Everyday examples of ICT use<\/h2>\n\n\n

\nHow much does your TV consume? Calculate now!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nWhy is ICT relevant for the environment?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Environmental impacts do not arise \"in the product\" but during the manufacture of components, through:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Use of high energy <\/strong>with harmful emissions<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Use of environmentally harmful chemicals<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Use of scarce and environmentally critical raw materials<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Semiconductor components are particularly harmful in production. These include \"ICs\" or \"chips\" manufactured in clean rooms. These components can account for over 50 % of the manufacturing costs of a cell phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How harmful to the environment is chip production currently1<\/a><\/sup>?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The smaller the structure size, the higher the power requirement per wafer during production:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- 28 nm chip: approx. 400 kWh<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- < 10 nm chip: up to 1200 kWh<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Emissions in the semiconductor industry worldwide:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
176 million tons of CO2<\/sub> equivalent in 2022 (this corresponds approximately to the total emissions of the Netherlands)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Daily water consumption of a semiconductor factory:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Up to 99 million liters (demand of 220,000 German four-person households), 75% of which for production processes<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Up to 50 million liters of ultrapure water (UPW). 1.5 liters of tap water is required per liter of UPW.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- 20 million liters for cooling and air filtration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
What raw materials are in ICT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Various raw materials are used in information and communication technologies. Some of these are:<\/p>\n\n\n
\n![\"In](\"https:\/\/greenict.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/materials-in-ict.jpg\")
<\/a>\u00a9 Fraunhofer Mikroelektronik<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n\nThe problem:<\/strong> These raw materials are often mined under dangerous conditions in countries without appropriate social and environmental standards and are sometimes difficult to obtain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\nHow can ICT be made greener?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Green ICT encompasses a variety of approaches that deal with different aspects of the ICT life cycle:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Reduction of energy consumption in use<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Reduction of energy and material consumption in production<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Reduction of harmful substances in products and manufacturing processes<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Recycling to recover raw materials<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Sustainable product design and manufacture of hardware that is as durable as possible <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Resource-saving software programming (green software engineering)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Use of IT to reduce the energy consumption of another source (e.g. traffic, heating systems)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What can I do myself?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- For example, buying used electronics! Purchasing refurbished products saves resources and is also cheaper.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Keep your cell phone longer. A cell phone usage period of 5 years including a battery change already reduces the annual emissions of a cell phone by as much as 31%<\/strong>2<\/a><\/sup>!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Savings when buying a used smartphone3<\/a><\/sup>:<\/h3>\n\n\n

What does the Green ICT @ FMD competence center do?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The aim is to use the structures created in the FMD<\/span><\/a> (13 research institutes, including 11 Fraunhofer and 2 Leibniz) for application-oriented microelectronics research to support an expansion in terms of resource conservation and reduction of the carbon footprint<\/strong> in the further development of ICT applications and ICT infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Three core technology projects, the Green ICT Hubs, are researching and working on making ICT greener:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Hub 1: Sensor edge cloud systems<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Hub 2: Energy-saving communication infrastructures<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Hub 3: Resource-optimized electronics production<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
