電信廢棄物和循環性的基準

"儘管循環利用備受關注，但大多數營運商預計其回收率將下降。解決這個問題需要全行業的合作。"

Analysys Mason 對 31 家網路營運商（受訪者來自世界各地）進行的一項保密調查顯示，有限的廢棄物回收和轉移基礎設施是營運商實現減少廢棄物和電子廢棄物目標的重大障礙。為了應對這些課題，營運商正在考慮 "硬體即服務" 的商業模式，並與廢棄物回收公司建立合作夥伴關係。

本報告研究了全球電信業，並提供了獨特的廢棄物和循環利用基準以及源自 Analysys Mason 進行的保密研究的見解，包括：

• 廢棄物產生量（危險和非危險）
• 廢棄物產生量的預期變化
• 以成分劃分的廢棄物產生量
• 回收、再利用、轉移和掩埋的廢棄物總量
• 實現廢棄物減量目標的障礙
• 減少電子廢棄物的障礙
• 廢棄物管理的規劃策略

"Most operators anticipate their recycling rates to decline, despite talking a lot about circularity. Addressing this problem will require industry-wide co-ordination."

The results of Analysys Mason's confidential survey of 31 network operators, including respondents from all regions of the world, reveal that limited infrastructure for recycling and repurposing waste is a major barrier to operators' waste and e-waste reduction goals. Operators plan to explore hardware-as-a-service business models and partnerships with waste recycling companies to mitigate these challenges.

This report provides a range of unique waste and circularity benchmarks and insights derived from a confidential survey undertaken by Analysys Mason, including:

• total waste production (hazardous and non-hazardous waste)
• expected change in waste production
• breakdown of waste production by component
• total waste recycled, reused, repurposed and sent to landfill
• barriers to waste reduction goals
• barriers to e-waste reduction
• intended strategies for waste management.
