Sustainability in Tech

Sustainability is one of the most critical issues of our time, having a transformative effect on industries and societies. The fulfillment of many sustainability mandates can only be accomplished through continued digital transformation and IT innovation. From low-carbon energy in datacenters, to robust IoT cybersecurity, to advances in digital workplace efficiency, the challenges and opportunities before the tech sector are diverse and complex. Digging deep into the multiple intersections of Technology and Sustainability, S&P Global Market Intelligence helps clients understand the Technology sector’s role in supporting the global shift to a more sustainable and equitable society.

Using the 451 Research Datacenter KnowledgeBase dataset, now available via Xpressfeed^TM and Snowflake, you can assess market and region energy current and future demand from datacenters.

The physical location of IT and Energy infrastructure has never been more important than it is today. The evolution of cloud services, 5G, & IoT devices have brought this need to the forefront, but the increased attention on sustainability, by both consumers and corporations, is changing the discussion. Decisions surrounding infrastructure proximity placement, like edge computing and corporate relationships will be critical to monitor not just today, but in the decades to come.

On this webinar, we discussed the site selection and sustainability challenges power plant, datacenter, and renewable energy stakeholders experience and how they can address them.

How to effectively treat environmental, social and governance issues, collectively known as ‘Sustainability,’ is shaping up to be one of the most significant agendas of our time. Major commitments are being made in company boardrooms, but the sustainability mandate is challenging for many companies to embrace. As businesses organize around their sustainability commitments, they will increasingly want to know not just that their suppliers themselves take sustainability issues seriously, but that the technologies and services they procure can directly support their own strategies.

451 Research provides the insights you need to navigate this evolving area.
