Vision

EXIGENCE is committed to reducing the overall energy consumption and carbon-footprint of ICT service delivery. Contrary to existing approaches, which address individual domains, EXIGENCE takes on the behemoth by improving the energy consumption and considering the type of energy sources used by not only the individual tenants in each heterogeneous domain of the ICT value chain but the energy/carbon footprint of the entire ICT ecosystem. The project will conceive a system and define suitable metrics and inter-domain data exposure means for assessing end-to-end ICT service delivery.

Through our dedication to reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions in the ICT sector, EXIGENCE is poised to make meaningful contributions to the European Green Deal and its legislative frameworks, including the European Climate Law, and the “Fit for 55” initiatives. Our innovative approaches to data measurement, resource optimisation, integration of renewable energy, user engagement and circular economy practices, creates a robust framework for achieving these ambitious environmental goals.
In an era where every action counts, EXIGENCE is not just looking at how to serve end-users; it is redefining how the entire ICT ecosystem can reduce CO2 emissions and energy consumption. EXIGENCE identified use cases highlighting both the challenges and tremendous opportunities that lie ahead!
As our digital works expands, energy demands in telecommunications are escalating, and so do energy needs and CO2 emissions. EXIGENCE aims to tackle these challenges through its 3 pillars: measure, optimise and incentivise. Explore how EXIGENCE is poised to create a greener, more efficient telecommunications landscape.
EXIGENCE was present at the Lisbon Energy Summit & Exhibition. During the event, Project Coordinator Rita Campos had the opportunity of exchanging a few words with Pedro Martins Barata to elaborate more on decarbonisation goals for Europe and the associated challenges that come along.
From 3 - 6 June 2024, several EXIGENCE partners will be at the EuCNC & 6G Summit in Antwerp, Belgium.
In the global pursuit of sustainability, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) often stands out as a beacon of hope, promising innovative solutions to mitigate environmental challenges. However, amidst the celebration of ICT’s potential, there lies a significant yet overlooked issue: the carbon footprint of the technology itself.
