Overview
This programme helps technology companies within the networked economy to benchmark their sustainability progress against peers, understand the implications of choices relating to network technology and architecture, and implement effective strategies for enhancing the sustainability of operations, including those of suppliers and customers. This knowledge will shape the next series of sustainability decisions that the industry will take and will help to identify opportunities within the sustainable networked economy.
This programme is focused on sustainable networks (encompassing infrastructure, telecoms, data centres, digital systems and services, and devices). It is underpinned by a detailed understanding of technologies and systems, and is focused on energy, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, embodied carbon and circularity.
Themes
- Increasing energy efficiency in data centres, fixed and mobile networks
- Comparing the performance of players and identifying market-leading approaches
- Strategies to maximise the enabling effect of telecoms networks on sustainability
- Supply-chain strategies for reducing environmental footprint
- Measuring and reducing embodied carbon in the telecoms industry
- Analysis of the factors that could either thwart or drive sustainability of the networked economy
What does the programme include?
This programme includes a set of deliverables including strategy reports, forecast reports, benchmarking datasets, environmental trackers, articles and case studies.
All deliverables are based on a unique set of insights and expert analysis.
