AI-Friendly Sustainability: Empowering IT Environmental Waste Reduction and Repairability
Lenovo is rolling out new solutions that will help customers extend the life cycle of their devices with more sustainable and cost-efficient IT options. Through Lenovo Certified Refurbished, organizations can deploy refurbished PCs that cater to their different computing needs while maintaining a smaller IT carbon footprint. Only Lenovo and accredited partners will offer the Lenovo certification, guaranteeing industry-leading quality devices that businesses can depend on.
Lenovo is committed to implementing circular practices at every stage of the IT lifecycle, and as a leading global PC manufacturer, is uniquely qualified to help customers meet sustainability goals and embrace the benefits of circularity with confidence. Through the Lenovo 360 Circle community, channel partners are also aligned with collaborative actions to drive circular outcomes for customers and build a more sustainable future. Through Lenovo TruScale, customers can deploy services on a pay-as-you-go subscription basis, using only what they need and curbing waste.
Lenovo is also extending the company’s relationship with iFixit, giving IT Managers the power to quickly fix and repair devices – minimizing downtime and extending the life of hardware. The ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 and T16 Gen 3, with insights from the iFixit Solutions team, have been designed to be more repair-friendly, not only extending customer replaceable parts (CRU) to include the battery with a cable-free connector and a fully socketed DIMM design, as well as SSD and WWAN replacement, but also adding visual indicators for easier repairs. With support from the iFixit team, Lenovo created new repair guides including video procedures for all CRU parts as well as making those parts easier to order. This extends the product lifecycle, reduces electronic waste and offers cost-saving advantages for businesses and individuals. As a result of these improvements, ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 and T16 Gen 3 achieved a provisional iFixit repairability score of 9.3 out of 10.
