Everything. In fact, technical design of energy infrastructure used to be a tone-deaf exercise till a niche market emerged – where the engineers know how to talk balance sheets, and the finance team recommends smarter machines and IoT infrastructure for long term planning. The story isn’t very different for socially and economically sensitive project contexts, […]
If an island wanted to transition to a 100% green energy consumption, how would one design the power infrastructure to meet such goals? This study about the US Virgin Islands was conducted with this Utopian objective, including research tasks such as estimating future energy demand and E-mobility scenario analysis.
Data is grossly limited in communities in dire need of support. In the absence of reliable information (or a budget to conduct data collection extensively), what to energy planners rely on to back their ideas? Spatial mapping to create infrastructure visuals is a remarkable method. If projects need to be planned for energy poor societies […]
