With significant advances in energy and communications technology, the world is moving towards more connected communities.
More options are now available in terms of energy generation, through renewable alternatives; online connections are more pervasive than ever, and network speeds, are faster than ever before. These significant improvements in availability and accessibility of both energy and connectivity mean that communities can now access energy, information and services around the clock.
Remote locations no longer need to struggle with the barrier of accessing energy sources, nor do they need to grapple with the lack of connectivity to the rest of the world – emerging technology is quickly seeking to close this gap.
People, objects, and things – online and offline, one to one, one to many, or many to many; are now connected using digital technology. We form part of communities that generate energy and that store, analyse, and manage data collected by sensors and mobile terminals through a growing and established network.
