Sustainability Criteria for Cloud Resources

There are sustainability certifications for hardware. But how are cloud services evaluated?

TCO Development is the Swedish organization behind TCO Certified, the global sustainability certification for IT products.

We have developed a criteria catalogue for the sustainable provision of digital resources—computing power, storage capacity, and network transmission from cloud environments.

The catalogue builds on existing standards such as EN 50600, the Blue Angel, and the French Environment Agency ADEME's Product Category Rules. Special focus was placed on operational operation: virtualization, orchestration, and hardware procurement.

Results:

  • Criteria catalogue for cloud resources

  • Benchmarking of existing labels

  • Stakeholder workshops with buyers and cloud providers

  • Documentation for buyers and providers

  • Project website
