At the recent IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference (IEEE NSS/MIC 2016) held in Strasbourg (Oct. 29 to Nov. 5), a special session was dedicated to the particle accelerators energy consumption issues. The “Green Particle Physics” session included talks related to ILC, ESS and from companies such as Mitsubishi Heavy Industry, Kyocera, and Fujikura. The slides of the Green-ILC group are available from the Green-ILC website or here and here

The round table showed a close proximity between the ESS and Green-ILC projects on energy consumption issues.
