Overview of FG Deliverable 1Definitions Editor’s Group of Deliverable 1 Yoh Somemura, (NTT) chairman Takeshi Origuchi, (NTT) chief editor Jean-Manuel Canet, (France Telecom Group) co-editor Catalina McGregor, (UK) co-editor Geir Leirvik, (Juniper Networks) co-editor Hossam Allam, (CEDARE) co-editor Noriyuki Nakayama (NEC) co-editor Richard Price (BT) co-editor International Telecommunication Union
Scope The scope of FG Deliverable 1 was to create a common framework on which to build methodology, recognize gaps and define metrics to reach the goals of the Focus Group : Understand and mitigate negative impact of ICT on climate change (raw material extraction, production, use phase, end of life), increasing in particular the efficiency of equipment, networks and organisations. Understand and encourage positive impact (for instance travel substitution, product substitution, smart buildings… ) : reducing GHG emissions Understand and encourage measurement and monitoring of climate change impacts International Telecommunication Union International Telecommunication Union 2
Domains of definitions • FG Deliverable 1 covers the following domains of definitions: • Climate Change • Information and Communication Technologies • Energy and links between energy and climate change • Climate change impact assessment • Relationship between climate change and economics impacts • Energy efficiency of ICT • Deliverable 1 principally refers to: • IPCC definitions • ISO definitions

Rebound effect For some services brought by ICT such as telework or videoconferencing, the time gained for an end-user when using the telecom service may cause some additional usages – telecom or physical - which are difficult to track. These additional usages can be defined as “rebound effect”. There is ongoing research on this topic.
