  1. Resource efficiency through ICT-applications Smarter Networks: Collaborating to Reducing CO2 Emissions Luis Neves GeSI Chairman Luis.Neves@telekom.de

  2. What is GeSI? • GeSI is a Global International Non for Profit Association to address sustainability (triple bottom line - social, environmental and economical) • industry led and open to full ICT industry • manufacturers, operators and regional associations • partnered with United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) and International Telecommunications Union (ITU), World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), the World resource Institute (WRI) and the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC) • Carbon Disclosure Project (Global Initiative of Institutional Investors representing more than 57 trillion USD of Asset under management) and WWF

  3. GeSI Partnerships Business Initiatives for Sustainable Development Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition UN Organisations WBCSD

  4. SCOPE WITHIN SCOPE: PATHWAYS TO 2020 OUT OF SCOPE: GAMING, AUDIO, VIDEO, MEDICAL EQUIPMENT

  5. PROJECTIONS TO 2020 The global footprint by sub-sector PCs remain largest contributor to emissions

  6. REDUCING ICT SECTOR EMISSIONS

  7. THE ENABLING EFFECT SMART 2020 EXAMINED: > Dematerialisation > Smart motors > Smart logistics > Smart buildings > Smart grids

  8. DEMATERIALISATION The substitution of high carbon products and activities with low carbon alternatives: > Replacing face-to-face meetings with tele- and videoconferencing > Remote working > Paper with email/online billing > CDs with online music Total abatement potential of dematerialisation in 2020: 460 Mt CO2e

  9. SMART BUILDINGS > Global building emissions responsible for 8% total emissions in 2002 (3.36 Gt CO2e) - 11.7 Gt CO2e if energy to run buildings is included. SMART BUILDINGS > Technologies used to make the design, construction and operations of buildings more efficient, applicable to both new and existing property. > Building management systems (BMS) run heating and cooling systems. > Software to switch off PCs, monitors and lights when not in use. > Improved building design for energy efficiency.

  10. SMART BUILDINGS Total abatement potential of SMART buildings in 2020: 1.68 Gt CO2e

  11. SMART BUILDINGS

  12. SMART GRIDS > Power sector responsible for 24% global emissions in 2002. > Expected to be responsible for 14.26 Gt CO2e in 2020. SMART GRIDS > Smart meters – customer information on energy use > Interactive energy generation > Advanced grid management systems > Demand management systems (dynamic demand) > Reduce transmissions and distribution (T&D) losses > Integration of renewables

  13. SMART GRIDS Total abatement potential of SMART grids in 2020: 2.03 Gt CO2e

  14. SMART 2020 framework organizes areas of interventionfrom a solution/offer perspective... Smart Motors Smart Logistics Smart Buildings Smart Grids Demateriali-zation Main Levers for Emission Reduction • Process optimization • Consumption monitoring • Consumer accountability • Emissions monitoring • Transport Optimization • Consumption monitoring • Emission sensitive design • Consumption monitoring • Process redesign • Network management • Process Optimization • Consumption Monitoring Solution Providers IT and Telco's SMART 2020 framework clearly identifies solutions for emission reduction in which ICT can be an important part of

  15. The size of the “opportunity” ENABLING OPPORTUNITY: The ICT can facilitate carbon reductions across sectors world-wide up to 15% of total emissions by 2020, or 7.8GtCO2 emissions through products and services. This is an opportunity 5x bigger than the size of the sector’s own footprint. 1,5 GtCO2 30 billion € 7,8 GtCO2 623 billion € ENABLING OPPORTUNITY ICT FOOTPRINT
