With rising energy costs and a greater push toward sustainability, industries are increasingly turning to IoT solutions to optimise energy consumption and reduce waste. IoT is not only about smart devices but also about gathering data to make smarter decisions that drive both efficiency and sustainability.
We explore the impact of IoT on energy efficiency and sustainability with Andy Richardson, VP of business development at Salom Europe. And delve into how data collected through IoT-enabled power supplies can lead to significant CO2 emissions savings, equivalent to saving thousands of trees. Our discussion highlights the necessity of understanding power usage profiles for accurate emissions reporting and legislation compliance and the broader implications for businesses aiming to achieve net-zero emissions by 2030. Andy shares insight into Salom's strategies and how companies can leverage IoT to drive new business models and make informed decisions.
