LENOVO TRUSCALE DAAS FOR SUSTAINABILITY

can drive efficiency and drive down costs.” Lenovo too remains on track to meet its own 2030 emissions goals. “We have large teams that are working towards making this happen,” says James. “We’re validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative and we were the first OEM to be validated by it. That’s all part of our net zero journey to get going towards 2050. We’re on track to hit those targets.” Future With the successful launch of TruScale DaaS for Sustainability, James is now focusing on the further development of it. “We see this reporting trend continuing to be important and want to continue to develop the carbon impact portal,” he adds. “Eventually, we want to bring that to all our customers. But for now, we’ll focus on making that available across TruScale DaaS for Sustainability and getting that into the hands of more of our customers. “We will also continue to increase our device data quality. We will soon launch fully certified lifecycle assessments for all
our Thinkpad range, and we’ll continue to build that data out as well. Also getting fully certified LCA across all our services to make sure that we have the very highest quality data that companies can use to report on. We will continue to enhance our LISSA tool as well, so that we can give better advice to our customers on this as well.” As well as LISSA, Lenovo will also look to further harness the potential of AI – including using it to help to reduce emissions in the IT space. “Companies are getting to grips with AI and energy use and this is going to be a big area as data centres are using more energy – but it can also be used to find ways to bring emissions down too,” he says. “Another area we’re looking at is whether we can do something similar to TruScale DaaS for Sustainability in our infrastructure as a service area as well, which will involve similar services and tools that help our customers to reduce their energy use and emissions in that space too.” n
