Technically, no matter what the claims from certain manufacturers, current semi-autonomous vehicles require that a driver keep their hands on the wheel at all times. Even most experimental vehicles for instance, the ill-fated Uber-ized Volvo that was involved in a fatality in Phoenix are supposed to have an “emergency driver” who is supposed to remain alert at all times just in case of computer failure.
That said, our inclement weather not so apparent as I write this on a record-setting warm March 11 does provide us with an opportunity to become a “global hub” of autonomous research. Raed Kadri, head of Ontario’s Autonomous Vehicle Innovation Network, claims that, with “our existing strengths in automotive and IT, coupled with our strong entrepreneurial cluster and our innovative startups,” we have everything necessary to remain leaders in the autonomous and mobility sectors. In other words, if we play our cards right, Ontario’s frozen winters and our abund

The Internet of Things (IoT) keeps popping up on many a CIO’s radar. Yet, many struggle with how to intelligently harness promising IoT technologies and platforms it can be an elusive endeavor. Is this you?
You are not alone. A global SAP survey of 3,000 corporate executives conducted this year found that 3 percent of the respondents said their firms had completed company wide digital transformation projects, which can be interpreted as IoT deployments of one kind or another. The flip side is that the overwhelming majority (97 percent) have not done so. Nonetheless, more than half (55 percent) of the respondents said their
PG&E was one of the first utilities to appreciate the need for a sophisticated A.I.-enabled bidding technology to optimize its energy storage assets, said Seyed Madaeni, chief digital officer of Fluence. This technology-agnostic software provides PG&E with a single tool that can optimize not only the Moss Landing project, but potentially entire portfolios of generation and storage resources to enhance affordability of resources. We are excited to work with PG&E to use advanced technology to improve the efficiency and reliability of the CAISO market and lower costs for California consumers.
The Fluence Digital team - formerly AMS, which was acquired by Fluence in 2020 - is the leading developer of A.I.-enabled optimized bidding software for grid-scale storage and generation assets. The Trading Platform, which can be used to optimize a variety of energy resources in the CAISO market and in the Australian National Electricity Market (NEM), can increase revenue and operational effi
