Solutions and policy remedies to the challenge of decarbonisation are urgent considering the timelines and milestones ahead for net zero.

The GCC Sustainability Innovation Hub has been formed by telcos with operations in the Middle East, North Africa and parts of Asia, with a view to driving up renewables usage. It aims to take on the challenges of decarbonisation through a new model of energy sourcing.

This research presents the state of play and outlook for renewables. It outlines the long-term benefits to decarbonisation that such an energy transition offers. Focus areas cover the net-zero outlook; the state of play for renewables in telecoms; calculations on the financial benefits from renewables and better energy efficiency; the enablement effect on vertical sectors from mobile and IoT connectivity; and how to address the constraints to renewables access.

Topics

Mobile operators face a defining moment in authentication. SMS one-time password (OTP) remains widely used and commercially important, but fraud, rising costs and competition from passkeys and app-based solutions are weakening its position. At the same time, the customer authentication market is growing. This presents operators with an opportunity to build on the reach and trust of the mobile number to secure a larger role in a rapidly expanding market. API-based solutions will be central to this.
