Smart Building Technology: Maintaining the Balance Between Energy & Data
The power efficiencies we expect from microchips according to Moore’s law are decreasing, leading to growing power demand from computing technology. However, we are gaining energy efficiency from smart technology in buildings, cities, and elsewhere. That smart-tech generates massive amounts of data, which then demands huge amounts of power. We can and we must build […]

That has become the reality for one foundation in Italy, with […]
DeepMind and National Grid Announce Potential Partnership
An electricity grid has often been equated to a central nervous system, sending signals across its extensive network to bring its body of connections to life. Like a central nervous system the power grid needs a brain to turn intention into action, one that can learn and anticipate in order to develop efficiency and functionality. […]
