Digital Decarbonization – Fighting Climate Change with Intelligence
DER SPIEGEL - "Green Lifestyle" supplement - of September 18, 2021 with an interview on the coming topic of digital decarbonization. Four questions - four answers: 1️⃣ What is Digital Decarbonization all about? 2️⃣ How can the use of this digital technology protect the climate and help reducing costs at the same time? 3️⃣ Why is technological neutrality critical to the success of decarbonization initiatives? 4️⃣ Is Digital [...]
Decarbonization is not about one size fits all
Digitalization can support and accelerate decarbonization. One principle is technological neutrality. In an interview, Springer author Stefan Niessen highlights possible scenarios and timeframes. SpringerProfessional: Why do you argue so vehemently for technology neutrality in the decarbonization process? Stefan Niessen: According to the understanding of our authors' collective, technology neutrality means that digital decarbonization pursues a holistic approach without committing to specific technologies from the very beginning. Here, our [...]
Digital decarbonization: Helping municipalities combat climate change
If we want to achieve the Paris climate targets, it is also essential that our cities and communities significantly reduce their emissions of climate-damaging greenhouse gases. Digital decarbonization is an efficient way for municipalities, say experts and specialized authors Oliver D. Doleski and Sebastian Thiem. The way we live and work is a major contributor to climate change. Cities and towns today release a large proportion of all [...]
Digital decarbonization for decarbonized digitalization
Decarbonized digitalization: The share of digitalization in global energy demand has only one direction: it is increasing. Key measures to save the climate are based on digital modeling and control, which in turn are fueling this increase. Here, data centers are particularly challenged.The megatrends of digitalization and decarbonization are the subject of intense public and political debate today, also in the context of advancing climate change. In the public [...]

Digital Decarbonization for the Smart City
Interview in the Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung (F.A.Z.) of 29.03.2021 with Oliver D. Doleski, member from the group of authors ‚Digital Decarbonization‘ and of the Bundesverbands Smart City e. V. (BVSC).
Digital decarbonization as an opportunity for Smart City and Smart Region
Our way of living and working is responsible for a large proportion of global greenhouse gas emissions. Metropolitan areas and industrial zones have a key role to play in achieving the Paris climate targets. The German Smart City Association (Bundesverband Smart City e. V.) is therefore advocating innovative ideas that will enable Smart Cities and Smart Regions to help combat climate change. One viable solution is: Digital Decarbonization. Oliver D. [...]
