    Generative AI has moved from an experimental tool to a core enterprise engine, unlocking business value across the entire IT stack. Yet every new parameter-rich model brings a heavy sustainability price tag: soaring electricity draw, intensified cooling loads, and water usage that stretches local resources. The very clouds that promise digital transformation risk casting a shadow over global net-zero goals. In this Viewpoint, Everest Group unpacks the contradiction. We trace how exponential AI workloads are stress-testing hyperscalers’ original green growth pledges, such as 100 percent renewable energy, water-positive campuses, circular hardware, placing these commitments at a pivotal phase of execution and accountability. Beyond this, this Viewpoint focuses on future opportunities. Hyperscalers, based on their scale and influence, hold immense power to reset ambitions and raise the bar for sustainable growth. We examine how hyperscalers are already investing in next-generation technologies that can improve energy and resource efficiency, as well as how they can do more in the future. Ultimately, this Viewpoint offers a forward-thinking playbook for technology providers and enterprises navigating the intersection of AI and sustainability. By turning intent into impact, hyperscalers, their ecosystems, and enterprises can work together to drive responsible innovation that not only meets the moment but defines the next era of cloud leadership.

    Impact sourcing steers formal employment toward those historically left on the sidelines, melding social equity with enterprise performance. Yet this model’s success depends massively on a steady supply of job-ready talent. Consequently, training institutions – from government academies and CSR cohorts to vocational colleges and digital learning platforms – have shifted from the margins to becoming central to the ecosystem, translating inclusive intent into market-validated capabilities.  Across this ecosystem, demand for adaptive skills is sparking inventive pedagogy. Programs now blend online scalability with in-person mentorship, compress months of theory into high-intensity bootcamps, and embed continuous upskilling into earn-and-learn pathways, ensuring income does not pause while skills evolve. Meanwhile, widespread connectivity, cross-sector partnerships, and analytics that tether training inputs to workplace outcomes are turning previously distant communities into reliable talent reservoirs.  The Viewpoint traces this terrain – exploring institution archetypes, demand drivers, delivery logics, curriculum strategies, inclusion mechanisms, and the enabling technologies and partnerships that bind them together. It brings together high-level analysis and practical frameworks to help stakeholders navigate complexity and unlock value across the impact sourcing landscape.

    This report examines technology advances enabling solid waste valorization, where waste streams, such as plastics, biomass, and municipal residues, are converted into valuable outputs (fuels, monomers, and specialty chemicals). As regulatory pressure increases and sustainability becomes core to industrial strategy, solid waste-to-chemical technologies offer a path to decarbonize material production, recover resources, and reduce landfill use. The report evaluates four key technology categories – chemical, biochemical, thermochemical, and physiochemical – covering solvent purification, depolymerization, fermentation, gasification, pyrolysis, and hydrothermal liquefaction methods. It assesses their readiness, operating parameters, industry-specific applications, and impact potential. Through deep diving into case studies, patent trends, and innovation hotspots, the report offers guidance on commercialization pathways, investment patterns, and ecosystem shifts. Stakeholders across chemicals, energy, automotive, and waste management can use this analysis to implement scalable circular strategies and reduce reliance on fossil-based inputs. Scope Geography: global Industry: chemical, packaging, energy, agriculture, automotive, and construction Application: solid waste-to-chemical processes, including fuel generation, monomer recovery, fertilizer production, and high-purity material recycling Contents In this report, we examine: Key solid waste valorization pathways: chemical, biochemical, thermochemical, and physiochemical Technology maturity and impact of over 18 processes, including pyrolysis, gasification, enzymatic depolymerization, and HTL Adoption trends across packaging, energy, agriculture, and automotive sectors Regional investment analysis, policy frameworks, and commercial pilots Comparative efficiency analysis and future roadmap for modular, distributed deployment Strategic action points for R&D, infrastructure, regulation, and public-private partnerships
