THE COMPANY

Green Communications is an innovative company created in 2010 with a unique expertise in wireless networks and distributed systems. The company is strongly engaged in answering the Internet multi-faced challenge of increasing traffic, mobility, and carbon footprint.  Therefore, we created Green PI, a low power Internet and edge cloud platform providing fast and resilient digital services to users and IoT devices with mobility and low carbon impact. Green PI operating at multiple locations form an Internet of Edges (IoE). IoE is the equivalent of a large cloud distributed at the edge providing data security, sovereignty and low carbon footprint. Green PI is the result of 20 years of research and development and a technology transfer from top French universities (Sorbonne University and Paris Saclay) and the CNRS. 

We Pioneer in Low Carbon Internet Solutions

Carbon Footprint of Internet of Edges

Green Communications has conducted a study to evaluate the carbon footprint of cloud, edge and Internet of Edges solutions. The results reveal that bringing digital services closer to producers and consumers of data and connecting them directly to each other, can reduce the carbon footprint of digital communications by a factor of 16.
