Precision irrigation is a farming technique that delivers the right amount of water directly to the roots of crops when they need it. It uses technology like sensors, weather data, and automated systems to control where, when, and how much water is used. This method helps save water, reduce waste, and can improve crop yields…
Water-Smart Tech refers to tools, systems, and devices designed to use water efficiently and reduce waste. These technologies help manage how much water we use at home, in businesses, and in public spaces. The main goal is to conserve water resources while still meeting our daily needs.
Green data centres are facilities designed to store, manage and process digital data using methods that reduce their impact on the environment. They use energy-efficient equipment, renewable energy sources like solar or wind, and advanced cooling systems to lower electricity use and carbon emissions. The goal is to minimise waste and pollution while still providing…
Carbon capture technology refers to methods and systems used to trap carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from sources like power plants and factories before they enter the atmosphere. The captured CO2 is then either stored underground or reused in various industrial processes. This technology helps reduce the amount of greenhouse gases released, which can slow down…
Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) are small-scale devices or systems that generate or store electricity close to where it will be used, such as homes or businesses. These resources include solar panels, wind turbines, battery storage, and even electric vehicles. Unlike traditional power stations that send electricity over long distances, DERs can produce energy locally and…
Energy harvesting technology refers to methods and devices that capture small amounts of energy from everyday sources, such as sunlight, heat, movement, or radio waves, and convert it into usable electrical power. This technology is often used to power small electronic devices without the need for batteries or direct electrical connections. It enables more sustainable…
Smart Grid Analytics refers to the use of data analysis and digital technologies to monitor, manage and optimise electricity grids. By collecting data from sensors, meters and other devices, these analytics help utilities understand electricity usage patterns and system performance. This process enables faster responses to power outages, reduces energy waste and helps integrate renewable…
Industrial IoT integration is the process of connecting machines, sensors and other devices in factories or industrial sites to computer systems and networks. This allows real-time data to be collected, shared and analysed to improve efficiency, safety and decision-making. By integrating IoT technology, businesses can automate processes, monitor equipment remotely and respond faster to issues.
Smart fabric technology refers to textiles that have been enhanced with digital components or advanced materials, enabling them to sense, react or adapt to environmental conditions or the wearer’s needs. These fabrics can include embedded sensors, conductive threads or microelectronics to add new functions beyond traditional clothing or textiles. Smart fabrics are used in a…
Digital Twin Integration is the process of connecting a virtual model, or digital twin, with its physical counterpart so that data can flow between them. This connection allows real-time monitoring, analysis, and control of physical objects or systems using their digital representations. It helps organisations to predict issues, optimise performance, and make informed decisions based…
