The challenges we face are global — and we address them through industry-wide knowledge sharing and strategic action. SGA meetups, member gatherings and panels bring together industry experts, members, and key stakeholders to share best practices and align on priorities.
SGA meetups bring together experts from across the industry and beyond to exchange insights, share knowledge, and explore best practices in emission reduction, sustainability compliance, and effective sustainable communication.
To empower the entire industry to decarbonize and reduce compliance costs, we make recordings of our past meetups publicly available, supporting open access to knowledge and best practices.

Game performance optimization is usually driven by player experience and cost efficiency, but the same strategies can also deliver significant environmental benefits. In this talk, Torbjörn Söderman, Technical Director at GOAL will present the “4P Strategy” – Performance, Player Experience, Profit, and Power – and show how a combined focus makes optimization a true win-win.
Torbjörn will walk through three concrete examples:
SENTEC, their studio’s scalable networking engine, which dramatically reduces CPU demand per game server while improving latency tolerance and player experience.
Launcher strategy, which uses hardware detection to distribute high-end and low-end versions of the game, ensuring accessibility on modest devices without compromising visual fidelity for top-tier hardware.
GPU Throttling, a system that dynamically adjusts framerates based on temperature and load, reducing energy usage, heat, and noise while also lowering CO₂ emissions at scale.
Game Industry Experts Discuss Energy Efficiency and Player Experience
Ari Arnbjörnsson, Technical Developer Relations at Epic Games, Hauke Thießen, Technical Artist at DECK 13 Interactive GmbH and Jyrki Coertjens, Lead Technical Artist at Nitro Games will discuss Energy Efficiency and Player Experience.
Participants get an understanding, some guidelines and best practices on how they can optimize their games across all gaming platforms without compromising the quality of the player’s experience.
Extending the lifetime of players’ hardware, reducing their energy bills, extending battery life for your games on battery-powered devices, and making games available on more devices so more players can play it.
