Edge computing refers to IT resources, placed close to the end user or data source, which present unique challenges compared to traditional data centres, as they are often remote and without local IT staff support. This means they require a different strategy to that of a conventional data centre, as their lifecycle is longer and […]
Hospitals rely on continuous energy supply and cannot afford power failing within the infrastructure. This is why microgrid systems are globally being instituted within the healthcare industry to provide large amounts of continuous, clean and affordable power. Microgrid solutions intelligently coordinate a variety of onsite, distributed energy generation assets to optimise power stability and costs. […]
One of the drawbacks to maintenance in ICT systems in South Africa is the distance involved in providing energy, information and communication to a large country with diverse urban and rural needs. Added to this is the necessity of skilled operators being available to meet these needs timeously, before emergencies develop. Augmented reality (AR) may […]

Schneider Electric has announced two additional models in its TeSys GV3 range thermal-magnetic motor circuit breakers, the TeSys GV3P73 and GV3P80. The two models provide 73 and 80 A current ratings in a 55 mm width, which is 35% smaller than previously available products of this rating. Both products are tested IE3 and IE4 class […]
One of the key issues in South Africa is aging facilities that are not equipped with the right infrastructure to support energy and business efficiency. Some can barely keep up with their backlog of maintenance, let alone comply with new stringent sustainability regulations. IoT technology helps these facilities keep legacy systems, while identifying new opportunities […]
