We talk IoT: Optimising Power Efficiency with IoT - Episode 57

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. #iot #power #data #sustainability #wetalkiot   Summary of this week's episode: 02:31 Understanding Power Supply and CO2 Emissions 03:38 The Role of IoT in Power Management 06:16 Data Collection for Energy Efficiency 07:56 Real-World Use Cases and Examples 13:48 Challenges and Solutions in IoT Integration 17:51 Future Trends and Regulations Show notes: Andy Richardson: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andy-richardson-066a8911/ About Avnet Silica: This podcast is brought to you by Avnet Silica—the Engineers of Evolution.
