The UK’s copper switch-off is more than a technical transition. It’s a once-in-a-generation opportunity to rethink how legacy networks are retired, how value is recovered, and how sustainability can be embedded into the very fabric of telecom transformation.
For organisations looking to lead on climate action, procurement and operations teams have a critical role to play. In this blog, we look at practical strategies to tackle Scope 3 emissions and how informed choices across the value chain can deliver both environmental and commercial benefits.
Global copper supplies are tightening, but telcos don’t have to see it as a setback. In an article with IoT Insider, TXO’s Group CTO John Teasdale shares how operators can recover hidden value, cut waste, and accelerate the fibre transition.
In his recent Reader Forum contribution to RCR Wireless News, Tom Eaton, CEO of the Americas at TXO Group, highlighted how telcos are rethinking procurement strategies in a world defined by disruption.
As Australia’s telcos ramp up infrastructure investment and face mounting environmental pressure, landfill diversion has emerged as a clear and measurable sustainability win. This blog explores why the industry is shifting its focus to zero to landfill, and how TXO is helping leading operators accelerate that transition.
The Vodafone and Three UK merger isn’t just about scale. It’s a chance to build a smarter, leaner, and more sustainable network. TXO’s Group CTO John Teasdale shares with Capacity Media how rationalisation can cut duplication, boost coverage, and breathe new life into surplus kit.
As the world races ahead with digital innovation, millions remain unconnected. Bridging the digital divide isn’t just a moral imperative, it’s a strategic one. By embedding sustainability into telecom and tech infrastructure, we can drive both environmental progress and digital inclusion.
In Scandinavia, telecom operators are leading the charge in combining sustainability with operational efficiency through the circular economy. By embracing practices like asset resale, refurbishment, and smarter inventory management, they’re reducing costs while upgrading networks for the future. Discover how circular strategies are transforming telecom operations in this exciting new era.

Across rail networks, vast amounts of obsolete equipment and kilometres of copper cables lie unused, but they’re far from worthless. Through urban mining, these retired assets become a powerful resource, unlocking valuable metals like copper, gold, and palladium that are essential to modern technology. This approach not only helps rail operators to save CO2 but also creates new revenue streams that can fund innovation and network upgrades.
Sustainability and net zero are reshaping tech procurement, especially in the French market. Here we’ll share how to stay ahead by anticipating evolving expectations and building more resilient, responsible partnerships.
Sustainability is more than just an environmental concern for the telecom industry. It’s also a smart business strategy. TXO’s Group Operations Director, Julia Evans, discussed with Fierce Network the growing incentive for telcos to embrace the circular economy by recycling and reselling legacy equipment.
