Green IT – Analysis of the life cycle

Sustainable digital, or Green IT, designates all the actions implemented to reduce the environmental, social and economic impacts of digital on the scale of an organization. All the major areas of the information system are concerned: workstations, impressions, networks and telephony, computer centers, to the more sustainable design of the organization’s software and services, without forgetting the Purchase of Ti Responsible, management of the end of life of equipment (electronic waste), governance and management of this process.

Life cycle analysis (ACV) or Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in English is the only internationally recognized method for assessing the environmental impacts related to ICT. It consists of studying the different stages of life of a product or service, from the extraction of raw materials to the end of life of the equipment, passing through its manufacture, use and recycling. The objective is to understand the primary sources of impact and define the actions to be implemented to reduce them.

By following this ACV and digital training, you will have the opportunity to master ACV standards, apply them to digital fields, conduct an environmental assessment of a digital service or an information system via Simplified Screening type ACV, and identify eco-design levers. You can contribute to a more sustainable world by implementing ecological practices in computer science.

Training program

• Understand the challenges of ACVs;
• Master the standards and the regulatory framework associated with ACV;
• Define the objectives and perimeter of the study (system borders, cuts of cuts, etc.);
• Choose the appropriate tools, impact factors and indicators;
• Collect inventory data;
• Evaluate the impacts;
• Interpret the results of an ACV;
• Pass “ACV and Digital” certification.

Prerequisite

This training is intended for technical and non-technical profiles.

Ideally, having followed the ECO or GRI training or mastering the fundamentals of responsible digital technology and has already taken part in a computer project design/realization/management project.
