Abstract :	[en] Energy efficiency and High computing power are basic design considerations across modern-day computing solutions due to different concerns such as system performance, operational cost, and environmental issues. Opportunistic grid infrastructures offer computational power at low cost focused on harvesting idle computing cycles of existing commodity computing resources. Other than allowing to customize the end user offer, virtualization is considered as one key tech- niques to reduce energy consumption in large-scale systems and contributes to the scalability of the system. This paper presents an energy efficient approach for opportunistic grids based on virtualization. The experimental results show that virtualization significantly improves the energy efficiency of opportunistic grids compared with dedicated computing sys- tems without disturbing the end-user.
