Buildings continue to evolve rapidly as the requirements of businesses and people change. Responsive, resilient, comfortable, and safe buildings are the need of the hour. Often, residents and owners are concerned about operating costs due to the high expenses incurred during maintenance. Managing building operations using poor-quality technology...

Immunoglobulin therapies are life-saving medicines that have been in use for more than 60 years. They provide the patient with a variety of antibodies and are often used as a last line of defense in many severe inflammatory diseases. In some conditions, they are life-saving. However, immunoglobulin therapies are expensive. Despite this, global dem...

Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) integrates photovoltaics (PV) and building architecture. BIPVs serve as on-site power generators for buildings, resulting in energy costs saving and reducing the building's carbon footprint. Also, if the BIPV system interfaces with the power grid, the unused electricity may be exported to the utility for gri...

This study focuses on the highlights in the rainwater and stormwater harvesting market in Singapore. Singapore has a well-developed water industry, but insufficient natural water resources. Water sustainability and security are priorities for its socio-economic growth. Several international and local water companies are participants in this water i...

Low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs) are gaining traction globally for their extended coverage, low transmission rate, long battery life, and beneficial cost savings in operations, capabilities that are determinantal to enabling massive machine-to-machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) deployment for non-mission critical applications. Custo...

Water electrolysis using electrolyzers powered by renewable energy produces green hydrogen, considered the most sustainable hydrogen type. Conventional electrolyzers require high water purity for hydrogen production as the impurities and salt contents damage the electrode and other components of the electrolyzer cells. However, over 96.5% of natura...

This market insight focuses on the active integration of safety technology and chassis electrification in Indian vehicles. Furthermore, while the number of Electronic Control Units (ECUs) in cars is reducing, the capability of each is increasing. For instance, in case of an accident, integrated features such as Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) an...

In order to achieve the target of 20 per cent energy savings by 2020, the EU needs to augment its efforts on energy efficiency measures especially in the residential sector, which contributes to 27 per cent of total EU energy consumption. MicroCHP is the next generation solution with high efficiency, and is a replacement option for millions of boi...

According to the United Nations, global population is estimated to reach 8.1 billion in 2025 and the subsequent economic growth to cater to the demands of this growing population will push the stress levels of the water resources to the extreme limit. The US Intelligence Community Assessment of Global Water Security has also predicted that the glob...
