In 2023, the air emissions of greenhouse gases in the IT and other information services sector in Italy stood at 6.0 metric tons of CO2 equivalent per USD. Forecast data show a steady decline in emissions from 2024 to 2028, decreasing from 5.8 to 5.2 metric tons of CO2 equivalent per USD. This represents a year-on-year reduction with annual percentage changes as follows: 3.45% (2024-2025), 1.79% (2025-2026), 1.82% (2026-2027), and 3.70% (2027-2028). The projected five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) indicates an average annual decrease of approximately 3.13%.
Future trends to watch for:
- Adoption of green technologies and energy-efficient practices that could accelerate emission reductions.
- Regulatory changes at the European Union level targeting emissions, prompting further sector adjustments.
- Increased pressure from stakeholders and consumers toward sustainability, influencing IT service operations.
