Digitalisation that builds progress, wellbeing, and a future for everyone

Telefónica Tech is working to reduce the environmental footprint of all its activities. Smart technologies are the key to decarbonising the economy, boosting renewable energies, and undertaking inclusive and fair digitisation to tackle the climate challenge. Smart technologies that offer opportunities for progress to everyone and have a positive impact on the planet.

Our experts bring all their experience and knowledge to develop, integrate and implement next-generation strategies, and technologies that generate growth opportunities for companies and bring value to society.

Currently, 58% of Telefónica Tech's products and services have the Eco Smart seal, verified by AENOR, which certifies that our digital solutions for companies achieve what they promise: to optimise the consumption of resources such as energy and water, reduce CO₂ emissions, and promote the circular economy.

Our partner to protect the environment

HOW DO OUR SOLUTIONS CONTRIBUTE?

Optimisation with IoT devices and connectivity solutions

We offer IoT connectivity solutions thanks to IoT & Big Data services that improve measurement, control and action processes in real time, reducing the costs associated with our clients' operational processes in sectors such as industry, energy and utilities.

We also develop fleet management solutions to reduce fuel consumption, smart lighting to save energy in public lighting, smart agriculture to optimise water consumption, and energy efficiency services, among others.

Shared Cloud platforms and secure access services

Energy consumption and CO₂ emissions are reduced thanks to shared cloud platforms.

In addition, we facilitate remote meetings and gatherings through software solutions (SaaS) or the generation of digital certificates, which avoid travel and reduce fuel consumption and associated emissions; as well as the massive remote storage of data on cloud servers, which are highly efficient compared to the use of local servers.
