Sparkling Biz Matters Series Sustainable Technology for Greener Enterprises

For all these years, we have witnessed that prioritizing sustainable development evidently engenders a win-win situation for both customers and enterprises. CITIC Telecom CPC’s Sparkling Biz Matters series will present the sustainable practice for businesses to build up corporate social responsibility and guide you through the journey.

Sustainability is deemed one of the universal values, essentially advocating a way of life or development process that does not deplete natural resources for the good of future generations. To achieve such an ideal reality, sustainable technology came into existence and has been fervently promoted in business operations, and in general, it refers to various types of innovations that highlight natural resources and environmental protection, as well as economic and social development.

It brings us to an ever more important business concept of today — the ESG principles. “ESG” stands for environmental, social and governance outcomes, which have become a common indicator in the market. To go green, enterprises can start with the following areas using sustainable technology:

Data Center Operation Optimization
By optimizing energy utilization and operation, it can promote energy saving and natural resources preservation in data centers without compromising its efficiency. CITIC Telecom CPC’s DataHOUSE™ AR Remote Hand integrates AR technology into data center services to realize remote operations and maintenance of IT equipment in the data center. It facilitates cross-regional collaboration of engineers while eliminating unnecessary travel, further reducing carbon footprints.
Cloud Computing
A reliable ICT service provider can offer seamless migration to private, public or even hybrid clouds, and provide managed cloud services that free up enterprises’ internal servers, and professional advice to better allocate IT resources to minimize data storage waste, eventually lowering power consumption.
Data & Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Using real-time sensors and data analytics tools, enterprises can monitor and meter energy consumption and environmental performance data to produce actionable insights for better and more transparent ESG outcomes. More accurate forecasts of energy demand and power consumption patterns can be analyzed using machine learning and AI algorithms to formulate appropriate sustainable development strategies.

Sustainable Technology is the Backbone of ESG

Undeniably, the business world has come together to accommodate itself to an ESG-primed environment. Since 2021, Hong Kong, Mainland China, Singapore, the United States and the United Kingdom have individually revised and updated their ESG practice and environment-related disclosure guidance. Enterprises should brook no delay to set impactful ESG goals and demonstrate solid achievements, and the introduction of sustainable technology into enterprises is indispensable in the course of combating climate change.

Whether it be cost optimization, energy efficiency enhancement or better resource utilization, sustainable technology is at the center of optimizing the supply chain’s sustainability, not to mention its capabilities to drive ESG outcomes and guarantee responsible business practices by tracking operation performance, as well as its technical potentials in improving products, services and business models. While facing the expectations and pressure from customers and society, incorporating sustainable technology into your ESG strategies could never go wrong, since it delivers meaningful impacts on and creates values for both environmental protection and financial returns by improving the supply chain management.

However, of all the challenges, developing ESG goals from scratch and then tracking and making progress towards them without the involvement of experts is the most formidable.

In view of this dilemma, CITIC Telecom CPC helps enterprises to formulate their ESG work plans with its proficient and experienced sustainable technology capabilities including artificial intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR) and cloud computing technologies. Coupled with visualized ESG metrics generated by the algorithmic capability of CITIC Telecom CPC, enterprises are allowed to understand the entire picture of their sustainable journeys and attain their ESG goals effortlessly.
