Paper • 1910.09700 • Published • 59
Carbon emissions for this training run were estimated using the methodology described in Lacoste et al. (2019), Quantifying the Carbon Emissions of Machine Learning, based on the formulas below.
energy_kWh = (TDP_watts * num_gpus * gpu_hours * PUE) / 1000
= (350 * 7 * 377.8 * 1.53) / 1000
= 1416.183 kWh
co2_kg = (energy_kWh * region_carbon_intensity_gCO2_per_kWh) / 1000
= (1416.183 * 120) / 1000
= 169.942 kg CO2eq
