ITU-T L.1430-2013
Scope
This Recommendation describes principles@ concepts@ requirements and methods to provide specific guidance for assessment of the environmental impact of information and communication technology (ICT) greenhouse gas (GHG) projects and ICT energy projects. The methodology has been developed from the ICT perspective and is intended to assist in quantifying@ monitoring and reporting GHG emission reductions or removal enhancements@ energy consumption reductions@ and enhancements of energy generation and storage in ICT GHG and ICT energy projects. This Recommendation is a complement to [ISO 14064-2] and [b-Project Protocol] and provides additional requirements and guidance to complement [ITU-T L.1410] in: identifying GHG sources@ sinks and storage systems relevant to ICT GHG projects identifying energy consumers@ generators and storage systems relevant to ICT energy projects determining the baseline scenario identifying GHG sources@ sinks and storage systems relevant to the baseline scenario identifying energy consumers@ generators and storage systems relevant to the baseline scenario selecting relevant GHG sources@ sinks and storage systems as well as relevant energy consumers@ generators and storage systems for monitoring or estimating GHG and energy effects quantifying GHG emissions and removals as well as energy consumptions quantifying GHG emission reductions and removal enhancements as well as energy consumption reductions@ and energy generation and energy storage enhancements managing data quality monitoring ICT GHG and energy projects documenting ICT GHG and energy projects validating and verifying ICT GHG and energy projects reporting on ICT GHG and energy projects.
