Zusammenfassung:Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, responsive to a request for an end-to-end service, obtaining power-related data for each of a plurality of network elements, identifying a set of candidate service routes that is each associated with a respective subset of the plurality of network elements, for each of the candidate service routes, calculating at least one power metric based on the power-related data of each network element in the respective subset associated with that candidate service route, resulting in a plurality of power metrics, and presenting or utilizing the plurality of power metrics to facilitate selection of a desirable service route from the set of candidate service routes for the end to end service. Other embodiments are disclosed.
