At OxygenIT, we’ve developed a proprietary methodology that blends deep technological expertise, advanced data science, and environmental insights. Our approach ensures your IT emissions reporting is accurate, auditable, and actionable—empowering your organization to make informed sustainability decisions.
We analyze the intricate design and functioning of cloud services to capture their unique characteristics. Each service, from AWS S3 to Azure Storage, requires detailed mapping of its components and behavior.
Our database is continually updated to include hardware components underpinning IaaS and PaaS services. This ensures our calculations are rooted in real-world infrastructure details.
Using usage metrics captured through CSP APIs, we calculate energy consumption at the component level. This granular approach reflects the actual energy impact of each resource.
We estimate emissions using regional Power Usage Effectiveness (PuE) and carbon factors. For embodied carbon, we align with Green Software Foundation standards, ensuring precision in lifecycle emissions reporting.
Each IaaS and PaaS service is analyzed for its unique design. For example, AWS S3 differs vastly from Azure Storage in topology and function, requiring tailored measurement techniques.
Our focus is on high-impact services, currently covering up to 80% of customers’ IaaS and PaaS emissions scope.
We continually expand coverage, uncovering insights that often challenge traditional monetary approaches.
We maintain dynamic regional PuE and carbon factor values, integrating them into our emissions calculations. This ongoing effort ensures that our estimates remain reliable and aligned with real-world conditions.
Our methodology is proprietary and we believe in full transparency for our customers. All data sources, values, and calculation steps are available for audit upon request. This ensures you can confidently use OxygenIT results for operational planning, and project forecasting.
