 Define Industry specific metrics by integrating
economic, social and environmental dimensions.
2. Engage: Information at the point of action
3. Integrate: Modelling the unintended
consequences
 Working with existing enterprise applications and
data sources and applying them to financial,
manufacturing, and other business processes.
Steps for sustainability
 Environmental resources once believed to be limitless are increasingly
seen as limited.
 People need proof.
 Help us to take other factors into consideration.
Why data ?
 “Technology is accelerating
the use of sustainability as a
driver of growth, particularly
information technology, as it
allows greater monitoring,
independent verification,
transparency, and accuracy
of resource usage and its
impact.” —Alan McGill,
PwC (PwC UK’s Sustainability &
Climate Change practice)
Role of Information

 Access data from isolated places
 Personalised services
 Data for Public Management

 Data for Accountability of government & businesses
 Provide transparency to public
 Evidence for delay
Data for Development
 World energy consumption is expected to triple by 2050.
 Need central control for efficiency.
 Result: Less power outage, better integration, smarter consumption
Smart Grid
 Sustainable communities refers to environmental, social and economic
sustainability of the built (residential) environment, including land use,
transport and connectivity, satisfaction with neighbourhoods and
communities, etc.
 More energy used on household appliances (27% emission).
