A way to model and understand how to reduce energy consumption and emissions so organisations can test scenarios to reach sustainability and climate goals , research from Capgemini last year found that 57 % of organisations believe digital twin technology is critical to improving sustainability efforts .

Last year , Lockheed Martin and Nvidia announced a collaboration to build an AI-driven digital twin of planet Earth , arming the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ( NOAA ) with an efficient , centralised approach to monitoring current global environmental conditions – including extreme weather events .

“ Digital twins will help us solve the world ’ s hardest scientific and environmental challenges ,” Dion Harris , Lead Product Manager of Accelerated Computing at Nvidia told sister title Technology Magazine . “ The combination of Lockheed Martin ’ s AI technology with Nvidia Omniverse gives NOAA researchers a powerful system to improve weather predictions at a global scale .”

How trusted digital twins can unlock sustainability efforts With increasing adoption of digital technologies across all industry verticals , digital twins can be a company ’ s most effective tool for improved mitigation
