Cloud computing is an important paradigm in Information Technology field. In Data center, where all physical resources are available, machine consumes power and emits heat which affects the environmental conditions. The Green Cloud computing solves the problem of global warming by providing eco-friendly environment. We studied that the heat emission increases with increase in energy consumption. The main aim of Green Cloud computing is to reduce the energy consumed by physical resources in data center and save energy and also increases the performance of the system. In this paper, we describe various techniques for minimizing the energy consumption.
