Implementation of Industry 4.0 in the Energy Sector

Abstract

This research study intends to explore various challenges that humans have encountered as well as any that may arise in the near future. Poor sanitation facility is one of the main causes of malnutrition and it leads to a number of diseases, which also indirectly impacts other sectors. Excessive use of resources that are not renewable is another considerable issue. There is a lot of energy resource wastage; for example, streetlights in cities and on highways are often left ON during the day, this may cause energy wastage. Also, it is already known fact that the non-renewable energy resources are very limited. Therefore, an alternative energy source such as renewable energy like wind, solar power, and others are required. In future there might be a rise in the electricity consumption, therefore some innovative ways should be developed to fulfill the requirements. Through innovative technologies, energy can be efficiently utilized. IIoT aims to automate system-based monitoring and control of devices. Integrating the use of renewable energy and leveraging technology in the sanitation sector will promote social development.
