According to Gartner, 50% of organisations will adopt sustainability-enabled monitoring by 2026, to manage energy consumption and carbon footprint metrics for their hybrid cloud environments. This is essential for organisations to meet sustainability requirements by 2030.
In addition, according to the Flexera 2025 State of the Cloud Report, over half (57%) of respondents indicated they either have, or plan to have, a defined sustainability initiative that includes cloud carbon footprint tracking in place within twelve months. With upcoming regulations like the EU's CSRD and the UK Sustainability Disclosure Requirements (SDR) on the horizon, FinOps teams are increasingly key to reducing both environmental impact and unnecessary cloud spend.
Mark Bradley, Senior Product Manager at Flexera says: “Our customers and partners across the globe are preparing now to meet not just government regulations, but also their own internal goals for reducing carbon emissions from their technology usage. Organisations should look for a partner who can bring not only their cloud and carbon data, but also their SaaS, licensing, and on-premises cost and usage data together in a single interface for one complete picture of their environment.”
The new partnership integrates Greenpixie’s cloud sustainability data (such as CO₂, water and electricity) with Flexera’s Cloud One offering, which includes cloud-based emissions data, and manufacturer-provided carbon data, delivering both cost and cloud-based emissions data in a single, familiar interface.
“Flexera is uniquely placed to embed Greenpixie sustainability data into the heart of cloud operations where it can supercharge FinOps and IT decarbonisation goals,” said John Ridd, CEO of Greenpixie. “With fine-grained CO2, electricity and water data, sustainability can become the town square of IT - where stakeholders can collaborate to deliver IT objectives in new innovative ways. The Greenpixie integration into Flexera One's Cloud Cost Optimisation solution is the digital embodiment of this town square, where sustainability can catalyse FinOps goals like never before.”
