management to enable predictive maintenance , consumer payment and – increasingly important – the growing electric vehicle charging , which will generate a lot of load in electricity networks which creates the need balance electricity supply and consumption along the feeder lines of electricity distribution networks .”
For Erler , these are just a few examples . Each industry has an environmental footprint , but digital transformation can lead to a significant reduction of this .
Renewable energy and Ericsson ’ s net-zero commitment As the US and Europe edge towards the winter months , property managers with portfolios that lack energy efficiency are growing increasingly concerned about what the coming months will bring .
“ With 75 % of buildings across Europe not being energy efficient , consumers are already scaling back when it comes to setting their thermostat temperatures and monitoring their electricity usage in preparation for colder temperatures ,” says Erler . “ The proper next steps for these regions would be to adopt connectivity , deploy building energy management solutions , and invest in renewable energy , such as solar panels , wind farms and green hydrogen solutions to mitigate what could potentially be devastating winters in the coming years .”
Ericsson sees great importance in raising renewable and energy efficient targets , as well as putting significant resources behind achieving them .
“ Through predominately automated processes , we give enterprise customers across all industries the capability to optimise processes for both efficiency and sustainability . Deploying technology that is scalable and predictive is paramount ,” says Erler . “ From an Ericsson internal perspective , we pride ourselves on our commitment to achieve Net Zero carbon emissions by 2030 . The more that renewable energy is deployed and the more we deploy connectivity-driven solutions that improve energy efficiency , the closer we will come to achieving that goal . Limiting the risk of triggering climatic tipping points within the ecosystem
