- June 2022 - Vodafone initiated the United Kingdom's first live 'wind- and solar-powered mobile phone mast in Pembrokeshire, Wales. By eliminating the requirement for a link to the national energy grid, the specifically constructed mast offered connectivity to "not-spots" in the United kingdom's most remote and inhospitable places, aiding the industry's goal of 95% UK landmass coverage by 2025.
- May 2022 - BT Group PLC signed a five-year contract with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to speed up its digital transformation process.
