Specialist Task Force 516:
Mandate M/462 Efficient energy use in fixed and mobile ICT networks

Who we are:

  • Michael Gilmore, e-Ready Building Limited
Team Members:
  • Mark Acton, CBRE
  • Raffaele Bolla, CNIT
  • Gilles Dretsch, Orange
  • Guillaume Gerard, Orange
  • Philippe Moretto, GNSS

What we do

STF 516 is preparing European Norms (ENs) to fulfil Mandate M/462 according to the analysis reported in the Phase 1 and 2 reports in relation to the Mandate. This activity addresses the first set of ENs identified as being of highest priority in this proposal.

The ENs address:
- equipment and system standards: these standards have to take into account the most efficient solutions in order to minimize energy consumption and to optimize end-of-life environmental impacts.
- KPIs with methodologies to determine equipment energy efficiency: standardized and simple test procedures to determine power consumption and relevant service use by equipment.
- standardized global indicators (ratios): to monitor the improvement of overall efficiency of operational networks - these ratios provide recognized energy efficiency trends for sites and networks in order to define the efficiency level of each ICT network segment.
- methodologies to evaluate Information Technology & Networks (ITN) equipment end-of-life environmental impacts.

The STF will issue 13 European Norms (ENs) as described below in support of the implementation of an efficient infrastructure of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the following areas:
- sites: access site, radio access, central office, core site, e.g. transmission site or data centre;
- long haul/backbone using optical fibre technologies;
- transit/metropolitan edge/back haul using optical fibre technologies;
- access, including transport and local distribution concentrating on optical fibre technologies and radio based stations;
- residential, including end-user connections.

Example of produced's drafts:

STF516-WD1_305_174-5-1_V002

STF516-SD2 303471

STF516-SD2_305200-2-3

STF516-SD3_305200-2-2

The objective of ETSI is to complete the required standards for M/462 by the end of 2017/Q1 2018.

A further STF will be established to address the remaining ENs listed as high priority in the Phase 2 report in relation to Mandate M/462.
