The IT energy crisis is upon us. After years of seemingly infinite IT resources, there is a pressing need for the European ICT to take a leading role in energy efficiency to become more sustainable, reduce climate impact and achieve competitive advantages, such as costs reduction.

How can we become more sustainable in ICT?

Endless options are available to those who want to join the energy efficiency quest. One possibility is to increase the efficiency of energy consumption of our ICT devices boosting the lifetime of electronic devices’ batteries. Curiously, also simple behavioural changes can lead to an overall reduction of ICT’s environmental impact. But if you really want be aware of your ICT energy consumption, that’s where ICTFOOTPRINT.eu can help.

First of all, in order to improve ICT energy efficiency, it is important to calculate and measure the amount of energy that your ICT products and services consume today.

ICTFOOTPRINT.eu organises a webinar on 23 February, 15:00 CET to help you make your ICT energy efficient with new calculation tools & ICT insights on energy savings from Industry experts on sustainable energy.
