Connecting devices to the internet has profound implications for energy use, in three areas: Digitalisation, Wasted Energy and
Policy Brief – Wireless Charging Energy Use
This briefing summarises the key findings of the EDNA report Global Forecast of Energy Use for Wireless Charging, which estimates the additional global energy that would be consumed if wireless charging is adopted for a wide range of small consumer devices
Policy Brief – Energy Harvesting Technologies for IoT
This briefing summarises the key findings of the EDNA report Energy Harvesting Technologies for IoT Edge Devices, which explores the potential to deploy Energy Harvesting Technologies (EHTs) to convert energy from the surroundings into electricity, in order to power small internet of things (IoT) devices
Test Procedures for Measuring Network Standby Power
This paper examines elements of existing test procedures that address network standby in some way. This includes horizontal test procedures that cover standby and network standby for a wide range of products, as well as product-specific procedures where network functionality is a common or essential feature of the product
Global Forecast of Energy Use for Wireless Charging
In this report, we have built on the modeling methodology published in a recent white paper by Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and Suzanne Foster Porter of Kannah Consulting
Bridging the Network Standby Gap between Mobile and Mains-Powered Products
An integrated, energy-optimal design approach, in which disparate engineering teams collaborate iteratively toward energy optimization goals (including low network standby energy use), is currently the
Getting to Zero: An Evaluation of Zero Network Standby Power
This report examines the feasibility and economics of achieving network zero in three different products: mini-split HVAC systems, smart speakers, and connected light bulbs. We investigate the range of network standby
Total Energy Model for Connected Devices
The objective of this study is to develop a quantitative model of the “total energy use” of connected devices, globally. This report (and model) aims to quantify the total additional energy that results from devices becoming connected to a communications network
Intelligent Efficiency for Data Centres and Wide Area Networks
This report discusses the energy consumption of data centres (DC) and the wide area network (WAN) which connects computers and other devices together on the internet. These are complex
