Here is another paper [1] from Noa's group on carbon aware networking. "This presents NetFridgeS, enabling dynamic frequency scaling on high-performance network switches, and builds upon carbon-aware routing to forecast network utilization and adjust pipeline frequency, which achieves an average energy saving of 77.74% at minimum throughput." It is a good idea to present this group in one of SUSTAIN RG meetings. Hesham [1]https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3768984
