What is ICTFOOTPRINT.eu marketplace?
The ICTFOOTPRINT.eu marketplace is an online meeting point which will bring together the demand-side (SMEs willing to adopt low-carbon footprint solutions) and the supply-side (low-carbon footprint solution Providers). The marketplace will establish a level playing field for both and contribute to speeding up the uptake of energy efficient ICT solutions.
How is my carbon footprint calculated?
The ICTFOOTPRINT.eu self-assessment tool will calculate your carbon footprint based on the information you have provided us and the footprint model parameters from selected methodologies and metrics.
What information I should provide in order to assess my carbon footprint?
There will be several “self-assessment” services. To a “basic assessment” of your carbon footprint through the ICTFOOTPRINT.eu self-assessment tool, you should provide with an organisation profile.
