My third article for Forbes talks about moving past awareness of climate change and doing something about it. I noted how buildings are one of the most significant contributors to greenhouse gas emissions, so we must address how new and existing buildings use energy. And this is especially urgent if we want to achieve the ambitious 2050 net-zero goal spearheaded by the UN Net Zero Coalition and ...
Solar installations at commercial and industrial buildings have soared in recent years, with businesses realizing that they’re smart investments. Part of the reason is that solar installations produce clean, locally generated energy — a must-have in a time of ambitious sustainability goals. But not all solar installations are alike. According to a 2021 study by Berkeley Lab, 98 ...
The drive is on to improve the sustainability performance of data centers with tools such as IIoT platforms, energy monitoring and management, and innovative cooling technologies. However efficient a data center becomes, the carbon footprint of the electricity itself will be the main factor in its environmental performance. The exact amount of electricity consumed in data centers around the ...
Critical facilities such as hospitals, police and fire stations, and even telecom sites and data centers, play vital roles in disaster response and recovery. This sector provides protection, communication, and emergency services essential to public safety and welfare. To meet the changing needs of society, this industry is evolving and so is its electrical infrastructure. I sat down with ...
Alexander Graham Bell (the telephone) and Thomas Edison (electricity) were two of the greatest groundbreaking pioneers in history. Imagine if the two were alive today to witness the evolution of their thinking. While the chances are pretty good that Bell would have no idea what a smartphone was, Edison’s electrical transmission lines are, conversely, still a mainstay today. Acknowledging ...
