Innovation that matters for the world

If we are to achieve the carbon emission reductions that scientists and governments around the world believe are required then organisations need to be innovative in the way they become more energy efficient and perhaps capitalise on opportunities to develop lower carbon products and services.

Today's energy and climate-related issues are at the top of IBM's strategic agenda. In a world where everything is becoming intelligent and connected, addressing energy and environment challenges and opportunities requires innovative technology and deep business insight.

Based on IBM's own experiences in environmental policies since 1971, and in working with our clients worldwide, we have developed the IBM Energy and Environment Framework which considers the challenges and potential solutions across the many functions of an organisation. IBM believes this holistic approach is key to reducing an organisation's environmental impact successfully.
