Data centres consume huge amounts of energy – and generate plenty of heat in the process. In Sweden, thousands of households are already heated with server heat. Could this be a potential source of clean energy?
It sounds too good to be true. But more and more venues and companies are finding ways to turn body heat into usable energy.
What if the heat from, say, server farms or subway tunnels can be used to warm homes? Waste heat recovery technologies seek to close the energy loop.
Fancy swimming in an eco-friendly pool, heated using the waste energy used to produce your favourite animated movie?
Solar power, heat pumps and waste heat - renewable energies are readily available. The former Pfaff factory site is being used to test what the climate-neutral neighbourhood of the future will look like.
Researchers want to use the "SOL-AI" AI system to produce more efficient materials for photovoltaic systems. It's trained on a huge data set and can generate new materials based on the required properties.
When the wind blows and the sun shines, there is plenty of cheap, green energy. Tibber passes this on to customers with a dynamic electricity tariff.
Which roles can digital technologies play in the transformation of our energy system towards using 100 percent renewable energy? In the latest "Energy Transition – The Future is Networked" Greenbook, RESET.org has researched solutions and interviewed experts. Here are the results.
Major transformations are needed to achieve the climate targets in the building sector. Here we provide an overview of the role digital technologies play in the industry.
