The Value and Effect of ICT for a Green Future

Telecom industry technologies and applications have great potentials for emission reduction. It is forecast that ICT could deliver approximately 7.8 Gt CO2 of emissions savings in 2020. And it is expected that areas of cloud computing, smart logistics, smart working and intelligent applications have more energy saving effects than those non-materialized ICT applications.

Obviously, ICT provides a more intelligent method for CO2 emissions reduction. While beyond this intuitive knowledge, more problems must be handled, such as the ICT sector’s own emissions:, the rise in demand for ICT applications rise, will therefore result in more CO2 emissions. Nevertheless, there is no doubt that ICT is an important ingredient for a low carbon future.
If we can push forward ICT applications in the field of emissions reduction in the right way, it will help society to head for a healthy and smarter future. Otherwise, we will be at risk of a high CO2 emissions world.
