Visibility
Understand where energy is consumed at runtime.
Open source for a Greener Linux runtime
Bringing sustainability to the Linux ecosystem
What is Green Kernel?
Measure power where work actually happens: by process and cgroup. Green Kernel gives companies practical tooling to monitor, optimize, and reduce compute waste in production environments.
Why?
Security
Access only what is your container is using.
Sustainability
Reduce compute waste and support lower-carbon infrastructure decisions.
Feature Demo
See procpower in action
See how quickly you can inspect secure per-process and per-cgroup power usage with procpower.
Project 01
procpower
Easily inspect energy usage per process or cgroup, securely. Procpower helps platform and infrastructure teams pinpoint expensive workloads without broad system access.
- Per-process and per-cgroup visibility
- Security-aware collection model
- Quick insights for tuning and right-sizing
Install
Distribution
sudo apt install procpowerProject 02
powerletrics
Aggregate and track Linux power telemetry over time to make sustainability work measurable, repeatable, and actionable across systems.
- Telemetry-first architecture
- Built for trend analysis and reporting
- Supports optimization feedback loops
Install
pip install powerletricsProject 03
request-energy-ebpf
Request-level energy attribution with eBPF
Attach to a target cgroup, observe HTTP request lifecycles, and inject
an X-Energy- response header with per-request energy data.
- Request energy directly in the HTTP response header
- Compact eBPF for low-level attribution
- Request timing from socket activity inside the kernel
Install
git clone https://github.com/green-coding-solutions/request-energy-ebpf.git
cd request-energy-ebpf
make installSub Projects
