At the Green Software Foundation, we’re taking the globally adopted ISO Software Carbon Intensity (SCI) standard to the next frontier: SCI for AI.

As Chair of the GSF Standards Working Group, I’m excited to help steer this important initiative—working alongside the collective intelligence of our members to build open, interoperable standards that not only measure impact but inspire real action.

Our working group is developing a methodology to measure carbon emissions across the entire AI lifecycle—from the training of large models to inference and the growing use of Agentic AI. The goal: to equip developers, data scientists, and AI leaders with consistent, actionable metrics that enable smarter, greener AI decisions.

In the latest episode of GSF’s Environment Variables – Backstage, I join Chris Skipper to share insights on:

  • The foundations of the SCI ISO specification
  • The tools and technologies supporting carbon measurement
  • How we are evolving the SCI for AI specification to meet the growing environmental impact of AI

We are also looking at shaping global benchmarks for sustainable software through initiatives like:

  • The Real-Time Energy and Carbon Standard for cloud providers
  • The SCI Guide for practical implementation
  • The TOSS (Transforming Organisations for Sustainable Software) Framework
