The FTTH Council Europe has been monitoring annually the evolution of full-fibre deployment throughout Europe since 2012. This essential work has been driven by the Market Intelligence Committee which publishes our flagship report FTTH/B Market Panorama, complete with FTTH Forecasts for Europe. The survey is commissioned through an external partner and the role of the Committee is to complete and refine these data based on the comprehensive input coming from the network of experts from our 150 members active in all European countries.

FTTH members have access to a more detailed version of the report with granular information regarding the individual FTTH markets in each of the 39 countries surveyed.

Two more reports have been produced under initiative of the Market Intelligence Committee, and launched during the last FTTH Virtual Conference 2021: the latest figures of the FTTH Forecasts for 2021 and 2026 and an overview of fibre deployments in rural areas.

The Market Intelligence Committee is also involved in other studies such as Copper Switch Off, Best Practices in Fibre advertising and the Socio Economic Impact of FTTH.

COP29 in Baku marks a major milestone for the FTTH Council as we proudly endorsed the Green Digital Action Declaration! On Digitalization Day (November 16), our Sustainability Committee Chair, Jeroen Kanselaar, joined global leaders in two pivotal sessions to formally support this critical commitment toward a sustainable, digitally empowered future.

At the Green Digital Action Roundtable, Mr. Kanselaar explored the integration of digital innovation in climate strategies, focusing on reducing the environmental impact of digitalization and building partnerships to advance sustainable transformation. He also showcased the FTTH Eco Platform, a key sustainability initiative of the European fibre industry.

In the ICT Sector Greenhouse Gas Emissions session, the focus was shifted to the ICT sector’s commitment to reducing GHG emissions by 45% by 2030 (from 2020 levels), best practices in energy efficiency, and the need for robust climate transition plans.. 

Thanks to the organisers! Keep following us to our commitment in advancing a sustainable, digitally empowered future.

Help us create a brighter future!
