The internet consumes a lot of electricity. 416.2TWh per year to be precise. To give you some perspective, that’s more than the entire United Kingdom.
From data centres to transmission networks to the billions of connected devices that we hold in our hands, it is all consuming electricity, and in turn producing carbon emissions equal to or greater than the global aviation industry. Yikes!
We developed the first methodology for estimating the carbon emissions attributed to a website. This free tool is here to help raise awareness and inspire a more sustainable internet.
If you want help doing a more detailed analysis or need assistance reducing emissions from your web project, our team would be happy to discuss your requirements.
Website Carbon allows you to embed your carbon efficiency into your website to inform your users and make them more sustainability-aware
