There are currently signs of a trend reversal in the demand for electricity in ICT. According to calculations carried out by Fraunhofer IZM, the annual demand for electricity in ICT is rising again since 2023, from around 50 TWh to over 72 TWh in 2033. In a recent study, Dr. phil. Lutz Stobbe and his team model the environmental impact of the production and use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in Germany over a period from 2013 to 2033. The ICT study was commissioned by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
