InterDigital Unveils Microsite Containing New Research Examining Tech’s Impact on Energy Sustainability
November 11 2020 - 4:00AM
Technology has always been about new capabilities, faster
connections, and more exciting experiences, but the industry and
its users must address the burgeoning energy footprint of those new
technologies and drive towards responsible choices. To that end,
InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDCC), a mobile and video technology
research and development company, today introduced a new
sustainability initiative to drive awareness and discussion of the
energy footprint of wireless, video, and future innovative
technologies.
For decades, InterDigital’s research and thought leadership has
analyzed the transformational benefit and impact of innovative
technologies in wireless and video. The sustainability microsite
dedicates research to begin to quantify the tech ecosystem’s energy
dependence and expose new solutions to mitigate tech’s rapidly
expanding energy footprint. The microsite launches with white
papers on the energy footprint of the wireless and visual
technology industries, and will grow to feature research reports,
industry surveys, webinars, and other content dedicated to driving
discussion around greater energy sustainability in tech.
“Over the years the tech ecosystem has undergone incredible
transformation, and we are now thrust into a new era of
consciousness around the energy demands that fuel our most
cutting-edge innovations,” said InterDigital President and CEO Bill
Merritt. “Our energy footprint is increasingly consequential, and
the decisions we make today will reverberate well into our future.
Through this initiative, InterDigital is pursuing a deeper
understanding of how energy underpins our industry so we’re better
positioned to develop solutions that enable a sustainable and
tech-driven future for us all.”
The first white paper released as part of the Sustainability
initiative is an InterDigital and ABI Research study,
Environmentally Sustainable 5G Deployment, which quantifies the
energy footprint for approaching 5G deployment and identifies best
practices to encourage energy sustainability as wireless and other
technologies evolve. The study may be downloaded from the
Sustainability microsite, here.
