The Green ICT ecosystem, promoting sustainable ICT services, products and processes in organisations, began operations in Finland on 1 June 2022. The professional network is open to anyone developing or purchasing ICT services.

This project coaches ICT companies in the Helsinki-Uusimaa region in climate conscious digital service development and supports the private and the public sector into making greener digital procurements.

Artificial intelligence, data and high-speed networks are needed for making the circular economy a reality, for carbon balance monitoring, for the implementation of low-emission transport, work and housing, and for supporting climate action by citizens. At the same time, however, the environmental load of digitalisation must be reduced.

To make our way of life more environmentally friendly, we need accurate and intuitive data. The K Group uses data to help customers make responsible choices.

The world’s data centres generate as much CO2 as air traffic. Transferring waste heat to the district heating network is a partial solution – many other measures are also needed.
