carbon emissions

It visualizes the carbon emission data generated when using services in the Samsung Cloud Platform Console, allowing you to track emission trends. You can also estimate the expected carbon emissions that could have been reduced by using Samsung Cloud Platform instead of an on‑premise data center, and review the emissions predicted based on current usage.

information
Carbon emission data is automatically linked when a new service is created within the Samsung Cloud Platform.

Check carbon emissions

You can view the carbon emissions by service in the Samsung Cloud Platform Console.

To check the carbon emissions per service, follow these steps.

  1. All Services > Financial Management > Cost Management Click the menu. 1. Navigate to the Service Home page of Cost Management.
  2. On the Service Home page, click the Carbon Emissions menu. 2. Go to the Carbon Emissions page.
  3. In the period setting area at the top right, set the period for viewing carbon emissions. 3. The carbon emissions for the selected period are displayed.

Reference
  • Data is not displayed on the 1st of each month. * (based on Asia/Seoul, GMT +09:00)
  • The month‑end estimate is a projection based on the current emissions.
information
  • Carbon emissions are rounded after summing the fractional amounts for each service group, so the total may differ.
  • Indirect Service group: Includes emissions generated from all usage services except Compute and Storage services.
