Latest innovation in IT for a greener economy


The building industries as well as business, governments, non-government organisations (NGOs) and academic institutions are adopting the latest innovation in IT to manage their resources efficiently.  The IT should also be regarded as the elementary infrastructure in conjugation with electricity, water supply and healthcare to achieve their goals. 
As for example, ITC Limited, an India based  IT company, has increased the incomes of some small-scale farmers in India with the introduction of internet kiosks that allow them to avail the information on existing crop prices, farming techniques and local weather reports.
In Japan, global IT firm Fujitsu is building up new technologies that unite sensors and cloud-based applications aiding local authorities to forecast and respond to natural disasters.
IT innovations like cloud computing are mostly recognized solutions at the time of developing in a more sustainable way. Sensors and other devices which accumulate huge volume of data and smart cities, smart grids for energy and water, and similar trends in sustainability mainly rely on these technologies.  The technology facilitates people to minimize costs and environmental forces with proper allocation of resources.
Upcoming IT technologies can scrutinize and provide details on environmental impacts to develop corporate and social responsibility (CSR) management for firms, especially for those work in markets with government directives involving regular CSR reporting.
The customer can get all the information like data on energy, carbon, water, waste and supply chain sustainability in a solitary application whenever they require the information. All the information are constantly updated for observing advancement and detecting areas for development on an on-going basis.   
A Norway based solar manufacturer Renewable Energy Corporation (REC Solar) utilizes  IT technology to bring reliability for weathering the industry’s recent disaster of reducing profit margins and slow demand.
Head of Asia Pacific for REC Solar Matt Daly commented that its fully-automated manufacturing and testing processes gave it a competitive advantage over cost and quality.
The character of solar production needs high precision and a near-zero threshold for error which is obtainable with the proper application of technology, people and tightly run processes.
A computerized systems required for performing tasks like  ordering supplies, tracking and shipping client orders, and organizing with distributors are all incorporated into a system that managers can avail at any time.
IT technology can automate and augment the procedure to be useful research and development of the firm.
As for instance, a new programme introduced by the United States-based National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration applies satellite-driven global positioning systems (GPS) to defend dying out right whales. Specifically prepared buoys ‘listen in’ on the communication of right whales and alert nearby boats to their whereabouts.
Global NGO WWF’s ‘EcoGuru’ application facilitates people to work out and advance their ecological footprint, and their website provides an index to assist companies getting sustainable sources of paper.
The IT technologies can put in to a sustainable future and incorporate solutions for socio-economic, environmental and economic development.
