Ericsson of Sweden and WWF will promote solutions that reduce emissions of CO2
The company Ericsson and the Swedish branch of World Wildlife Fund (WWF) announced that they will make joint efforts to promote the use of the various branches of intelligent communication solutions that will reduce global emissions of hydrocarbons. To this end, partners will work towards promoting environmental solutions and telecommunication concept «Environmental companies» among the information and communication technology (ICT) sector, who seek the most effective ways to achieve their goals.
The cooperation covers three key areas: the methodology for calculating CO2 emissions after the transition to environmentally sound technologies; the addition of programs for the climate in the major cities of telecommunication solutions with a low consumption of hydrocarbons, paving the way for the creation of alliances that will contribute to the economy with a low consumption of hydrocarbons.
Ericsson Sweden and WWF believe that the information and communications sector, which accounts for approximately 2% of global emissions of CO2, has great potential: with the help of ICT technologies remaining 98% attributable to the share of other sectors and society can be reduced by 15%. The cooperation aims to promote other sectors such as transport, construction and energy, more efficient use of information and communication infrastructure and thus reduce the total emissions of CO2.
It is estimated Ericsson and WWF Sweden, judicious use of broadband access will reduce CO2 emissions in the 10-100 times. For example, by switching to the service connection in the course of which emit 1 kg of hydrocarbons, can reduce emissions by 10-100 kg. Technologies of fixed and mobile broadband providers have a central role in the improvement of basic services and reducing emissions - natural products are replaced by services, and an opportunity to make more efficient use of resources - and accelerate the transition from physical to virtual infrastructure and services.
Ericsson and WWF Sweden will examine how to calculate how much CO2 emissions reduced through the introduction of environmentally friendly solutions to specific information and communications company. This company will become environmentally friendly, and it will move in the market, which in turn will lead to more substantially reduce CO2 emissions compared to that provided by the company.
Rapid urbanization and the attendant growth of investment means that, in the big cities need to reduce CO2 emissions will be the driving force behind the development of intelligent environmental decisions. Infrastructure of the 21 st century, which created the industry ICT, opens up the possibility of investing in intellectual solutions that can provide basic services such as transportation, heating, cooling and lighting, with the effective use of resources, which contributes to global sustainable development.
For example, reducing emissions contribute intelligent transportation and communication systems - people, roads and vehicles are combined into a network that provides remote and dematerialization, and allows the exchange of routes, guides and information on traffic jams. A study conducted by Ericsson, showed that with the introduction of telemedicine applications for consultation in the hospital visits are less than half the people. Ericsson Smart Grid solutions enable utilities and households to better manage energy consumption, and Connected Home solution allows to automate and control the inclusion of electrical appliances, lighting and surveillance.
