6G Benefits on Environment &
Sustainability Goals
Sustainability Goals through efficient and intelligent 6G infrastructure:
• Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all
• Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all
• Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all
• Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation
Environmental impact of efficient and intelligent 6G infrastructure:
• Climate Change Goal, trust and safety of society: 6G with clean energy technologies to limit warming goal by 2 degrees from pre-industrial era.
• Carbon neutrality and sustainability goals: To enable solutions in various disciplines, e.g. virtual learning, smart travelling etc., that eventually decrease the carbon footprint.
• Low-cost renewable clean and affordable energy technologies.
• Improve the communication and energy systems resilience and could play a key role in achieving zero (or even negative) carbon emission solutions.
• Innovative solutions to promote circular economy are possible using the 6G technology.
