITE platforms are a subset of equipment within each ITE system to differentiate between various type of equipment by function, form factor, class, generation, etc. The power demand will provide an indicator of the share of the total capacity that is actually utilized (“ITE power utilization”). The energy (“ITE energy”) will provide an indicator of the total electrical energy consumed over a defined period (typically one year). Trending the power demand over a multi-year timeframe can serve as a useful indicator for future capacity requirements (capital expenditures), while trending energy over a multi-year timeframe can serve as a useful indicator for future operational expenditures. ITE power utilization also serves as a useful proxy for the energy efficiency with which the electrical distribution is supporting the ITE platforms because sub-systems within the electrical distribution are generally more energy efficient at higher utilization. The total power demand metrics across all ITE deal with expected maximum, which means that the peak and minimum demand of a single ITE device may be substantially different at any given time. The goal of these metrics is to better track and communicate how particular ITE platforms are consuming power and energy in pursuit of efficiency, utilization, and the ability to facilitate forecasting future capacity and energy | DATA CENTER KPI | x | x | ||
The Green Grid | The Green Grid | WP#72 – ICT CAPACITY AND UTILIZATION METRICS | WP#72 – ICT CAPACITY AND UTILIZATION METRICS / 23 January, 2017 | White Paper | published | This white paper describes the outcome of an initiative undertaken by The Green Grid in early 2015 to define a metric or set of metrics that can quantify the maximum volume of information and communications technology (ICT) services that can be delivered by a data center for a given investment (“ICT capacity”) and provide an indicator of the share of that capacity that is actually utilized (“ICT utilization”). Utilization can serve as a useful proxy for the energy efficiency with which the ICT services are being delivered because ICT equipment is generally more energy efficient at higher utilization. A doubling of utilization as measured by workload delivered or data stored can be achieved with an energy consumption increase of 4 to 5% as demonstrated by work performed by other work groups within The Green Grid. Thus, energy use is not currently proportional with workload.[1] The metrics proposed in this white paper deal with average utilization, which means that the peak and minimum utilization of a resource may be substantially different. The goal of these metrics is to better track and communicate how particular ICT services are being consumed in pursuit of both efficiency and effectiveness in specific IT data centers.

The Green Grid developed the cooling performance metrics to ensure that, in the bid to save energy, the assessed facility maintains its ability to house and protect equipment during normal and resilient operation as it evolves throughout its life. This white paper presents definitions for the thermal conformance and thermal resilience of the IT as the cooling performance metrics. Using these metrics allows data center owners/operators to observe the compromises that may exist between maintaining acceptable thermal performance and striving for energy efficiency. It includes methods of calculation along with a detailed case study. The white paper also discusses the fact that the Performance Indicator is not limited to these three metrics (or indeed to cooling performance alone) in the long term; rather, additional metrics can be accommodated as they are defined. In order to obtain a complete and accurate assessment of a facility, it is necessary to calculate and display the metrics for the future states of the facility as well as its current state. The Green Grid recommends modeling, simulation, and power and temperature monitoring – all concepts this white paper addresses in detail. Data centers are complex systems, and the various performance metrics are generally intertwined. The Performance Indicator allows the owner/operator to configure changes without excessive focus on a single metric, such as PUE, which could potentially result in stranded capacity or unintended risk. | DATA CENTER KPI | x | x | ||
The Green Grid | The Green Grid | WP#62 – DATA CENTER ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS | WP#62 – DATA CENTER ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS / 11 December, 2014 | White Paper | published | Conducting life cycle assessments (LCAs) to determine a product’s environmental impacts has become relatively mainstream. Applying that same methodology to a data center and its systems is far more challenging due to the variety of data center types and their numbers of suppliers, the lack of applicable component and system data, and the sheer complexity of a data center. To begin to address the difficulties surrounding data center LCAs, The Green Grid, an international, nonprofit consortium working to enhance data center resource efficiency, set out to identify the main environmental impact categories for the typical data center. Drawing on a combination of results from previous studies and the expertise of its members who are experienced in this area, The Green Grid compiled a range of data center environmental impacts, organized them into five main categories, and defined objectives, measurements, and key performance indicators for some of them. The ranked levels provided follow the same 0-to-5 progression as is used in the widely adopted Data Center Maturity Model (DCMM). Using this information, data center owners and operators can better determine their most critical environmental impacts, evaluate those impacts, and take steps to mitigate them. In response to the strong interest expressed by recent participants in The Green Grid Forums, a proposal will be put forth to translate the results of this white paper into a new “Environmental” or “Life Cycle” section in the DCMM. | DATA CENTER Environment | x | x | ||
The Green Grid | The Green Grid | WP#66 – ANALYSIS OF THE SERVER EFFICIENCY RATING TOOL | WP#66 – ANALYSIS OF THE SERVER EFFICIENCY RATING TOOL / 10 November, 2015 | White Paper | published | The Green Grid, a consortium that works to improve IT and data center resource efficiency worldwide, analyzed the Server Efficiency Rating Tool (SERT™) metric data generated by server manufacturers for internal purposes or for their server products to meet the certification requirements of the Version 2.0 ENERGY STAR® specification for Computer Servers. The Green Grid’s goals were to evaluate the efficacy of the SERT test suite as a tool to assess the energy efficiency of server products and to consider its application and use in developing and setting performance/power efficiency thresholds for server products. The Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC®) released Version 1 of the SERT software concurrently with the publication of the Version 2.0 ENERGY STAR Computer Servers Program. Due to this timing, manufacturers had a minimal understanding of how server configuration and component choices would affect the SERT results. The Information Technology Industry Council collected and blinded SERT results from more than 95 machine types/models and 495 configurations. The Green Grid SERT Analysis Working Group analyzed this data to understand the impacts of configuration type and component selection on the SERT efficiency scores. This white paper details the working group’s findings and provides server manufacturers, regulators, and stakeholders information on the strengths and limitations of the SERT tool for assessing the energy efficiency of server products. It also provides recommendations regarding the use of the SERT in mandatory and voluntary server energy efficiency schemas. | SERVER KPI | x | x | ||
The Green Grid | The Green Grid | WP#65 – DATA CENTER AIRFLOW MANAGEMENT CALCULATORS | WP#65 – DATA CENTER AIRFLOW MANAGEMENT CALCULATORS / 22 July, 2015 | White Paper | published | In recent years, the nation and the world, alongside the utility sector, have shown concern over the large energy consumption of data centers. In the U.S., data center electricity use is estimated at approximately 2% of the total national consumption. Data centers, and other high density IT environments of all types, remain a growing energy end-user, as well as one of the most energy intensive facility types in utility portfolios. For a data center facility, implementation of effective Airflow Management (AFM) practices serves as the key to unlock potential fan energy reductions, higher efficiency of mechanical cooling equipment, and additional hours of economizer “free” cooling. Simple steps toward improved airflow management, such as containment aisles and blanking panels used to separate cold air from hot air, not only provide effective temperature control, but can improve cooling system performance, increase data center energy efficiency, and reclaim stranded capacity in existing data centers. Organizations such as The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the U.S. Department of Energy (U.S. DOE), among others, have documented the importance and benefits of AFM best practices. Despite these efforts, and the increasing availability of utility incentive programs willing to support AFM improvements, a widely accepted method for quantifying energy savings that can be realized from AFM measures has yet to be developed. Many electric utilities have strong interest in providing efficiency incentive opportunities for data centers as part of their energy efficiency program mandates. For utility programs offering incentives, customized engineering calculations are typically needed in order to make reliable estimates of energy savings attributed to AFM measures. However, in small to mid-sized data centers (designed for up to 750 kW of critical load), hiring the expertise to assess, recommend, and compute return on investment (ROI) of the energy savings actions to receive utility incentives is often not cost-effective. As a result, many of these energy efficiency opportunities are never pursued. The Green Grid is helping data centers achieve better energy efficiency performance through programs including development of the Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) measurement and The Green Grid’s Data Center Maturity Model (DCMM). However, to further advance energy efficiency, empower a progression towards greater data center maturity, and claim available utility incentives , an energy efficiency calculator widely accepted by both the global data center and utility industry is needed. Substantial variations exist in tools commonly available for evaluation of AFM potential. This paper will review the major publicly available software tools and calculators that exist today, and identify the strengths and weaknesses of each with respect to their applicability in estimating energy savings for utility incentives. Additionally, this paper will define the requirements for a calculator that will meet the needs of utilities and the data center industry. Development of calculators meeting these requirements will enable additional support by utilities and help drive adoption of AFM best practices. | DATA CENTER Energy | x | x | ||
The Green Grid | The Green Grid | WP#59 – PRODUCTIVITY PROXIES VALIDATION STUDY | WP#59 – PRODUCTIVITY PROXIES VALIDATION STUDY / 03 October, 2014 | White Paper | published | The Green Grid started the Productivity Proxies project as a method of approximating “useful work” in data centers. The concept was to develop metrics that were highly correlated to work being produced but that were cheaper, easier, and less intrusive to collect than counting every single transaction and combining them somehow. In addition to the eight proxies proposed by The Green Grid, two additional proxies, IT equipment efficiency (ITEE) and IT equipment utilization (ITEU), were proposed by Japan’s Green IT Promotion Council (GIPC). These became the ninth proxy. This validation study was designed to test the proxies in a laboratory and determine which ones correlated to useful work most accurately, which were easiest to implement, and which showed the most promise of being a generic measure of data center productivity. | DATA CENTER KPI | x | x | ||
The Green Grid | The Green Grid | WP#48 – EVALUATION OF ECO MODE IN UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY SYSTEMS | WP#48 – EVALUATION OF ECO MODE IN UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY SYSTEMS / 24 September, 2012 | White Paper | published | As energy costs rise and the desire to be “green” increases, the need for energy efficiency is becoming more prevalent. Data center operators are reviewing certain aspects of their data centers, including power distribution systems and, in particular, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, to identify opportunities to boost efficiency. Many options to incrementally improve power system efficiency are available to data center operators. These options typically involve either removing or moving components in the power path, changing an aspect of data center operations, or using more efficient components. The Green Grid Data Center Maturity Model includes specific recommendations on many of these potential efficiency improvements in the power system. This white paper addresses one of these efficiency improvement opportunities in depth: Eco Mode operation for three-phase, facility-scale UPSs. An alternating current (AC) UPS can have several modes of operation, of which one is so-called “Eco Mode.” Different levels of efficiency and performance are achievable with the different modes. Typically, Eco Mode is the highest efficiency mode. This white paper focuses on Eco Mode in data center-level, three-phase UPS systems; it does not address smaller, single-phase UPSs. | DATA CENTER Energy | x | x | ||

The Green Grid | The Green Grid | WP#16 – QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF POWER DISTRIBUTION CONFIGURATIONS FOR DATA CENTERS | WP#16 – QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF POWER DISTRIBUTION CONFIGURATIONS FOR DATA CENTERS / 01 December, 2008 | White Paper | published | This analysis builds on the previously released “Qualitative Analysis of Power Distribution Configurations for Data Centers.” [link to white paper 4] It takes a quantitative look at one aspect of the previous paper – efficiency. This paper studies the end-to-end efficiency of eight simplified, non-redundant data center power distribution configurations. The data shows that a data center with optimized implementations of all of the topologies achieve approximately 25% higher efficiency than a typical data center of 10 years ago, delivering between 85% and 90% end-to-end efficiency over a wide load range. The highest efficiency AC and DC configurations are within 1% to 2% of each other and are only 2% to 3% better than double conversion 480Vac – 208Vac over the majority of the load range. No single configuration provides the highest efficiency at every load. | DATA CENTER Energy | x | x | ||
The Green Grid | The Green Grid | OPEN STANDARD FOR DATACENTER AVAILABILITY TOOL | OPEN STANDARD FOR DATACENTER AVAILABILITY TOOL / 19 June, 2018 | Tool | published | OSDA or the Open Standard for Datacenter Availability was kicked off by The Green Grid early in 2016 to create an availability classification and rating system that is intended to promote innovation in energy efficiency and sustainable designs of data centers. A high-level overview of the initiative is provided by White Paper #71. The online tool allows users to compare data center designs using the OSDA scale. The OSDA score will give a relative comparison of designs and NOT an absolute value for availability and reliability. This is intentional, since predicting actual design performance is fraught with complexity and assumptions. | DATA CENTER Energy | x | x | ||

W3C | Web of Things | https://www.w3.org/TR/2021/WD-wot-discovery-20210602/ | Web of Things (WoT) Discovery / W3C Working Draft 2 June 2021 | published | The W3C Web of Things (WoT) is intended to enable interoperability across IoT platforms and application domains. One key mechanism for accomplishing this goal is the definition and use of metadata describing the interactions an IoT device or service makes available over the network at a suitable level of abstraction. The WoT Thing Description specification satisfies this objective. However, in order to use a Thing its Thing Description first has to be obtained. The WoT Discovery process described in this document addresses this problem. WoT Discovery needs to support the distribution of WoT Thing Descriptions in a variety of use cases. This includes ad-hoc and engineered systems; during development and at runtime; and on both local and global networks. The process also needs to work with existing discovery mechanisms, be secure, protect private information, and be able to efficiently handle updates to WoT Thing Descriptions and the dynamic and diverse nature of the IoT ecosystem. The WoT Discovery process is divided into two phases, Introduction, and Exploration. The Introduction phase leverages existing discovery mechanisms but does not directly expose metadata; they are simply used to discover Exploration services, which provide metadata but only after secure authentication and authorization. This document normatively defines two Exploration services, one for WoT Thing self-description with a single WoT Thing Description and a searchable WoT Thing Description Directory service for collections of Thing Descriptions. A variety of Introduction services are also described and where necessary normative definitions are given to support them. | IoT | x | x | ||
W3C | Web of Things | https://www.w3.org/TR/2021/NOTE-wot-usecases-20210518/ | Web of Things (WoT): Use Cases and Requirements / W3C Interest Group Note 18 May 2021 | published | The Web of Things is applicable to multiple IoT domains, including Smart Home, Industrial, Smart City, Retail, and Health applications, where usage of the W3C WoT standards can simplify the development of IoT systems that combine devices from multiple vendors and ecosystems. During the last charter period of the WoT Working Group several specifications were developed to address requirements for these domains. This Use Cases and Requirements Document is created to collect new IoT use cases from various domains that have been contributed by various stakeholders. These serve as a baseline for identifying requirements for the standardization work in the W3C WoT groups. | IoT | x | x | ||
W3C | Web of Things | https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/WD-wot-profile-20201124/ | Web of Things (WoT) Profile / W3C First Public Working Draft 24 November 2020 | published | The WoT Profile Specification defines a Profiling Mechanism and a WoT Core Profile, which enables out of the box interoperability among things and devices. Out of the box interoperability implies, that devices can be integrated into various application scenarios without deep level adaptations. Typically only minor configuration operations are necessary (such as entering a network key, or IP address) to use the device in a certain scenario. These actions can be done by anyone without specific training. The WoT Core Profile defines a set of constraints and rules, which compliant thing descriptions have to adopt to guarantee interoperability. These rules are prescriptive, to ensure that compliant implementations satisfy the semantic guarantees implied by them. We call this set of rules a Profile. The WoT Profile Specification as defined in this document serves two purposes: It defines a generic Profiling Mechanism which provides a mechanism to describe a profile in an unambiguous way. This mechanism can be used to define additional profiles. In addition, it defines a WoT Core Profile of the Thing Description, which consists of a core data model and protocol binding rules. The WoT Core Profile formalizes the results of several PlugFests that were conducted by the WoT Interest Group and of tests that were conducted as part of the development. This document incudes a binding of the core data model to HTTP(S) and selected notification sub-protocols. The core data model can be bound to other protocols – it is expected that bindings to other protocols (e.g. MQTT, CoAP) will be defined in the near future. A TD that is compliant to the core profile MUST adhere to both the constraints on the data model and the protocol binding. Devices that constrain their use of the Thing Description to the WoT Core Profile can interoperate with each other out-of-the-box. | IoT | x | x | ||
W3C | Web of Things | https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/NOTE-wot-scripting-api-20201124/ | Web of Things (WoT) Scripting API / W3C Working Group Note 24 November 2020 | published | The Web of Things is made of entities (Things) that can describe their capabilities in a machine-interpretable Thing Description (TD) and expose these capabilities through the WoT Interface, that is, network interactions modeled as Properties (for reading and writing values), Actions (to execute remote procedures with or without return values) and Events (for signaling notifications). The main Web of Things (WoT) concepts are described in the Web of Things Architecture specification. Scripting is an optional building block in WoT and it is typically used in gateways or browsers that are able to run a WoT Runtime and script management, providing a convenient way to extend WoT support to new types of endpoints and implement WoT applications such as Thing Directory. This document describes an application programming interface (API) representing the WoT Interface that allows scripts to discover, operate Things and to expose locally defined Things characterized by WoT Interactions specified by a script. The APIs defined in this document deliberately follow the Web of Things Thing Description specification closely. It is possible to implement more abstract APIs on top of them, or implementing directly the WoT network facing interface (i.e. the WoT Interface). | IoT | x | x | ||
W3C | Web of Things | https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/REC-wot-thing-description-20200409/ | Web of Things (WoT) Thing Description / W3C Recommendation 9 April 2020 (Link errors corrected 23 June 2020) | published | This document describes a formal model and a common representation for a Web of Things (WoT) Thing Description. A Thing Description describes the metadata and interfaces of Things, where a Thing is an abstraction of a physical or virtual entity that provides interactions to and participates in the Web of Things. Thing Descriptions provide a set of interactions based on a small vocabulary that makes it possible both to integrate diverse devices and to allow diverse applications to interoperate. Thing Descriptions, by default, are encoded in a JSON format that also allows JSON-LD processing. The latter provides a powerful foundation to represent knowledge about Things in a machine-understandable way. A Thing Description instance can be hosted by the Thing itself or hosted externally when a Thing has resource restrictions (e.g., limited memory space) or when a Web of Things-compatible legacy device is retrofitted with a Thing Description. | IoT | x | x | ||
W3C | Web of Things | https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/REC-wot-architecture-20200409/ | Web of Things (WoT) Architecture / W3C Recommendation 9 April 2020 | published | The W3C Web of Things (WoT) is intended to enable interoperability across IoT platforms and application domains. Overall, the goal of the WoT is to preserve and complement existing IoT standards and solutions. In general, the W3C WoT architecture is designed to describe what exists rather than to prescribe what to implement. This WoT Architecture specification describes the abstract architecture for the W3C Web of Things. This abstract architecture is based on a set of requirements that were derived from use cases for multiple application domains, both given in this document. A set of modular building blocks are also identified whose detailed specifications are given in other documents. This document describes how these building blocks are related and work together. The WoT abstract architecture defines a basic conceptual framework that can be mapped onto a variety of concrete deployment scenarios, several examples of which are given. However, the abstract architecture described in this specification does not itself define concrete mechanisms or prescribe any concrete implementation. | IoT | x | x | ||
W3C | Web of Things | https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/NOTE-wot-binding-templates-20200130/ | Web of Things (WoT) Binding Templates / W3C Working Group Note 30 January 2020 | published | W3C Web of Things enables applications to interact with and orchestrate connected Things at Web scale. The standardized abstract interaction model exposed by the WoT Thing Description enables applications to scale and evolve independently of the individual Things. Many network-level protocols and standards for connected Things have already been developed, and have millions of devices deployed in the field today. These standards are converging on a common set of transport protocols and transfer layers, but each has peculiar content formats, payload schemas, and data types. Despite using unique formats and data models, the high-level interactions exposed by most connected things can be modeled using the Property, Action, and Event interaction affordances of the WoT Thing Description. Binding Templates enable a Thing Description to be adapted to the specific protocol or data payload usage across the different standards. This is done through additional descriptive vocabulary that is used in the Thing Description. This document describes the initial set of vocabulary extensions to the WoT Thing Description that make up the Binding Templates. It is expected over time that additional protocols and payload structures will be accommodated by further extending the Binding Templates. | IoT | x | x | ||

CSA | Electrical area | CAN/CSA-C62301:11 (R2021) | Household electrical appliances – Measurement of standby power | published | CSA Preface This is the second edition of CAN/CSA-C62301, Household electrical appliances — Measurement of standby power, which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of the identically titled IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) Standard 62301 (second edition, 2011-01). It supersedes the previous edition published in 2007 as CAN/CSA-C62301 (adopted CEI/IEC 62301:2005). This Standard is a horizontal Standard, i.e., it specifies fundamental principles, concepts, terminology, and technical characteristics for ensuring uniformity among Standards on household electrical appliances and similar products. Product Standard technical committees are encouraged to use this Standard in conjunction with their product Standards. When a product Standard specifies standby power levels or includes other requirements that supplement or modify the requirements of this Standard, the requirements of the product Standard should take precedence. CSA acknowledges that the development of this Standard was made possible, in part, by the financial support of Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), BC Hydro, Conserve Nova Scotia, Manitoba Hydro, and the Ontario Ministry of Energy (OME). This Standard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the Standard. This Standard was reviewed for Canadian adoption by the CSA Subcommittee on Household Electrical Appliances — Measurement of Standby Power, under the jurisdiction of the CSA Technical Committee on Residential Equipment and the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Performance, Energy Efficiency, and Renewables, and has been formally approved by the Technical Committee. This Standard has been approved as a National Standard of Canada by the Standards Council of Canada. Scope This International Standard specifies methods of measurement of electrical power consumption in standby mode(s) and other low power modes (off mode and network mode), as applicable. It is applicable to electrical products with a rated input voltage or voltage range that lies wholly or partly in the range 100 V a.c. to 250 V a.c. for single phase products and 130 V a.c. to 480 V a.c. for other products. The objective of this standard is to provide a method of test to determine the power consumption of a range of products in relevant low power modes (see 3.4), generally where the product is not in active mode (i.e. not performing a primary function). NOTE 1 The measurement of energy consumption and performance of products during intended use are generally specified in the relevant product standards and are not covered by this standard. NOTE 2 The term products in this standard means energy using products such as household appliances or other equipment within the scope of TC 59. However, the measurement methodology could be applied to other products. NOTE 3 Where this International standard is referenced by performance standards or procedures, these should define and name the relevant low power modes (see 3.4) to which this test procedure is applied. NOTE 4 The inclusion of DC powered products within the scope of this standard is under consideration. This standard does not specify safety requirements. It does not specify minimum performance requirements nor does it set maximum limits on power or energy consumption. | ED power consumption | x | x | ||
CSA | Electrical area | CSA C510:21 | Ideal state benchmarking and application of benchmark energy factor for data centres | published | This is the first edition of CSA C510, Ideal state benchmarking and application of benchmark energy factor for data centres. This Standard applies to the use of electrical energy for data centres. CSA acknowledges that the development of this Standard was made possible, in part, by the financial support of BC Hydro, Efficiency Manitoba, Hydro Quebec, Canadian Electricity Association, Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO), Nova Scotia Department of Energy and Mines, EfficiencyOne, and NEEA. This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group. Scope 1.1 This Standard specifies the framework and calculation models for essential energy benchmarking of data centres as a new form of ideal-state benchmarking for energy performance. It provides the specifications necessary to benchmark the energy efficiency performance of a data centre by using a dimensionless indicator called the benchmark energy factor (BEF). This Standard is a reference document for the application of essential energy benchmarking to data centres. The essential energy model is based on best available technology (BAT) and fundamental thermal, mechanical, electrical, and/or work-load components. The BAT is determined independent of cost and, in most cases, independent of the equipment that is currently in use within a data centre that is using this Standard. Exceptions are provided for when a data centre is using IT equipment that is not covered by the essential energy models. This Standard applies to the use of electrical energy for the data centre. Data centres that are included within the scope of this Standard include data centres with a minimum IT load of 100 kW that are typically used in enterprises, government, institutional (hospital and university), and other facilities where the organization has influence over the equipment and a vested interest in the energy consumption of the data centre. This can include third-party managed data centres when the above conditions are met. 1.2 Specifically excluded from the scope of this Standard are the following: a) colo data centres – given that the data centre operator does not usually have control over the IT equipment or the software environment; b) telco data centres – given that the majority of equipment is specialized hardware equipment that is not currently supported by the essential energy models; and c) data centres that have the cost of electricity embedded in the rent – given that there is no direct financial benefit to improving the energy efficiency of the data centre. 1.3 In this Standard, shall is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; should is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and may is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Standard. Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material. Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements. Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (nonmandatory) to define their application. | DATA CENTER Energy Performance | x | x | ||

Depending on the physical layer in use (e.g., IEEE 802.15.4™, IEEE 802.11™, IEEE 1901™, IEEE 1901.2™), a variety of lower layer protocols may be involved in providing a complete solution. Generally, lower layer protocols are not discussed in this standard except where theree is direct interaction with the application protocol. Scope: This standard defines the application layer with TCP/IP providing functions in the transport and Internet layers to enable utility management of the end user energy environment, including demand response, load control, time of day pricing, management of distributed generation, electric vehicles, etc. Depending on the physical layer in use (e.g., IEEE 802.15.4™, IEEE 802.11™, IEEE 1901™, IEEE 1901.2™), a variety of lower layer protocols may be involved in providing a complete solution. Generally, lower layer protocols are not discussed in this standard except where there is direct interaction with the application protocol. Purpose: The purpose of this document is to define the application protocol to enable utility management of the end user energy environment, including demand response, load control, time of day pricing, management of distributed generation, electric vehicles, etc. The defined application profile sources elements from many existing standards, including IEC 61968 and IEC 61850, and follows a RESTful architecture (Fielding [B3]) using IETF protocols such as HTTP. | SMART GRID | |||||
IEFT | CoAP – Constrained Application Protocol | RFC 7252 Constrained Application Protocol | Published | The Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) is a specialized web transfer protocol for use with constrained nodes and constrained networks in the Internet of Things. The protocol is designed for machine-to-machine (M2M) applications such as smart energy and building automation. Like HTTP, CoAP is based on the REST model: Servers make resources available under a URL, and clients access these resources using methods such as GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE. The Internet of Things will need billions of nodes, many of which will need to be inexpensive. CoAP has been designed to work on microcontrollers with as low as 10 KiB of RAM and 100 KiB of code space (RFC 7228). | IoT | x | ||||

IFTTT | IFTTT – If This Then That | IFTTT – If This Then That | Published | IFTTT is an automation tool that requires no coding knowledge. It employs the following concepts: Services describe a series of data from a certain web service, and also can describe actions controlled with certain APIs. Each service has a particular set of triggers and actions. Triggers are the “this” part of an applet. They are the items that trigger the action. Actions are the “that” part of an applet. They are the output that results from the input of the trigger. Applets (formerly known as recipes) are the predicates made from Triggers and Actions. Ingredients are basic data available from a trigger. | IoT | |||||
OASIS | AMQP – Advanced Message Queueing Protocol | AMQP – Advanced Message Queueing Protocol | Published | The OASIS AMQP TC is vendor-neutral and platform-agnostic protocol that offers organizations an easier, more secure approach to passing real-time data streams and business transactions. The goal of AMQP is to ensure information is safely and efficiently transported between applications, among organizations, across distributed cloud computing environments, and within mobile infrastructures. AMQP avoids proprietary technologies, offering the potential to lower the cost of enterprise middleware software integrations through open interoperability. By enabling a commoditized, multi-vendor ecosystem, AMQP seeks to create opportunities for transforming the way business is done in the Cloud and over the Internet. AMQP is a binary, application layer protocol, designed to efficiently support a wide variety of messaging applications and communication patterns. It provides flow controlled, message-oriented communication with message-delivery guarantees such as at-most-once (where each message is delivered once or never), at-least-once (where each message is certain to be delivered, but may do so multiple times) and exactly-once (where the message will always certainly arrive and do so only once), and authentication and/or encryption based on SASL and/or TLS. It assumes an underlying reliable transport layer protocol such as Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). The AMQP specification is defined in several layers: (i) a type system, (ii) a symmetric, asynchronous protocol for the transfer of messages from one process to another, (iii) a standard, extensible message format and (iv) a set of standardised but extensible ‘messaging capabilities.’ | IoT | x | ||||

IEFT | RFC 6455 The WebSocket Protocol | RFC 6455 The WebSocket Protocol | Published | Historically, creating web applications that need bidirectional communication between a client and a server (e.g., instant messaging and gaming applications) has required an abuse of HTTP to poll the server for updates while sending upstream notifications as distinct HTTP calls [RFC6202]. This results in a variety of problems: o The server is forced to use a number of different underlying TCP connections for each client: one for sending information to the client and a new one for each incoming message. o The wire protocol has a high overhead, with each client-to-server message having an HTTP header. o The client-side script is forced to maintain a mapping from the outgoing connections to the incoming connection to track replies. A simpler solution would be to use a single TCP connection for traffic in both directions. This is what the WebSocket Protocol provides. Combined with the WebSocket API [WSAPI], it provides an alternative to HTTP polling for two-way communication from a web page to a remote server. The WebSocket Protocol is designed to supersede existing bidirectional communication technologies that use HTTP as a transport layer to benefit from existing infrastructure (proxies, filtering, authentication). Such technologies were implemented as trade-offs between efficiency and reliability because HTTP was not initially meant to be used for bidirectional communication (see [RFC6202] for further discussion). The WebSocket Protocol attempts to address the goals of existing bidirectional HTTP technologies in the context of the existing HTTP infrastructure; as such, it is designed to work over HTTP ports 80 and 443 as well as to support HTTP proxies and intermediaries, even if this implies some complexity specific to the current environment. However, the design does not limit WebSocket to HTTP, and future implementations could use a simpler handshake over a dedicated port without reinventing the entire protocol. This last point is important because the traffic patterns of interactive messaging do not closely match standard HTTP traffic and can induce unusual loads on some components. | Web applications | x | ||||
IEFT | RFC 1157 SNMP – Simple Network Management Protocol | Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an Internet Standard protocol for collecting and organizing information about managed devices on IP networks and for modifying that information to change device behaviour. Devices that typically support SNMP include cable modems, routers, switches, servers, workstations, printers, etc. SNMP is widely used in network management for network monitoring. SNMP exposes management data in the form of variables on the managed systems organized in a management information base (MIB) which describe the system status and configuration. These variables can then be remotely queried (and, in some circumstances, manipulated) by managing applications. Three significant versions of SNMP have been developed and deployed. SNMPv1 is the original version of the protocol. More recent versions, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3, feature improvements in performance, flexibility and security. SNMP is a component of the Internet Protocol Suite as defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It consists of a set of standards for network management, including an application layer protocol, a database schema, and a set of data objects. | x | |||||||
W3C | SOAP – Simple object access protocol | SOAP is a messaging protocol specification for exchanging structured information in the implementation of web services in computer networks. It uses XML Information Set for its message format, and relies on application layer protocols, most often Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), although some legacy systems communicate over Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), for message negotiation and transmission. SOAP allows developers to invoke processes running on disparate operating systems (such as Windows, macOS, and Linux) to authenticate, authorize, and communicate using Extensible Markup Language (XML). Since Web protocols like HTTP are installed and running on all operating systems, SOAP allows clients to invoke web services and receive responses independent of language and platforms. | Applicatons | x | x | |||||
IEFT | Internet Standard STD 8 Telnet | Telnet is an application protocol used on the Internet or local area network to provide a bidirectional interactive text-oriented communication facility using a virtual terminal connection.

IEFT | ftp – File Transfer Protocol | The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard communication protocol used for the transfer of computer files from a server to a client on a computer network. FTP is built on a client–server model architecture using separate control and data connections between the client and the server. FTP users may authenticate themselves with a clear-text sign-in protocol, normally in the form of a username and password, but can connect anonymously if the server is configured to allow it. For secure transmission that protects the username and password, and encrypts the content, FTP is often secured with SSL/TLS (FTPS) or replaced with SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP). | Communication | x | ||||||
IEFT | HTTP – Hyper Text Transfer Protocol | HTTP functions as a request–response protocol in the client–server model. A web browser, for example, may be the client whereas a process, named web server, running on a computer hosting one or more websites may be the server. The client submits an HTTP request message to the server. The server, which provides resources such as HTML files and other content or performs other functions on behalf of the client, returns a response message to the client. The response contains completion status information about the request and may also contain requested content in its message body. A web browser is an example of a user agent (UA). Other types of user agent include the indexing software used by search providers (web crawlers), voice browsers, mobile apps, and other software that accesses, consumes, or displays web content. HTTP is designed to permit intermediate network elements to improve or enable communications between clients and servers. High-traffic websites often benefit from web cache servers that deliver content on behalf of upstream servers to improve response time. Web browsers cache previously accessed web resources and reuse them, whenever possible, to reduce network traffic. HTTP proxy servers at private network boundaries can facilitate communication for clients without a globally routable address, by relaying messages with external servers. To allow intermediate HTTP nodes (proxy servers, web caches, etc.) to accomplish their functions, some of the HTTP headers (found in HTTP requests/responses) are managed hop-by-hop whereas other HTTP headers are managed end-to-end (managed only by the source client and by the target web server). | Communication | x | ||||||
ASHRAE | Standing Standard Project Committee 135 | Standard 135-2020 — BACnet — A Data Communication Protocol for Building Automation and Control Networks (ANSI Approved) | BACnet, the ASHRAE building automation and control networking protocol, has been designed specifically to meet the communication needs of building automation and control systems for applications such as heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning control; fire and other life safety and security systems; energy management; lighting control; physical access control; and elevator monitoring systems. The BACnet protocol provides mechanisms by which computerized equipment of arbitrary function may exchange information, regardless of the particular building service it performs. As a result, the BACnet protocol may be used by mobile and cloud-hosted devices, head-end computers, general-purpose direct digital controllers, and application-specific or unitary controllers with equal effect. This protocol provides a comprehensive set of messages for conveying encoded building automation data between devices: * Hardware binary input and output values * Hardware analogue input and output values * Software data values * Schedule information * Alarm and event information * Trend and event logs * Files * Control logic * Application specific data for a large range of building services * Network configuration including security The 2020 edition of Standard 135 includes many new capabilities and several clarifications. New capabilities include lighting and elevator device profiles that provide a standardized description for these types of devices, along with audit reporting and logging to capture auditable actions. BACnet Secure Connect, a BACnet datalink layer, was also added. This datalink is fully compatible with all existing BACnet datalinks and provides an interoperable secure path for BACnet communications. | SMART HOME |
