Getting to green abundance - Shape a sustainable future together
Our Vision: Green Abundance
Green abundance is our vision for a green world, a world in which the environmental impact of our society has reduced to a level that does not jeopardise the ability of future generations to meet their needs.
A key element of green abundance is low-carbon energy at lower prices than today’s fossil fuel-based energy. Solar energy, both de-centralised and in large installations, will become the backbone of renewable energy supply. Offshore wind farms, hydropower, biomass and geothermal energy are other renewable sources that will complement solar power in satisfying energy demand.
Energy in our changing world
The energy sector will see profound changes in the coming decades, brought about by environmental impact and energy transition. Power production will shift towards higher levels of decentralised renewable resources, adding to the needs of effective energy storage and flexible grid power management.
Customers will become co-producers, requiring the grid to provide them with energy continuity at low financial and environmental cost. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) systems will evolve to reduce the environmental impact of fossil energy production for as long as renewable energy can’t meet all of the world’s energy demands. In distribution, the need to power electric vehicles will create technical and financial opportunities for electricity distribution companies, as the fossil fuel market declines.
Solar energy is the most promising renewable resource. A solar power coverage of six per cent of the Sahara could meet the entire world’s energy demand. Of all renewables, it has the fewest environmental side-effects.
Our route to sustainability - and yours
We help clients and their customers to achieve sustainability – and we practise what we preach. We aim to cut our organisation’s 2020 carbon footprint by 50 per cent from our 2008 baseline. According to Gartner, ICT is responsible for two per cent of the world’s carbon emissions. Logica’s sustainability offering is about reducing the remaining 98 per cent.
These are some of our proven sustainability programmes that can help your organisation meet both environmental and financial targets.
