The GFT white paper on GreenCoding highlights how sustainable software practices can cut energy use and emissions. ICT already consumes up to 9% of global electricity, projected to reach 21% by 2030, making efficient coding critical. GreenCoding spans three pillars: greener logic (efficient algorithms, modular design), greener methods (agile, CI/CD with energy-aware feedback), and greener platforms (optimizing cloud use, server utilization, and configurations). Techniques include shutting down idle modules, caching, dark mode, tree-shaking, and resource-light formats. Benefits go beyond sustainability, improving performance, reducing costs, and enhancing user experience.
