Reminder- GeSI Webinar  

Towards a SMARTer 2020 - How ICT is driving a sustainable future       

23rd September 2013  
17:00 - 18:00  CET    
Join us for the webinar 'Towards a SMARTer 2020 - How ICT is driving a sustainable future' on Monday 23rd September 2013 at 17:00-18:00 CET. 

Launched in 2012, the Smarter 2020 report highlighted that the use of ICT could save 9.1GtCO2e of harmful greenhouse gases from being emitted worldwide. The study identified GHG abatement potential from ICT-enabled solutions across six sectors of the economy including power, transportation, manufacturing, consumer and service, agriculture, and buildings.  

Since the launch of the Smarter 2020 report, GeSI members have been developing these enablement solutions and working to reduce emissions in their operations and those of their partners and customers.  

This webinar will showcase a number of GeSI members' carbon emission reduction initiatives to date, including the use of ICT technology to enable customers to measure and reduce their emissions, fleet fuel efficiency improvements, energy management systems and smart metering.
