Episode 8 - George Danner, CEO, AI Expert, Best Selling Tech Author and MIT Mathematician joins us to discuss ESG - Better, Faster, Cheaper and GREENER??

August 15, 2021 • John Lindsey • Season 1 • Episode 8

Join us as we kick off our SPECIAL ESG SERIES focused on the different components and solutions for ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) compliance. In this first ESG episode we dive into ESG and Energy Transition and discuss how Digital Twins can be the centerpiece of the "E" part of the solution.

ESG and Energy Transition are two connected domains that hold substantial technical complexity. They essentially involve a retooling of the value chain in many ways, large and small. Examples include: green hydrogen bolt-ons, renewable power, decarbonizing a production network, and water (and other effluent) management to name a few.
