The Future Of Energy Storage Systems

The continued focus on renewable energy has led researchers to find new and improved long-term energy storage systems. While batteries made from lithium and other minerals have proven useful for energy farms, they are not sustainable, especially on a global scale.

Fortunately, with the continuous investment in research and development, there are potential solutions. These include commercial-scale ‘sand batteries’ from Finland and Switzerland’s 20 million kWh ‘water battery’, which is now operational after 14 years of development.

How Artificial Intelligence Is Changing The Construction Industry

Artificial Intelligence is expected to become the next technological frontier, according to most of the current studies and surveys across the world. Many of these investigations, and even experts, have gone so far as to claim that AI has not yet reached its maximum potential in the construction industry. They believe that by employing more Artificial Intelligence solutions, the construction sector may discover new ways to improve productivity. This would likely bring about an increase in resources dedicated to developing capabilities and AI playing a significant role in the construction process.
