**Something big is happening**. The *Green Web Foundation* has launched the **Grid Aware Computing** project.

As we develop a better understanding of Green Software, the way we think about how our stack of tech interacts with the stack of energy infrastructure one layer down becomes more important.

In this talk **Chris Adams**, director of tech and policy at the *Green Web Foundation* will introduce the open source Grid Aware Computing project, that kicked off in November and will run through out 2025.

We’ll introduce the considerations beyond carbon when working with software, how to take your first steps in the world of grid aware, and play with the code, and wrap with space for QnA.

The special thing about this project is that web pages change their functionality depending on the grid carbon intensity. In contrast to shifting the load at times when there is a lot of renewable energy in the grid (time-shifting).

This time the event is in English.

The meetup will take place in presence again. If external participants would like to attend remotely, please select the appropriate RSVP so that the catering can be adapted.

**Agenda**
18:00 Admission & Networking
18:30 Talk and presentation with a short break in between

The event is supported by **karlsruhe.digital**.
Green Software Development Karlsruhe is an independent part of the global **Green Software Foundation** community.
The **CyberForum**, **Fairantwortung** and **ImpactHub** **Karlsruhe** ensure that the event is spread throughout the community.
