Our «Resource Efficiency» strategy directly addresses the unsustainable global demand for natural resources. This pressure is driven by population growth (projected to exceed 9 billion by 2030), rapid urbanization, and mass digitization, all clashing with a strictly limited and depleting supply of raw materials.
Today, 2 billion people still lack access to electricity or clean water. Modern IT and industrial technologies can bridge this gap by increasing resource productivity up to tenfold, slashing pollution, and building smart cities and sustainable agriculture. By 2030, these efficiencies can achieve 20% to 40% in energy and material savings compared to 2015 levels, saving 25 billion barrels of oil and 330 trillion litters of water (Source: WRI, UN).
Driven by these fundamentals, the markets for eco-efficient technologies are expanding by 8% to 12% annually—more than four times faster than global GDP. This sector is on track to exceed USD 7 trillion by 2030 (Source: OECD, IEA, McKinsey).
