For that purpose, a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method is used in which 57 out of 150 studies meet the search criteria. From that number 18 studies focus on Green IT practice. Based on the analysis of the studies, 17 factors are identified as motivators for organisations to apply Green IT practice.
