Software based electricity grid stability
The software based solutions that will make our electricity grids fit for purpose for the coming decades are a massive investment opportunity, that will also enable countries to have a realistic chance of hitting their decarbonisation and net zero targets.
Hardware based electricity grid stability
What supporting investments will we need to make to allow the electricity grid to run with a higher percentage of renewables. Without them our green electricity targets will not be met.
Air pollution and dementia
As the World population life expectancy increases, more of us are likely to succumb to 'old age' conditions like dementia. There are a number of factors thought to play a part. Is air pollution one of them?
Precision agriculture, producing more with less?
