E-governance uses information and communication technology (ICT) to deliver administrative services through enhanced technology in this service chain, thus increasing the efficiency of their services, which is guided by an aim for complete transparency that requires accurate information. However, digitalization is responsible for environmental problems such as carbon emissions produced by data centres, digital infrastructure, and devices. The paper emphasizes the importance of vision-oriented leadership in promoting sustainability through processes of strategic thinking, collaboration and innovation. The Guide presents a series of critical strategies, including energy-efficient data centres, virtualization and cloud computing, sustainable procurement, and citizen engagement to build green practices. Innovative technologies such as AI, IoT, and blockchain are labelled enablers for optimizing energy consumption and increasing transparency.
