Telecom energy demand is projected to reach about 5%–6% of global electricity use by 2025, with data intensive services demand potentially doubling by 2030 if efficiency measures do not keep up. That makes sustainability in telecom less about one green upgrade and more about a balancing act across networks, facilities, and supply chains. We pull together the most telling figures from emissions, investment, and reporting standards to show where progress is measurable and where it can still slip.
