项目摘要

STG Advisors is tackling the climate emergency head on. We're developing an innovative IT **energy efficiency** and **transparency** tool, which can be used to improve poorly utilised hardware, poorly designed software, poorly integrated technology and inefficient operations. This tool will empower it's user in the race to deliver net-zero targets in IT.This innovation responds directly to the challenge of accelerating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that result from accelerating global digitalisation, as well as the lack of transparency around where the emissions are generated within IT hardware and software. As the adoption of cloud computing has exploded, IT efficiency has stalled, and IT transparency has become quite literally lost in the cloud.Our project will use transparency to make IT more efficient. We're building a small piece of software that can be deployed seamlessly to any server. It will gather energy consumption and computational processing data to paint a picture of what is running where. We'll use machine learning to help identify what is running inefficiently, and we'll create a dashboard that empowers the user with insights and executable recommendations for improving their IT energy efficiency. It will be scalable to thousands of servers, and eventually deployable to desktops and other devices.Energy efficiency of IT is the first benefit, but it's not the only benefit. Eventually it can be used to help companies comply with their ESG reporting obligations, or help companies procure more sustainably. It can help customers choose the best product, or help employees choose employers that are delivering on their emissions pledges.It is, in short, a potentially gamechanging innovation in the fight against climate change.

STG Advisors正在积极应对气候紧急情况。我们正在开发一种创新的IT ** 能源效率 ** 和 ** 透明度 ** 工具，可用于改善利用率低的硬件、设计差的软件、集成差的技术和低效的运营。该工具将使其用户能够在IT领域实现净零排放目标。这一创新直接应对了全球数字化加速导致的温室气体（GHG）排放加速以及IT硬件和软件中排放来源缺乏透明度的挑战。随着云计算的普及，IT效率停滞不前，IT透明度在云中已经完全消失。我们的项目将使用透明度来提高IT效率。我们正在构建一小部分软件，可以无缝部署到任何服务器。它将收集能源消耗和计算处理数据，以描绘出什么在哪里运行的画面。我们将使用机器学习来帮助识别哪些设备运行效率低下，并创建一个仪表板，为用户提供见解和可执行的建议，以提高其IT能效。它将可扩展到数千台服务器，并最终部署到桌面和其他设备。IT的能源效率是第一个好处，但它不是唯一的好处。最终，它可以用来帮助公司遵守其ESG报告义务，或帮助公司更可持续地采购。它可以帮助客户选择最好的产品，或者帮助员工选择履行排放承诺的雇主。简而言之，它是应对气候变化的一项潜在的改变游戏规则的创新。
