The Role of ICT
Copyright 2013 FUJITSU LIMITED
![Page 17: Lee Stewart, Fujitsu Australia Limited - The Role of ICT in a Sustainable Society](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051610/5492c9beac7959042e8b46e2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The role of ICT is twofold
Efficiency of ICT –
reducing the 3% of global
GHG emissions by
improving ICT efficiency
Enabling effect of ICT –
using ICT to help reduce
97% of global GHG
emissions, outside the
ICT industry

Cloud: reducing the ICT impact and as
enabler
Copyright 2013 FUJITSU LIMITED 18
Typical cloud benefits relate to
reducing impact of ICT itself ,
e.g. more sharing – less power
Less obvious but potentially
greater benefits are from cloud
facilitating environmental
improvements across an
organisation /industry/ society
The business case for these
solutions is now feasible due to
the cost and agility advantages
of cloud

Powering innovative research
In partnership with Fujitsu, HPC Wales is
enabling academic and commercial
projects to use high performance
computing for modelling weather
patterns and climate change, simulation
and prototyping, health and bioscience
and creative design, to name but a few.

Waste = Opportunity
If you can find waste in a system opportunities will follow
Can technology remove waste by improving the efficiency of a system?
