During its 54th plenary meeting (9th and 10th March 2023), the BEREC Board of Regulators approved the Draft BEREC Report on Sustainability Indicators for Electronic Communications Networks and Services (Report) for public consultation.

This Report aims to help identify relevant sustainability indicators, which are instrumental in measuring and communicating the environmental footprint of the electronic communications sector. It also analyses the potential role of National Regulatory Authorities (NRA) in efforts to harmonise sustainability indicators and the use of methodologies for measuring the environmental impact of ECN/ECS.

Since the publication of its Report on environmental sustainability in June 2022,[1] BEREC has continued to build up its knowledge on the important topic of sustainability in order to contribute with its expertise in shaping the twin ‘green and digital’ transition.

In accordance with BEREC’s policy on public consultations (PCs), all stakeholders were invited to submit their inputs via EU survey portal by 12 April 2023 (17:00 CET).

The following Pubic consultation Report summarises the responses received to the public consultation and presents BEREC’s position with regard to suggestions and proposals put forward in those responses, as relevant.
