Our 6 sustainability goals for 6G

SUSTAIN-6G, as a Lighthouse Project within the European Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU), is focused on promoting holistic sustainability in 6G systems by addressing six key objectives. The project aims to understand the 6G technology landscape, create an inventory of state-of-the-art approaches and technologies, and identify sustainability needs and indicators.

It seeks to define and assess sustainability goals, enhance the integration of 6G with vertical use cases (UCs) to reduce environmental impact and develop a Sustainability Management Plan (SMP) for sustainable network operations. Additionally, the project will validate and demonstrate the sustainability of 6G technologies and deliver guidelines and a strategic roadmap for 6G development.

Our project partners are key players

 

SUSTAIN-6G partner organisations are key players in their area of expertise.

Our consortium consists of 24 partners from 10 European countries with a well-balanced share in terms of effort among leading academia (universities and a research institute), major telecommunication operators, experienced industrial partners (telecommunication and verticals), and innovative SMEs having a share of one third in the overall effort.
