Abstract

An adaptive carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions reduction system operating on a client information handling system may comprise a processor, a network interface device, and a graphical user interface (GUI) to gather analytics for an executing software application hardware power consumption analytics, and a location for the client information handling system, determine a power CO2 emissions value estimating CO2 emitted during a measured consumption of power at the location based on the hardware power consumption analytics, determine that updated power consumption exceeds a maximum power draw threshold value determined based on user input for decreasing the power CO2 emissions value and location, and display a hardware reconfiguration recommendation for reconfiguring a hardware component currently configured for high performance to a power conservation setting.
