While the focus of the Telco Sustainability Forum (available on demand here) is obviously around the technology and business strategies operators can use to drive energy efficiency, this is part of a bigger whole. Many emerging tools that help operators reduce power consumption and realize system-level energy efficiencies hinge on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and closed-loop automation; and any strategy that involves the adoption of AI in pursuit of closed-loop automation should include sustainability targets, it should also be comprehensive and mindful of that bigger picture.
