Apple’s Beats brand in April unveiled the Powerbeats Pro, a redesigned wire-free version of its popular fitness-oriented Powerbeats earbuds.

1. Distributed energy resources One of the most obvious connections between city strategies and utility innovation is the push towards renewable energy. Cities are responsible for more than two-thirds of the world’s energy use and greenhouse gas emissions, and they have become increasingly aggressive in exerting pressure on utilities to shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy to help meet emissions targets. Cities are looking to install DER solutions in municipal buildings and are encouraging the adoption of residential and commercial clean energy solutions through programmes to support solar photovoltaics (PV), storage, combined heat and power systems, and other community energy schemes. Distributed renewables development and integration, distributed energy storage systems, and microgrids all offer the opportunity for utilities to make their energy services more efficient, resilient, cost-effective and sustainable. To date, utility efforts have been largely reactive, focused on issues caused by renewables intermittency, shifting loads, capacity constraints, and bidirectional power flows.

I can imagine, in the future, different grades of this glass with higher efficiency/ less light transmittance for different latitudes. Also I can imagine a sunshade version, or even glass solar cell louvres external to the highrise window that track the sun for greater efficiency.

China’s state-owned conglomerate Sinomatch joined with General Electric Co. to launch a 102-megawatt wind power demonstration project in Kenya in 2015. China National Electric Engineering Co. opened Ethiopia’s first waste-to-energy facility last year in Addis Ababa. And China Eximbank has provided nearly $400 million in financing for the Cauchari solar plant in Argentina, which will be the largest solar facility in South America when it is completed and will use mostly Chinese materials.

The answer might be LED light bulbs and lighting systems from Cree (NASDAQ:CREE). LED lights use far less electricity than traditional HPS bulbs, they generate much less heat, which can help reduce cooling system expenses, and they also last much longer than HPS bulbs.

Joe O’Connell, owner of Creative Machines, created this donut-shaped piece of art. Like other works by O’Connell, it lights up. Each night a different pattern of colored lights circle slowly inside. Insider tip: The light is interactive … try lightly pressing the doughnut to see what happens.

Even cooler: Under a smart technology partnership with the Marine Corps, the city is planning to use drones for police work, bridge inspections and other functions.
