HP Rethinks Energy
Abstract:
Technology is also helping us be more efficient with the energy we use. Always connected devices deliver the right information to the right place at the right time, reducing waste and increasing productivity. An even greater opportunity lies in breakthrough nanotechnology. Networks of billions of nano-scale sensors can be embedded in buildings, agricultural fields and large-scale structures and connected to sustainable data centers to automatically provision energy resources. The potential outcome: electricity and heat matched seamlessly to demand; water and fertilizer optimized to sensitive measurements in the soil; maintenance performed on the Brooklyn Bridge exactly when needed.
