30 Jan Achieving business sustainability through a connected ESG strategy

In the corporate landscape of 2026, business sustainability has ceased to be an isolated initiative to become the central axis of operations. Organisations no longer only seek profitability, but a measurable positive impact through an ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) strategy. On this path, high-capacity connectivity plays an enabling role, transforming digital infrastructure into a tool for decarbonisation.

 

 

Infrastructure as an engine for decarbonisation

 

The foundation of any green strategy begins at the physical layer. The transition from copper to optical fibre is not just a speed upgrade; it is a decision for energy efficiency.

 

 

Optical fibre: efficiency versus copper 

 

Optical fibre consumes significantly less energy than traditional copper networks to transmit the same volume of data. As a medium that transmits light pulses instead of electricity, heating is minimal and the need for cooling at network nodes is reduced, laying the foundations for real and tangible business sustainability.

 

 

The neutral network model and impact reduction 

 

At lyntia, we champion a neutral network model. Sharing a single fibre infrastructure among multiple operators avoids the duplication of civil works and cabling in cities. This approach minimises the environmental impact of construction and optimises the use of natural resources, aligning with a responsible ESG strategy.

 

 

Innovation to learn how to reduce the digital carbon footprint 

 

Digitalisation must not only be fast; it must be conscious. There are concrete ways in which an advanced network helps organisations meet their environmental goals.

 

 

Remote working and strategic telepresence

 

A robust, low-latency network is what makes high-quality remote working possible. By facilitating seamless virtual meetings, companies discover how to reduce the digital carbon footprint by avoiding unnecessary commutes and corporate travel, drastically reducing CO₂ emissions associated with transport.

 

 

Green digitalisation through IoT and sensors 

 

Thanks to fibre capillarity, companies can deploy IoT (Internet of Things) solutions to monitor their electricity, water, and climate control usage in real time. This “green digitalisation” allows for the intelligent management of buildings and facilities, immediately detecting inefficiencies and optimising overall energy consumption.

 

 

lyntia: a strategic partner for a green future 

 

Technology is a fundamental pillar in the transition towards a sustainable future. At lyntia, our ESG policy is not just a statement of intent; it is a commitment backed by certifications that endorse our environmental, social, and governance management. 

As part of our commitment, we work continuously to improve the efficiency of our fibre network of over 56,000 km. We understand that business sustainability is a challenge of constant innovation, and therefore we link our infrastructure with the highest standards of responsibility. You can delve deeper into our approach in the article on our commitment to a greener future.

 

 

Conclusion: the value of modern infrastructure 

 

Investing in modern telecommunications infrastructure ensures that a company is sustainable not only today but also in the future. A connected ESG strategy allows organisations to accurately measure, report, and improve their energy savings, turning connectivity into an asset of governance and transparency. 

At lyntia, we continue to deploy the network that enables companies to reach their sustainability goals, ensuring that the path towards digitalisation is, above all, a path towards a greener world.
