Technology Now

Do we have enough energy to go around? This week Technology Now investigates how organisations can use their energy more efficiently. We ask how important energy sovereignty should be, we consider the financial benefits of savvy energy use, and we explore potential ways in which waste heat could be repurposed. Karim Abou Zahab, a Principle Technologist with the Sustainable Transformation Team at HPE tells us more.
