  23. Greening Commons Accelerators .. Blockers .. Challenges & Lessons IGF2009 - R&E Networks Go Green Nezar Sami

  24. Accelerators • Government organizations have to take a leadership position early, with other sectors following closely behind. • The increase cost of the power in all forms (oil , electricity , etc … ) . • The increase demand for cost efficient technologies . • The top management commitment towards the green clean technology . • The openness and the world exposure the institution have that make it a ready environment the State of the art practices and technologies . • The need for differentiation and attracting the attention of the global research universities and institutes IGF2009 - R&E Networks Go Green Nezar Sami

  25. Blockers • The lack of Standards for the academic green services and technologies • The misconception that being green is being more expensive • The lake of public awareness of the benefits of being clean green • The local market of suppliers in Egypt may not be ready for the demand of Green Technologies IGF2009 - R&E Networks Go Green Nezar Sami

  26. Challenges.. • Regulatory Challenges • Investment Challenge • Security, Reliability, and Innovation Challenges • Marketplace Challenges Source: S. Masoud Amin; MOT-Nile University 2008 IGF2009 - R&E Networks Go Green Nezar Sami

  27. Key Issues .. Relevance to Future Action Sustainability Capacity Building & Planning Reliability & Integrity Prosperity Unified Infrastructure Competitiveness Resource & Performance Management Total Cost of Ownership Global Awareness IGF2009 - R&E Networks Go Green Nezar Sami
