This report presents a semantic information model for large-scale computing infrastructures with energy awareness. The Energy Description Language (EDL) ontology reuses Infrastructure and Network Description Language (INDL), developed by our group, to describe the resources and network infrastructure that connects these resources. The EDL ontology itself focuses on conceptu- alizations and their representative terms for knowledge representation in the domain of energy monitoring. The concepts in EDL can support a varying range of power management scenarios such as reducing cost and lowering green house gas emission. Besides, EDL is exible and low-cost for developing applications in large-scale infrastructure environment because of loose-coupling structure. Finally, the EDL ontology is OWL-based model, which facilitates ontology reuse and share by other developers. EDL has been adopted in our Energy Knowledge Base system.
