One thing is evident in our fight for sustainable change, the path forward is not a single, clear trajectory; it is a host of possibilities, strategies, opinions and transitions. The vision of a planet thriving on cleaner, smarter infrastructure faces its share of trials, as varied as the global players charting their course, says Thomas Kiessling from Siemens Smart Infrastructure
Taking the old and making it new is a challenge that engineers continue to grapple with, especially when trying to transform what we already have into something more sustainable. Building sustainable infrastructure is one thing, but taking buildings, power grids and transport systems constructed for longevity, and trying to make them sustainable, is entirely different, says Thomas Kiessling from Siemens Smart Infrastructure
