Abstract-Reducing the energy consumed by datacenters becomes of major importance due to the current climate changes and the increasing success of cloud computing. Studies to optimize the energy consumption of cloud systems exist but do not take into account the end-user. The goal of this paper is to understand and quantify the link between the PaaS parameters a user can configure and the application energy consumption. In this work we summarize the parameters available at the PaaS layer and measure their influence on the energy consumed by RUBiS, a web application benchmark. Different database technologies and programming languages are compared as well as their software versions. Experimentation results show that by themselves the existing PaaS parameters can variate the application energy consumption. Although it shows that different programming languages do not consume the same, we discovered that a wider energy difference exists between database technologies which means higher energy savings is possible when the less consuming technology is used. Thus, users could optimize the energy impact of their applications by carefully configuring on-hand PaaS parameters.

“…Liobikiene et al [ 68 ] suggested that awakening of environmental concerns can encourage the public to conserve energy, which, in turn, can lead to green consumer behaviors. After comparing a large number of related studies, Tsuda et al [ 69 ] reported an interactive relationship between environmental concerns and engagement in energy-conservation behaviors. Similarly, Pothitou et al [ 70 ] identified a significant positive correlation between environmental concern and engagement in pro-environmental behaviors.…”

Global climate change presents a profound threat to the survival and continued development of humanity. The present study featured a survey of 3005 adolescents in China on 13 December 2021, aiming to determine whether climate change beliefs (including recognition of the existence of climate change, cognition of the causes of climate change, and climate change risk perception) influence their engagement in energy-conservation behaviors. Concurrently, the psychological mechanism underlying the influence of environmental concerns on the above relationship was also tested. The results showed that, among youths, climate change belief positively predicts engagement in energy-conservation behaviors. Specifically, awareness of the existence of climate change, knowledge of the causes of climate change, and climate change risk perception all positively predict engagement in energy-conservation behaviors. Further, environmental concerns were found to play a mediating role in the relationship between climate change beliefs and energy-conservation actions. From a practical perspective, the government and education departments should guide young people to develop accurate perceptions of climate change, and should raise their awareness of energy conservation and social responsibility, which should lead to their development of energy-conservation habits.

“…Smart meter and HEMS data can also be used to induce behavioral changes in energy consumption [30], for instance through gamification techniques [14] or broadcast of information (e.g., price signal) [11]. In [23], a detailed analysis of the requirements for different applications of smart meter data (e.g., balancing, demand response, network planning) is conducted considering the European legislation about personal data protection.…”

Smart grids technologies are enablers of new business models for domestic consumers with local flexibility (generation, loads, storage) and where access to data is a key requirement in the value stream. However, legislation on personal data privacy and protection imposes the need to develop local models for flexibility modeling and forecasting and exchange models instead of personal data. This paper describes the functional architecture of an home energy management system (HEMS) and its optimization functions. A set of data-driven models, embedded in the HEMS, are discussed for improving renewable energy forecasting skill and modeling multi-period flexibility of distributed energy resources.
