The role of artificial intelligence in green technology
Currently, the adoption of green technology solutions is becoming an important trend in sectors such as manufacturing, construction, energy and environment. This concept refers to technologies, devices and processes capable of optimizing resource utilization and minimizing environmental impact, including artificial intelligence (AI). Learn more about the role of AI in the green economy below.
1. What is Green Technology?
1.1. Concept
Green technology is a concept that refers to technologies, products and processes that have a low negative impact on the environment, in order to support the development of a green economy, including sustainable economic activities, ensuring resources are used efficiently and minimizing negative impacts on the environment. To achieve this goal, green economy enterprises need to adopt and develop environmentally friendly products and services, while creating value for the economy and society.
1.2. The role of the green technology model
Green technology plays an important role in solving environmental problems and protecting natural resources. These technologies are designed and developed to minimize negative impacts on the environment, while creating economically efficient products and services.
One of the best examples of the green model is renewable energy such as wind power, solar power, hydroelectric power, or using biofuels to produce energy. These technologies not only help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but also create a clean and sustainable source of energy.
In the field of waste production and treatment, the green technology model also plays an important role. The use of technologically advanced equipment and processes can minimize the amount of waste generated, enhance recycling and reuse efficiency, and minimize negative impacts on the environment.
2. How can AI create a green economy?
Using AI in a variety of sectors and economic situations will help manage the impacts of the environment and climate change more effectively, improving the ability to forecast and respond to weather and natural disasters. PwC UK conducted research on modelling the economic impact of AI applications in four sectors: agriculture, water, energy and transport. According to the study, using AI for environmental applications could contribute up to $5.2 trillion to the global economy by 2030, a 4.4% increase over business-as-usual.
The use of AI leverage will also result in a 4% reduction in worldwide greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030, equivalent to the annual emissions of three countries, Australia, Canada, and Japan combined. At the same time, the use of AI can improve productivity and create 38.2 million new jobs across the global economy, including providing more high-skill occupations as part of this transition. From there, we can clearly see the positive influence of AI in creating a green and sustainable economy.
A good example of applying artificial intelligence to the green economy is Huawei’s “Farm to Fork” strategy, in collaboration with the European Union. This strategy is also at the heart of the European Green Deal, which aims to accelerate the transition of the food system to a sustainable model, ensuring no negative impacts on the environment, mitigating climate change, maintaining biodiversity, ensuring food security, etc nutrition and public health, together with the European Union’s ability to provide food and generate balanced economic profits, encourage fair trade and competition in the European Union’s supply sector.
To apply this strategy, Huawei has used artificial intelligence in a variety of applications, including “Connected Cow” technology, an AI-connected technology, to help farmers optimize milk yields and save costs, monitor yields to reduce operating costs and improve productivity, etc using a 5G base station to provide network connectivity for remote farms and rural areas, which improves smart farming and soil monitoring to avoid degradation over time. With its continued commitment to invest in research and development, the European Union hopes to contribute to the promotion of energy-efficient, environmentally friendly and resource-efficient industries
3.AI will give “tipping points” for green technology
The third highlight of AI in advancing green technology is that it can create “tipping points” or conversion points in the development process. As is well known, the transition to a green economy is necessary to minimize negative human impacts on the environment, but implementation faces many difficulties and challenges.
The combination of AI and green technology can create these “tipping points”. For example, AI technologies that improve production productivity, minimize waste, and increase resource efficiency across industries can create a disruptive transformation in the approach to green manufacturing. Moreover, AI can also analyze and manage environmental data, helping to measure and track advances in green technology.
Therefore, the use of AI to promote green technology can play an important role in minimizing negative human impacts on the environment, ensuring sustainable development, and creating “tipping points” in the transition to a green economy.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly important in green technology. With the ability to automate and optimize processes, AI can help minimize the amount of waste, saving energy and resources. Besides, it can also help enhance predictive and analytical capabilities, thereby providing advanced solutions for waste management and recycling.
The Waste & Recycling Expo Vietnam 2023 organized by RX Tradex is an important event in this sector. At the exhibition, manufacturers, suppliers and experts in the field of waste management and recycling will come together to exchange experiences and introduce the most advanced solutions for green technology.
Given the important role of artificial intelligence in green technology, the latest AI technologies will also be showcased at the exhibition. These new and advanced solutions will help enhance waste management and recycling capabilities, while minimizing their impact on the environment.
In conclusion, the role of artificial intelligence in green technology is very important and the Waste & Recycling Expo Vietnam 2024 organized by RX Tradex will provide an important platform for manufacturers, suppliers and experts in the field of waste management and recycling to exchange experiences and introduce the most advanced solutions for green technology.
