Introduction The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. This document defines a YANG data model for Power and Energy Monitoring and control of devices within or connected to communication networks, for the use cases document in [I-D.ietf-green-use-cases-01]. The data model includes both the monitoring and control of Energy Objects for networked devices. Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 2] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 This YANG data model is based on the "GREEN framework" [I-D.ietf-green-framework], following the "GREEN terminology" [I-D.ietf-green-terminology]. Power and Energy Monitoring and Control can be applied to devices in communication networks. All identifiable devices with measurable or representable Power and Energy characteristics fall within the scope of this specification. Target devices include (but are not limited to) routers, switches, Power over Ethernet (PoE) endpoints, smart PDU, storage and compute servers, etc. Where applicable, device monitoring extends to the components of the device as well as software and service running on the device. As a result, the metrics to be monitored include Device Level Energy Efficiency (DLEE), Component Level Energy Efficiency (CLEE) and potential Service Level Energy Efficiency (SLEE) at the orchestrator- level, etc. For example, a router can contain components such as Line Processing Unit (LPU), Switch Fabric Unit (SFU), Main Processing Unit (MPU). 1.1. Terminology This document makes use of the terms defined in [I-D.ietf-green-terminology]: - Power - Energy - Energy Object - Energy Management - Energy Monitoring - Energy Control - Energy Efficiency/Energy Efficiency Ratio - Device Level Energy Efficiency (DLEE) - Component Level Energy Efficiency (CLEE) - Service Level Energy Efficiency (SLEE) The terms reused from [I-D.ietf-green-terminology] and [I-D.ietf-green-framework] are capitalized in this specification. Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 3] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 This document uses the terms Power and Energy in accordance with [I-D.ietf-green-terminology]. Power refers to the instantaneous rate at which a device consumes or produces electrical energy (typically expressed in Watts). Energy, by contrast, represents the cumulative amount of work performed over time (typically expressed in Joules or Watt-hours). Both concepts are required within this YANG module. Power enables real-time monitoring, control, and optimization of device operation, while Energy provides a time-integrated view necessary for accounting, reporting, and even for sustainability analysis. This specification includes both Power and Energy attributes. The terminology for describing YANG modules is defined in [RFC7950]. The meanings of the symbols in the YANG tree diagrams are defined in [RFC8340]. 2. The GREEN Framework The "GREEN framework" described in [I-D.ietf-green-framework] covers monitoring and controlling devices and components where monitoring includes measuring Power, Energy, demand and attributes of Power. For the whole picture of the monitoring interfaces and the relevant requirements, please refer to "GREEN reference model" in section 4 in [I-D.ietf-green-framework]. 3. Power and Energy Data Model The Power and Energy Data Model reports the Power and Energy consumption of each Energy Object as well as the units, sign, measurement accuracy, etc. A containment tree view of the Power and Energy Monitoring is presented. The model uses the admin and oper leaves within the power-state container to represent the intended (administrative) and operational (actual) power states respectively. The two leaves together form the complete power state management interface. The operational tree ('container energy-objects') will typically contain a significantly larger number of instances than the configuration tree ('container energy-control'). The configuration tree, which is limited to explicitly provisioned entries, provides a compact self- contained view of the intent. For this reason, although an NMDA (Network Management Datastore Architecture) design with a single "state" leaf (per [RFC8342]) was considered, it is not adopted in this document. Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 4] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 Entries in /energy-control/energy-objects/energy-object SHOULD reference the /energy-objects/energy-object/id using a leafref with require-instance false. This allows an administrator or controller to correlate a configured power state intent with the Energy Object being monitored. The require-instance false statement allows the configuration to remain after an energy-object has disappeared from the system, or before it has been introduced. If the referred Energy Object does not currently exist, the configuration item for it has no effect. The relationship list models the relationship between an Energy Object and its peer Energy Objects, using the energy-relationship- type identities: powered-by and powering (Power Source Relationship), metered-by and metering (Metering Relationship), aggregated-by and aggregating (Aggregation Relationship), and enabled-by and enabling (Functional Enablement Relationship). Each pair of identities expresses the same relationship from the perspective of each participant (e.g., if Energy Object A is powered- by Energy Object B, then Energy Object B is powering Energy Object A). These relationship categories, including their use for power/ metering topology discovery and for preventing double-counting of Energy values, are defined in [I-D.ietf-green-framework]. For each relationship type, one or more peer Energy Objects can be identified via the id leaf within the peer list, a string value that is typically the peer's UUID when known, or another locally unique identifier, together with human-readable details captured in the details leaf, otherwise. Regarding relationships among Energy Objects, this document does not provide a mechanism to configure relationships on the device (i.e., there is no relationship list under /energy-control); the relationship list under /energy-objects/energy-entry is read-only operational data (config false). For relationships between components within the same device (e.g., between a Line Processing Unit (LPU) and a Switch Fabric Unit (SFU)), the device can typically determine and populate this data directly, without requiring external configuration. Relationships between Energy Objects located on different devices are generally established and maintained at the controller or Energy Management System (EnMS) level, which has visibility into the broader network topology, as discussed in [I-D.ietf-green-framework]. A device may still report a known inter-device relationship (e.g., using the peer's network-level UUID) when it has been made aware of it, but this module does not provide a mechanism to configure such relationships on the device itself.

Relationship to the Hardware YANG Data Model To enable stable component identification across systems with the 'uuid' YANG leaf from the ietf-hardware YANG Data Model for Hardware Management [RFC8348], the ietf-hardware YANG module [RFC8348] is required in connection with the 'source-component-id'. In the Power and Energy YANG Module defined in this specification, the leaf 'source-component-id' refers to a hardware component defined in the ietf-hardware module [RFC8348]. The ietf-hardware module provides three identifiers for hardware components: 'name', 'physical-index', and 'uuid'. The 'name' leaf is the list key and uniquely identifies a component within a single device, but carries no uniqueness guarantee across different devices or management systems. The 'physical-index' leaf optionally matches Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 6] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 entPhysicalIndex in the Entity MIB [RFC6933] when the entity-mib feature is supported. The 'uuid' leaf is a Universally Unique Identifier [RFC9562] that is globally unique and therefore suitable for stable identification of a component across management systems. The GREEN YANG module imports the ietf-hardware module [RFC8348] and uses the 'uuid' leaf as the value of 'source-component-id', enabling unambiguous component identification across management systems independent of device-local naming conventions. The mapping between energy-object entries in this YANG Module and the hardware-components in ietf-hardware YANG module [RFC8348] is designed to be 1:1, architecturally aligning each energy-entry with exactly one physical hardware component via source-component-id. There are also cases where the controllers also generate their own set of UUIDs for the hardware (components). In such a case, it might be necessary to document the mappings between the UUIDs generated on the hardware side and the UUIDs on the controller side. Basically, the devices (such as routers) generate the UUID and the controller can query it. The ietf-hardware YANG module [RFC8348] allows discovering all the device components, including the containment tree, and the parent/ child relationship, which is important for energy/power aggregation (see the contains-child relationship in RFC 8348). 5. Relationship to the EMAN Work The EMAN IETF Working Group (https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/eman/ about/) is a concluded Working Group that produced a couple of RFCs in the domain of Power and Energy. The Working Group produced MIB modules for monitoring and control for power and energy, for the context information, for battery monitoring, and an extension to the ENTITY-MIB to add the UUID definition [RFC6933]. For various reasons, those MIB modules were not implemented by vendors. The Power and Energy data model defined in this specification uses the Monitoring and Control MIB for Power and Energy [RFC7460] as a starting point to discuss the solution to the different use cases in [I-D.ietf-green-use-cases-01]. Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 7] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 However, it has not been the goal to simply map the MIB module to a YANG module. The changes compared to the EMAN MIB modules are mainly due to the alignment with the up-to-date requirements of the network carriers on Energy Efficiency. Compared to the MIB modules, some definitions and types are optimized, some new Energy Objects are added and some legacy Energy Objects are removed accordingly. 6.

This identity serves as the root for a hierarchy of accuracy types, allowing for extensibility while maintaining alignment with current and future industry standards. The hierarchy, as defined in this YANG module, is as follows. Other modules may extend this hierarchy with additional accuracy base- and sub-types as needed. data-source-accuracy ├── accuracy-like-parent ├── accuracy-unknown │ └── accuracy-unavailable ├── accuracy-estimated │ ├── accuracy-static │ ├── accuracy-historic │ └── accuracy-learned └── accuracy-measured ├── accuracy-measured-bronze │ ├── accuracy-measured-bronze-1 │ ├── accuracy-measured-bronze-10 │ ├── accuracy-measured-bronze-100 Benoit, et al.

Since percent-wise accuracy works poorly for very small values, standards such as IEC 62053, IEC 61850-7-4 and IEEE 1451 define accuracy classes based on a combination of percent-wise accuracy and absolute accuracy thresholds. E.g. +/-1 % of reading + +/-0.05 absolute units. Similarly, for each percent-wise accuracy class, this module defines a few absolute tolerance classes, indicated by suffixes to the accuracy identity names. The suffixes indicate absolute accuracy thresholds: no suffix: +/-0.5 absolute units -1: +/-1 absolute unit -10: +/-10 absolute units -100: +/-100 absolute units -1000: +/-1000 absolute units Thus, for example, accuracy-measured-gold-10 indicates a power data measurement with an accuracy of either +/-5% or +/-10 absolute units, whichever is larger. For example, a power sensor reading might report a value of 16250 milliwatts, under accuracy-measured-gold-10. This indicates that the actual power value is between 15437.5 and 17062.5 milliwatts, since 5% of 16250 milliwatts is 812.5 milliwatts, which is greater than the absolute threshold of 10 milliwatts. At another time, the same sensor might report a value of 150 milliwatts, under accuracy-measured-gold-10. This Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 10] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 indicates that the actual power value is between 140 and 160 milliwatts, since 5% of 150 milliwatts is only 7.5 millwatts, which is less than the absolute threshold of 10 milliwatts."; } identity accuracy-unknown { base data-source-accuracy; description "The accuracy of the power data is unknown."; } identity accuracy-unavailable { base accuracy-unknown; description "A power data is not available for some reason, such as a sensor failure or a component being powered off."; } identity accuracy-like-parent { base data-source-accuracy; description "The accuracy of the power/energy data is the same as this energy object's parent object.

Operational Considerations Heterogeneous sensor capabilities across components complicate power and energy aggregation. Operators must use the data-source-accuracy identities (e.g., accuracy-measured-bronze vs. accuracy-estimated) to weight data reliability carefully before aggregating Power (instantaneous-power) and Energy (total-energy-consumed and/or total- energy-delivered) values to avoid skewing Device Level Energy Efficiency (DLEE) metrics. Operators might not always be interested in getting the individual component accuracy. What counts is the device level or domain level, identity accuracy-like-parent is introduced to meet their demands. From an implementation point of view, to facilitate data collection and aggregation on runtime and avoid post-aggregation data confidence interval issues, operators and implementers should use as much as possible this accuracy-like-parent identity. YANG Push support eliminates device-side bucket storage by streaming energy telemetry directly to controller-side via subscriptions. Operators must verify the 'yang-push' bundle is enabled and validate push-max-operational limits accommodate all component subscriptions, preventing notification flooding while avoiding memory overhead on the device. Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 25] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 7.1. Hardware Component Identification The GREEN YANG module relies on the ietf-hardware module [RFC8348] for hardware component identification. Among the three identifiers that ietf-hardware provides for each component: 'name', 'physical- index', and 'uuid', only uuid is globally unique. The 'name' leaf, while serving as the list key within a device, is meaningful only in the context of that specific device. The 'physical-index' leaf, where present, provides a mapping to the legacy Entity MIB [RFC6933], but its availability depends on whether the entity-mib feature is supported. For these reasons, the 'source-component-id' leaf in this module is bound to the 'uuid' leaf of the corresponding ietf-hardware component, as defined in [RFC9562]. This choice ensures that Energy Objects can be unambiguously referenced and correlated across devices, management systems, and administrative domains without relying on device-local naming conventions. 7.2. Measurement Accuracy and Data Source Classification Power and energy metrics may originate from a wide range of sources and estimation methods, each with different levels of reliability. These include direct sensor measurements, manufacturer-provided specifications, historical observations, and predictive models. Without explicit characterization of data quality, comparisons and aggregations may be misleading. The GREEN YANG data model therefore requires all power and energy values to be associated with an accuracy classification. The model defines the following primary accuracy categories using YANG identities: * Unknown Accuracy: Data accuracy cannot be determined, or measurements are unavailable due to sensor failures, powered-off components, or other operational constraints. * Estimated Data: Values derived through indirect methods: - Static estimates: From manufacturer datasheets, nameplate ratings (critical for UC 1: Incremental Deployment with legacy devices) o Identity: accuracy-static - Historic estimates: Based on prior measurements of this specific system under similar conditions Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 26] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 o Identity: accuracy-historic - Learned estimates: Generated by machine learning models predicting consumption from workload patterns (UC 15: AI Training) o Identity: accuracy-learned * Measured Data: Direct, real-time sensor measurements with quantified precision: * Bronze: +/-30% accuracy for typical values. * Silver: +/-10% accuracy for typical values. * Gold: +/-5% accuracy for typical values. * Red: +/-2% accuracy for typical values. * Ones: All non-zero digits are significant/valid. Percentage-based accuracy fails for small values. For example, +/-5% of 100 mW is only 5 mW, which may be smaller than sensor noise. Industry standards (IEC 62053, IEC 61850-7-4) address this by specifying: Accuracy = MAX(percentage_error, absolute_threshold) The absolute threshold suffixes (-1, -10, -100, -1000) refer to milliwatts. -10 means +/-10 milliwatts. Example - A sensor with accuracy-measured-gold-10 reports: * 16.25W -> actual value between 16.2375W and 16.2625W (5% = 0.8125W > 0.010W threshold) * 0.15W -> actual value between 0.140W and 0.160W (5% = 0.0075W < 0.010W threshold, so +/-10mW applies) Explicit accuracy reporting enables: * Weighted aggregation: High-precision measurements carry appropriate weight when calculating network-wide energy consumption * Upgrade prioritization: Identify devices with low-accuracy reporting for sensor upgrades or replacement * Compliance validation: Automated verification against regulatory thresholds requiring specific measurement precision Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 27] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 * Double-accounting prevention: Understand when PDU-level measurements (+/-2%) should override device estimates (+/-30%) to avoid counting the same energy twice (UC 13) * Cross-domain correlation: Map accuracy expectations when integrating with external systems like 3GPP energy KPIs (UC 6) The accuracy hierarchy uses YANG identities for extensibility, allowing vendors to define manufacturer-specific accuracy classes while maintaining interoperability through standardized base types. 7.3. Industry-Standard Certifications Energy efficiency certifications issued by recognized testing organizations provide standardized benchmarks for the expected performance of equipment and components. These certifications are typically based on controlled laboratory measurements and formal evaluation procedures. The GREEN YANG data model supports reporting of such certifications in order to complement operational measurement data. Common Certifications: * 80 PLUS (Power Supply Units): Bronze/Silver/Gold/Platinum/Titanium tiers based on efficiency at 20%/50%/100% load * Energy Star: Government-backed program certifying energy-efficient products * EPEAT: Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool ratings (Bronze/Silver/Gold) * EU Energy Label: European efficiency ratings * CN Energy Label: China efficiency ratings * CQC: China Quality Certification for energy efficiency Additional certification schemes may be supported through extensible identities. Certification data and measurement accuracy serve complementary functions within the model. Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 28] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 Certification information describes the verified design-time efficiency characteristics of a device or component, as established through independent testing. Measurement accuracy describes the precision and reliability of reported operational data obtained from sensors or estimation mechanisms. Key differences include: * Certification is typically applied at manufacturing time and remains stable throughout the product lifecycle. * Measurement accuracy may vary over time due to calibration, environmental conditions, or sensor degradation. * Certification is generally associated with discrete components, such as power supply units. * Measurement accuracy applies to individual metrics at component, subsystem, or system level. Both types of information may be reported simultaneously for the same Energy Object. Example: A power supply might have: * Certification: c80-PLUS-Platinum (>=92% efficient at 50% load, independently verified) * Measurement Accuracy: accuracy-measured-silver (+/-10% sensor precision on real-time power readings) The certification tells operators the Energy Object, for example, a PSU, is designed to be efficient; the measurement accuracy tells them how precisely they can monitor its actual performance. 8. Security Considerations This section is modeled after the template described in Section 3.7.1 of [rfc8407bis]. The Power and Energy YANG module defines a data model that is designed to be accessed via YANG-based management protocols, such as NETCONF [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040]. These YANG-based management protocols (1) have to use a secure transport layer (e.g., SSH [RFC4252], TLS [RFC8446], and QUIC [RFC9000]) and (2) have to use mutual authentication. Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 29] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content. There is one writable data node defined in this YANG module that may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) to this data node without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations: * /energy-control/energy-entry/power-state/admin: Unauthorized write access to this leaf allows an attacker to change the administratively requested power state of an Energy Object. Depending on the target device or component, this could be used to power down critical network infrastructure (resulting in denial of service), force a component into a state that damages hardware, or mask an ongoing attack by cycling power states to disrupt monitoring. Access to this data node SHOULD be limited to authorized administrators via NACM. Some of the readable data nodes in this YANG module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or notification) to these data nodes. Specifically, the following subtrees and data nodes have particular sensitivities: * /energy-objects/energy-entry/power and /energy-objects/energy- entry/energy: These subtrees expose real-time and cumulative power and energy consumption for individual hardware components. Fine- grained, time-correlated power/energy telemetry can reveal operational patterns, such as workload levels, traffic volume, or usage schedules, of a device or of the network behind it. In some environments, this information could be leveraged as a side channel to infer sensitive operational or business information (e.g., data center utilization, capacity, or customer activity patterns). * /energy-objects/energy-entry/relationship: This list exposes relationships (e.g., powered-by, powering, metered-by) and UUIDs between Energy Objects, which can reveal the physical and logical power topology of a site. Disclosure of this information could assist an attacker in identifying high-value targets (e.g., shared power infrastructure whose disruption has a broad impact) or in correlating Energy Objects across administrative domains.

Benoit, et al. Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 31] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 9.2. Power and Energy Certification Types Registry IANA is requested to create a new registry named "Power and Energy Certification Types" within the "Power and Energy" registry group. This document defines the initial version of the IANA-maintained certification-type identity in the iana-power-and-energy YANG module. The registry assigns string identity names for power and energy efficiency certification types, for use as identityref values in "ietf-power-and-energy" YANG module. The registered value is the unqualified identity name (e.g., energy-star, c80-plus, etc). No numeric code points are assigned by this registry.

Expires 13 March 2027 [Page 32] Internet-Draft GREEN-PEM-YANG September 2026 Note to IANA: RFC XXX must be replaced by the newly assigned RFC number. New entries to "Power and Energy Certification Types" registry require Expert Review [RFC8126]. The Designated Expert(s) should verify that: * The certification is issued by a recognized and independent standards body, testing laboratory, regulatory authority, or equivalent organization. * The certification has a stable, publicly accessible reference. * The proposed identity name SHOULD be a short mnemonic derived from the official certification name. When a new certification type is added to the registry, a new identity statement MUST be added to the iana-power-and-energy YANG module. The following substatements to the identity statement MUST be defined: * base: MUST contain the value certification-type. * status: Include only if a registration has been deprecated (use the value deprecated) or obsoleted (use the value obsolete). * description: MUST include the full name of the certification program and a brief description of its energy efficiency scope. Lines MUST NOT exceed 72 characters. * reference: MUST include a stable URI to the certification program's official documentation or registry. Unassigned or reserved values MUST NOT be present in the module. When the "Power and Energy Certification Types" registry is updated with a new entry, a corresponding new identity statement MUST be added to the iana-power-and-energy YANG module, and a new revision statement MUST be added in front of the existing revision statements. IANA is requested to add the following note to the "Power and Energy Certification Types" registry: Certification types MUST NOT be directly added to the iana-power-and- energy YANG module. They MUST instead be added to the "Power and Energy Certification Types" registry. When this registry is updated, the iana-power-and-energy YANG module MUST be updated as defined in RFC XXX.
