Green information has become a common research subject in parallel with the day by day increase in energy resource constraints, environmental sensitivity and information and communication technology ICT usage. In this context, academic studies are conducted across the world and in Turkey. The aim of this study is, by acquiring information from the previous studies and determining gaps in these fields, both to determine the fields of study needed to be conducted in the future and to set up an infrastructure for the relevant next studies. For this purpose, international publications related to Green IT which were conducted by using especially Systematic Literature Review SLR were examined and 13 publications written in Turkish and published in Turkey before 2019 were analyzed through the use of SLR methodology. Turkish publications were compared with the worldwide publications, and suggestions were made intended for the fields requiring Turkish publications.
