Published: December 2009 Type: Intellect reports Area: Energy and Environment/Public Sector Summary The ICT sector is in a unique position. On the one hand our products and services use energy, and we must do everything we can to optimise efficiency and improve performance. On the other hand, our offerings help other sectors to work more efficiently and reduce their emissions.Some technologies enhance existing processes and drive incremental change; others are more transformational, enabling new ways of working, driving dematerialisation and leading to new business models. Their emissions reduction potential is much more dramatic. So, ICT and related technologies play a vital role in helping us achieve our emissions reduction targets, both in the UK and the EU.
