Leveraging Industry 4.0 and 5.0 Technologies for Sustainable IT Infrastructure: Evaluating AI, Blockchain, and Eco-Design Strategies for Environmental and Social Impact
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study explores how Industry 4.0 and 5.0 technologies can be combined to createsustainable IT infrastructure through artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and eco-design strategies. The study examines how these emerging technologies contribute to environmental sustainability while maintaining operational efficiency and social responsibility. Through quantitative analysis of 250 organizations implementing these technologies, this research evaluates the environmental and social impacts of technology adoption. The findings reveal significant correlations between technology integration levels and sustainability outcomes, with AI implementation showing the strongest favorable association (p < 0.001, r = 0.742) withenvironmental performance indicators. Research contributes to understanding the synergistic effects of Industry 4.0/5.0 technologies in creating sustainable IT ecosystems and provides strategic insights for organizations transitioning toward sustainable digital transformation.
