With so much clean energy commentary focused on the shimmering vision of wholly renewable grids serving lithium-ion electric vehicles complemented by hydrogen powered trucks and trains, other critical transition technologies can be overlooked.
Leading tech doesn’t have to be applied to shiny new solutions, but can be used to optimise legacy energy systems. Sabien Technology (AIM:SNT) for example is using cutting-edge machine learning and artificial intelligence to analyse and improve the efficiency of existing heating, cooling and transportation systems.
Sabien’s cloud-connected carbon management service is used in the boiler rooms of hundreds of public and private sector buildings across the UK to manage carbon emissions, reduce operating spend, and achieve regulatory targets. The company also optimises air conditioning units in buildings, passenger vehicles and commercial freight, and analyses refrigerant leakage patterns. Unglamorous perhaps: but Sabien calculates energy-efficient, climate-friendly cooling could prevent as much as 460 billion tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions over the next four decades.
Another relatively unsung but critical green innovation, waste to energy technology, offers an elegant way of making use of the vast amounts of rubbish we generate, allowing a wide range of refuse to be processed for energy that can feed back into the grid.
