Green ITN:
when innovation drives energy savings

Our Green ITN program is the engine of our strategy to reduce direct emissions. Picture the annual electricity consumption of a city like Nantes saved in a single year. That’s what we achieved in 2024: 1,358 GWh of electricity and 127 million liters of fuel saved.
How do we achieve this? By improving energy efficiency everywhere and deploying next-generation equipment that uses less energy while delivering better performance. Our two newest data centers in France consume 30% less energy than previous ones and use “free cooling,” a technology that relies on outdoor air to cool equipment naturally. It reduces the need for artificial air-conditioning by 80%.

Through the Green ITN program, we saved 1,358 GWh of electricity and 127 million liters of fuel in 2024. Between 2015 and 2024, cumulative savings reached more than 6.6 TWh of electricity and 550 million liters of fuel, avoiding at least 4.26 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions

Bringing our entire ecosystem with us

The biggest challenge on our path to Net Zero Carbon is Scope 3, which accounts for 80% of our total carbon footprint. To tackle it, we launched the “Partners to Net Zero Carbon” program in 2024, a collaborative approach that aligns our suppliers with our decarbonization goals. And this is not just a declaration of intent. We work closely with our 35 largest suppliers – who represent 60% of our purchase-related emissions – to identify reduction levers and implement concrete improvement plans.

Solar and wind, our partners for a cleaner future

Solar and wind power have become essential allies in our energy transition. In 2024, nearly half of all electricity we consumed already came from renewable sources. In Europe, long-term green electricity contracts (Power Purchase Agreements and Guarantees of Origin) now cover more than 75% of our electricity needs. In Africa and the Middle East, our focus is on solar. By the end of 2024, more than 12,000 telecom sites, over 25% of our infrastructure in the region, were powered by solar energy, avoiding more than 330,000 tons of CO₂ emissions each year.
We also go further by linking telecom infrastructure with local “mini-grids,” small solar farms that provide electricity to surrounding communities. These innovations deliver a double benefit: reducing our emissions while supporting local development.
