The decarbonisation of energy provision, urban systems and industrial production is key to managing global greenhouse gas emissions and hence mitigating climatic change. It is, however, not clear whether current decarbonisation endeavours can meet the goal of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change and restrict the rise in global average temperatures to below 2 °C.
Digital technologies such as big data, machine learning and the Internet of Things are receiving more and more attention as they can aid the decarbonisation process while requiring limited investments. The orchestration of these novel technologies, so-called cyber-physical systems (CPS), provides further, synergetic effects that increase efficiency of energy provision and industrial production thereby optimising economic feasibility and environmental impact. Introducing artificial intelligence (AI) to CPS will take their impact on energy provision, industrial production, transport management and urban organisation to the next level.
This webinar, part of the CREATE webinar series, will discuss how intelligent digital technologies can assist the transition of economies to Net Zero and assess their potential in mitigating climate change. The panellists are experts from industry and academia who have contributed to the book Intelligent Decarbonisation, a collaboration of Springer Nature and Cambridge CARES.
