Claim 0:
1. A system, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:
determining respective ranges of coefficients that act, according to a defined function, to reduce a combined carbon footprint climate impact score of respective types of devices having respective climate footprint change impact scores, comprising applying a first genetic-based optimization process, to a first initial population of coefficients, to obtain the respective ranges of coefficients, in which the respective ranges of coefficients satisfy respective device type power constraints and respective device type performance constraints;
determining, within the respective ranges of coefficients, respective per-device type coefficients for respective per-device climate impact scores, comprising, for the respective ranges of coefficients, applying a second genetic-based optimization process to obtain the respective per-device type coefficients that reduce respective device type power consumption values, in which the respective per-device type coefficients satisfy the respective device type power constraints and the respective device type performance constraints; and
applying respective upper power wattage limits to limit power supplied to the respective types of devices based on the respective device type power consumption values, to reduce an overall power consumption of the respective types of devices, wherein the applying the respective upper power wattage limits to limit the power supplied to the respective types of devices comprises executing optimization logic that modifies respective power consumption of at least one device of the respective types of devices.
