The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has been active in a number of areas touching on Green ICT, including the IEEE 1680 standard used by EPEAT. Vertatique regularly cites IEEE publication Spectrum.

The IEEE Technical Committee on Scalable Computing launched in January 2010 its "Technical Area of Green Computing".
