- Satellites are intrinsically green – they run on sunshine
- A satellite launcher using hydrogen engine technology produces less CO2 than a Boeing 747 flying to New York
- Once dropped off by the launcher a communications satellite consumes a small amount of fuel to manoeuvre in space, averaging about 3 million miles to the gallon!
- Its transmissions are powered 100% by solar panels – space is the origin of solar cell technology
- We are probably the greenest sector in the telecoms and IT universe.
