How cities of the future can become more sustainable and stress-free through technology

How do the various pillars of the energy transition interact and what role do municipal utilities play in the decarbonization of the heating infrastructure?

It is not only the heat output requirement in existing district heating networks that can be better predicted using the digital twin and thus the power feed-in can be controlled more precisely. The new planning and dimensioning of future network infrastructures can also be effectively supported with the help of digital twin technology.

Keeping products and resources alive for as long as possible and returning them to the cycle at the end of life: What contribution can the digital twin make?

We consume too many resources. Within a year, our planet will no longer be able to sustainably replenish them.

On the msg city walk, experts explain how digitalization can make people's lives easier. This time, the question is how Berlin's most annoying roundabout could become more efficient.

What role does the digital twin play in achieving sustainability goals? And what hurdles are there when using the digital twin?

Today, ESG is far more than just complying with requirements. Its implementation has long been of strategic relevance. Those who ignore this, risk economic decline. Can the cloud be a key lever here? Or does the path to a sustainable company inevitably lead into the cloud? Dr. Lothar Essig and Michael Wilk address these and other questions in this viewpoint interview.
