Green ICT Crucial to the Future of UK Education and Research

JISC is launching a three-year programme of activity to support colleges and universities with their decision-making process in green and environmental technology. The programme kicked off this month with invitations to universities and colleges to bid for funding for projects to investigate Green ICT and to run exemplar projects in energy use reduction and integration of estates and IT. The activity capitalises on the outcomes from the JISC-funded SusteIT project, which delivered a report entitled Sustainable ICT in Further and Higher Education in January of this year.
