In 2018, NEMA launched the IoTNOW webinar series as part of its Strategic Initiatives Program. The series addresses the challenges and opportunities posed by increased connectivity and automation in the workplace, in the electric grid, and in smart cities.
The IoTNOW webinars include practical guidance on how to develop a system-based approach to energy efficiency in buildings and how a modernized electric grid can save consumers money.
GPS devices and smartphones facilitate our transportation systems by communicating instantly with localized traffic information systems to alert drivers to jams, mishaps, and other slowdowns as well as to reroute drivers in real-time. The latest technologies are also critical to ensure that emergency vehicles arrive on time.
