The European Framework Initiative for Energy and Environmental Efficiency in the ICT sector aims to promote green IT solutions that can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions from cities, which contribute to 70% of global emissions. The project supports various stakeholders, including public administrations and businesses, in becoming more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly through resources such as self-assessment tools, webinars, and a marketplace for sustainable ICT suppliers. Key cities like Malmö and Linköping demonstrate successful implementations of eco-friendly practices, reducing their carbon footprints through innovative ICT solutions.

Why do we need green IT?
Cities contribute to 70%
of the world’s
greenhouse gases (GHG),
where +50% World
Population lives.

ICT sector
Can save up to €600 billion &
decrease 15% of carbon
emissions in 2020 by becoming
energy efficient (The Climate
Group).
Accounts for 8-10% of
the EU’s electricity
consumption and up to
4% of its carbon
emissions.
SMARTER CITIES ARE KEY FACTORS IN THE FIGHT AGAINST CLIMATE CHANGE,
ACHIEVE COST SAVINGS & MAKING ICT SECTOR MORE SUSTAINABLE!
If 100 of the world’s largest cities embark on a low-carbon development path,
global GHG could decreased around 10 percent a year (World Bank).
