Sustainability goes beyond smart buildings and efficient transportationit's about addressing climate change and other environmental challenges. Smart cities need energy sources that are both low in carbon emissions and highly efficient. This includes integrating various energy forms into a unified system for improved quality of life.
Manjit Singh, Executive Director of Cables at KEC International Limited, says, "Using advanced technology to improve residents, quality of life and promote sustainability relies on carbon-efficient energy sources and a network of high-quality, reliable cables for seamless energy and data transmission to move towards smart cities.
Smart cities and sustainable cables can lead us to a future where we live in harmony with our planet, bringing prosperity to future generations. Now is the time to act with determination and purpose to shape a bright future with the advanced cable network.
Emerging technologies in cables and wires
Advanced cables are crucial for transitioning cities to renewable energy sources, ensuring optimal energy use, minimising waste, and supporting responsible consumption. They integrate ICT with urban systems, aligning with smart cities' core principles. Digitalisation has impacted the role of cables, with emerging technologies like blockchain, AI, 5G, and edge computing needing robust infrastructure. Advanced cables support ambitious projects like autonomous vehicle infrastructure and smart traffic sensors, shares Bhushan Sawhney, Executive President and Chief Business Officer of Cables at Polycab India.
