There are a bewildering range of displays on offer from suppliers - from LED to TFT, powered by mains, battery and solar. With the climate emergency and environmental concerns high in people’s minds, the impact of our choices of technology needs to be considered more than ever.
Purchasing and environmental teams are increasingly expecting questions to be asked whenever equipment is purchased.
- What is the impact of the choices we make?
- Do we know which technologies are better for the environment?
- Do we know the carbon impact of different display types and technologies?
RTIG has instigated a project to assist in answering these questions and indeed, to determine if they are they are in fact the right questions to be asking. To deliver the project a working group was formed of authorities and suppliers to identify current good practice and turn this into a guidance document.
