Abstract
The widespread use of the software is responsible for the increasing energy consumption of the world’s IT infrastructure. Many techniques, methods, and practices can reduce software’s energy consumption, but software producers do not use them. This paper aims to answer the question of why software developers do not care about energy consumption.In order to answer this question, we distinguished five research objectives and drew up a questionnaire consisting of 13 questions. We then conducted telephone interviews with 22 people from the software industry.We showed that developers need a higher awareness of the problem and more knowledge of proven ways to manage software energy efficiency. The author suggests introducing energy efficiency standards and green energy certificates for applications. Courses in energy-efficient software development at universities help prepare staff for the sustainable software development of the future.
