232 Sustainable IT tools indexed in the toolbox
Welcome to the INR tool box that presents a list of Sustainable IT tools. Our goal for 2022 is to optimize this list: to improve the methodology for selecting tools and to cover all Sustainable IT themes.
If you have any suggestions for Sustainable IT tools or would like to get involved with us to help us optimize the toolbox, please write to us: outils-nr [@] institutnr.org

Contrastradio
Used to test the contrast ratio between two colors. The tool provides guidance on the level of compliance that can potentially be achieved with this color scheme. To achieve AA accessibility level: minimum contrast ratio of 4.5: 1. For AAA level: minimum contrast ratio of 7: 1.
Experiment-impact-tracker
Method to track energy consumption, carbon emissions, and calculate your system usage. Currently, on Linux systems with Intel chips (which support RAPL or powergadget interfaces) and NVIDIA GPUs, we record: CPU and GPU power consumption, hardware information, python package versions, information on estimated carbon emissions, etc.
Energy usage
Python package that provides a function to estimate the energy consumption and associated carbon emissions of another function. Emissions are calculated based on the user's location via the GeoJS API and energy mix data from that location (sources: US EIA and eGRID for the year 2016).
