In this blog post, I will explain the link between municipal waste, critical infrastructures and the role of digitalisation. Municipal waste disposal is classified as critical infrastructure, so many waste disposal firms and waste treatment facility operators are required to make investments to guarantee they are able to deliver the service they supply from 2024. This means that provisions must be made to ensure that waste is always disposed of and recycled or reused – which also includes the generation of energy through waste incineration – even in exceptional situations. This opens up new opportunities for us as an IT service provider to be part of projects and drive digitalisation forward.

There are major changes taking place in the energy sector, marked by technology and the pursuit of sustainability. In this dynamic space, predictive maintenance plays a key role in power generation. But what opportunities does this innovative approach offer in terms of maintenance strategies and planning in energy generation and what risks do you need to consider? I will be answering these two questions in the following blog post.

Digitalisation, mobility, sustainability and decarbonisation are all topics that are really important to both local authorities and municipal utilities. In this blog post, you can find out to how a virtual power plant can be part of the solution and where adesso can support local authorities and municipal utilities in addressing these issues.

Hydrogen has become a critical player in the energy sector over recent years. It is seen as the key to achieving the climate goals with its potential in terms of decarbonisation and energy conversion. In this blog post, we take a closer look at the forecasts for hydrogen as well as the associated challenges and explore how adesso can support efforts in this area.

The renewable energy industry is booming, with wind turbines taking on a central role in driving this growth. While the wind energy sector continues to grow, approval procedures are becoming increasingly complex and time-consuming. This is where augmented reality (AR) comes into play. By integrating AR into the wind turbine construction process, approval procedures can be sped up and digitalised. I will show how this works in my blog post.

As we have all seen, digitalisation has made inroads across all sectors in recent years, including in the waste management industry. The rollout of digital technologies and solutions represents a great opportunity to make more efficient use of resources, improve process transparency and achieve greater sustainability in waste management. Despite this, companies and public authorities face a number of challenges. I will explain what these are and how companies can overcome them in my blog post.

As part of the VideKIS research project, adesso is developing a virtual power plant comprised of decentralised renewable energy plants that uses an optimisation model to generate decisions regarding the sale of power for these plants. This blog post will use an example to present a process model for creating an optimisation model.

The growing number of heat pumps, photovoltaic systems and wallboxes for EVs that are installed presents energy suppliers and grid operators with the challenge of how to handle the deluge of requests for grid connections and extensions. In this blog post, I will show you how we can help our customers meet this challenge.

Geoinformation systems play an important role in the energy sector. Distribution grid operators in particular use them for infrastructure planning, for power connections and for generating digital power grid models. These ‘digital twins’ collect geographical and technical data to improve the efficiency and resilience of the grid and optimise utilisation rates. I will explain how energy suppliers can become more efficient in my blog post.
