Smart Energy
Smart Energy & Electric Vehicles
The Digital Age powered by the Cloud has led to the evolution of Intelligent Assets which impact all Industry segments including Education, Retail, Health, Finance – intersect with Smart Spaces (Cities, Buildings, Campuses, Places).
These Intelligent Assets are powered by fast-evolving technology including IoT, Edge, Edge AI, Digital Twins, 5G and in many instances, are overlapping into Intelligent Environments. However, all of these Intelligent Assets & Environments have one thing in common – Smart Energy. With the rapid commitment in the 21st century & global consensus to recognize and act for Climate Change & Sustainability on Planet Earth, Smart Energy has taken a bold new meaning. For example, the US administration’s recent commitment to act on Climate Change & reduce Carbon footprint specifically calls for new investments in Energy Efficient Commercial Real Estate, Campuses, Smart Buildings.
To design, deploy and manage all of that, it is important to understand the revolution taking place in the Energy Ecosystem which impacts both Owner Operators (essentially those entities which pay for, bring equipment & solutions into their properties) as well as Facility Managers/Building Management providers. This implies that Smart Spaces intersects substantially with Smart Energy.

This implies that Smart Spaces intersects substantially with Smart Energy.
Smart Energy is increasingly characterized by Renewable Energy (solar, wind, geo-thermal, hydro) which is at cross roads with Fossil Fuel (coal, crude oil, natural gas) source. Renewable Energy substantially reduces the planet’s carbon footprint & therefore, Digital Transformation is impacting the energy industry creating a new phenomenon called Smart Energy. Importantly, since Renewables have to co-exist with Fossil fuels for the foreseeable future, Smart Energy is also about upgrading the Energy Grid to operate with the new realities of mixed energy sources, connected Intelligent Assets.
In many cases, Energy Grids are undergoing transformation from being uni-directional grids (where one party is the generator, the others are consumers), to one where the Grid is bi-directional. In the Energy Industry, the Distributed Energy Resource (DER) is a local power distribution entity which draws from a central utility and re-distributes into a micro-grid in the region. However, due to recent legislation, states like California are now pushing every new home to have a solar power generation source which can not only store/generate electricity, but will also be equipped to “give back” to the Energy Grid.
Smart Energy therefore is not just about the Generators, Operators, Providers, but also the market mechanics of how the Energy Market operates through wholesalers and retail distribution level. Smart Energy therefore is inclusive of the bi-directional bottoms up aggregation, load shifting and shedding which all needs to be planned in real-time across renewables and fossil fuels. Eventually, Smart Energy solutions will enable the grid to operate interactively, allowing all sides to take advantage of real-time grid management, intelligent load management based on efficiency, consumption taking advantage of all energy incentives today & tomorrow, levering the latest technology and digital transformation.
