'Tis The Season to go Green
Going green means more than putting timers on lights. For the communications community, it includes research, software design, procurement, manufacturing, power conservation, call center strategies, cooling processes and more.
emissions are considered very likely to be
put in place soon after the new year.
This means service providers, network owners, manufacturers and suppliers will have a decision to make: position themselves as a green communications provider or risk losing out on a multi-trillion dollar global market.
Energy companies are poised to take a good share of the potential green service offerings if the communications industry isn’t.
- More efficient use of power in data centers
- Reducing energy consumption
- Remote energy management services for the office and home
- Identifying existing network and energy path inefficiencies
- Improved energy management
- Replacing a compliance perspective with a continuous improvement outlook
- Creating new revenue streams using existing technologies and infrastructure to deliver enhanced green communication services
- Electronic communications reduce the demand for first-class letters and newspaper subscriptions, decreasing the need for paper, saving trees, conserving energy and lowering transportation costs.
- As more workers telecommute from home or other remote locations, billions of gallons of gasoline are saved.
- As less commercial office space is used, less energy is consumed.
- As more people shop online, gasoline and energy costs decrease, the number of cars on the road declines and retail buildings become less necessary.
- As more workers teleconference, business travel is reduced, generating less carbon and other emissions.
