Transforming Manufacturing: How AI Can Drive Significant Emission Reductions
Imagine running a manufacturing plant and knowing that every decision, every task scheduled has the potential to make a positive impact on climate change. Industries, responsible for 23% of the U.S.’s greenhouse gas emissions (EPA, 2022), are at a critical juncture. While renewable energy offers hope, its unpredictable availability often forces reliance on fossil fuels, leaving vast opportunities for emission reduction untapped.
Let’s break it down. A typical plant consuming 500 MWh of energy daily operates with a mix of renewables and fossil fuels. On high renewable days (60% renewable, 40% fossil), emissions average 204 tons of CO₂. On low renewable days (20% renewable, 80% fossil), they spike to 408 tons. Randomly scheduling tasks results in an average saving of 306 tons of CO₂ emissions daily.
How Renewable Energy Can Alleviate Energy Poverty
In a world where electricity is a necessity for modern living, more than a billion people still lack access to reliable power. This energy poverty is a significant barrier to economic development and improved living conditions. However, there is hope on the horizon: renewable energy.
