Actemium, the VINCI Energies industrial process brand, has created its own startup within Lille’s EuraTechnologies incubator to help factories make better use of their data. Immersion is more than a radical method for learning a foreign language. Actemium, the VINCI Energies industry brand, has experimented with the technique in a radically different field and taken […]
In a landscape in which multiple power outputs for battery charging are set to coexist, the barriers to electric mobility are gradually coming down, signalling the emergence of the electric car as a driver of behavioural change. This time it really does look like the electric car has stopped being a curiosity, something the general public has viewed with scepticism for some years, and could soon be a mainstream product. Experts […]
Electricity grid concession holders initiating gigantic high-voltage transmission line construction projects seek “full EPC” solutions such as the one developed by Omexom for Energisa in Brazil. To build two major grid interconnections in Brazil, electricity distributor Energisa opted for a “full EPC” solution and awarded all project stages including design, materials selection and supply, and […]
In July 2017, the British government set up a special fund to accelerate battery research and production. With £246m in funding over four years, the Faraday Challenge will bring together the leading energy storage specialists in a battery research centre. The virtual institute has a three-pronged remit: research, innovation, and industrialisation of the solutions devised […]
Additive manufacturing, one of the many technological innovations making up the industry of the future, is booming. What does it really bring to tomorrow’s factory? “Additive manufacturing is overhauling methods and processes,” says pre-sales engineer at Actemium Saint-Etienne Process Solutions (VINCI Energies), Alexandre Mandon. By adding layers of material to obtain a finished part, additive […]
Article published by our partner site Le Monde de l’Énergie The economic recovery is expected to boost activity in the oil and gas industries and to give them an opportunity to catch up in big data, IoT and cloud computing. By investing in digital technologies, and more specifically in planning and automation tools, oil and […]
Article published by our partner site Outthere In San Francisco and in Strasbourg, two researchers are investigating the same topic: developing artificial intelligence to a level at which it can seek and find solutions without human involvement. The work of Risto Miikulainen from Finland and Français Pierre Collet from France is based on evolutionary computation, […]
Digital technologies and big data can be used to better control energy consumption, a strategic goal of local authorities, and provide greater comfort for citizens. Artificial intelligence is spreading to the entire urban space and is now used in streetlights, traffic lights, signage, charging stations, and variable message signs. Thousands of sensors have been installed […]
Jobs, skills, management, quality of life at work … in the digital age, the future of industry entails first and foremost making the most of the place and role of the operator within the production ecosystem. Not a month goes by without a further study describing the impact of the industry of the future on […]
