挑战
RMP 是一家以前热衷于“绿色环保”的公司,2021 年,该公司决定成为积极主动的市场领导者。他们意识到可持续发展和关爱地球未来的重要性。他们旅程的第一步是了解他们的碳足迹,他们发现 2021 年他们的碳足迹为 124 吨二氧化碳当量,即每人 2.3 吨。他们希望减少对地球的影响,并激励其他人加入他们的旅程。然而,他们在减少碳排放和提高运营可持续性方面面临挑战。
关于客户
RMP 是一家最近开始致力于可持续发展并减少对地球影响的公司。2021 年,他们正式认识到可持续发展和关爱地球未来的重要性。他们从“绿色环保”的狂热爱好者变成了积极主动的市场领导者。他们制定了雄心勃勃的目标,即每年减少 10% 的碳排放量,到 2024 年实现碳负排放。他们还在整个企业范围内实施了各种举措,以减少碳排放。他们有内部“可持续发展倡导者”,每月开会一次,讨论并推动 RMP 的可持续变革。
解决方案
RMP 采取了多项措施来减少碳排放,使其运营更加可持续。他们购买了永久性生物炭碳去除剂,以消除 2021 年排放量的 100%,从而永久消除了他们排放到大气中的碳。他们还将商品供应商换成了“I Dress Myself”,这是一家可持续供应商,使用有机棉、水性油墨、无塑料刺绣和无塑料包装。他们将分发给大学的宣传册的大小从 200 多页减少到约 20 页,从而减少了 76% 的纸张使用量。他们还举办了无肉工作活动,以鼓励更可持续的饮食。

IoT based Energy Quality Availability Monitoring Solution
There were several challenges faced:Since this data would be in the public domain, accuracy and authenticity of this data were of paramount importance. It should be able to withstand scrutiny.It is challenging to build an appliance that can withstand a wide range of voltage fluctuations from as low at 90v to as high as 320v. Since the device would be installed in remote locations, its resilience was of paramount importance.The device would have to deal with poor network coverage and have the ability to store and re-transmit data if networks were not available, which is often the case in rural India. The device could store up to 30 days of data.The platform that deals with the data should be readily available and highly reliable and never lose a packet of data.

Product Development for Power Line Communication (PLC/BPL) Systems
The client wanted to develop a product that can acquire data from their meter units installed at the consumer's premises. A system capable of acquiring, transferring and archiving the data had to be in place, replacing the existing traditional method which was error prone and expensive to operate. The system needed to be integrated with the existing Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system for increasing the operational efficiency.

New Sun Road Connects Uganda to Clean and Reliable Energy
New Sun Road is a registered California Benefit Corporation committed to implementing solutions to climate change and global energy poverty. This group of talented engineers is partnering with Ugandan green energy startup GRS Commodities to deliver reliable and clean power to the Ssese Islands in Lake Victoria, Uganda. The goal of the pilot system is to provide affordable and reliable solar powered electricity to businesses on Kitobo Island.Although no small feat, deploying the solar power grids is likely the simplest part of the solution. Solar was the obvious choice for the power source because it is economical and relatively simple to deploy.The primary difficulty lies in managing the energy grid and ensuring proper maintenance without having to be on-site at every location. The capability to remotely monitor the grid will enable New Sun Road to expand their service across the Ssese Islands in a more efficient manner since each grid can be monitored from one central location. But, in remote areas, where communication options are limited, how do you remotely monitor and manage a smart solar power grid?Without a local ISP, this can be a complex challenge, so the team decided to enable remote connectivity over the global cellular network.In addition to communication challenges, another major difficulty New Sun Road had to overcome was finding a device capable of withstanding the high temperatures within their network hubs. The device would be residing within a NEMA enclosure in direct sunlight, so the capability to function under extremely high temperatures was a must.
