Panel Discussion: Moving Towards...
summary
Panel lists concrete numbers and tools: data centers and networks each use ~1–1.5% of global electricity, telco ~2–3%, and 5G can be 5–10× more efficient per bit but needs up to 80–100× more antennas. Practical claims: node idle ≈40% of PSU rating and hypervisors add ~20% overhead. Demonstrations and prototypes include Kepler measures per‑pod energy and workload placement using electricityMaps/Wattime APIs; runtime work uses Liquid Metal microVMs. Main asks: provider APIs for realtime carbon and richer power metrics.
