![]() ![]() Capgemini has also collaborated with Microsoft on a first-of-its-kind, cloud-native, serverless Azure-based digital twin platform, called Reflect IoD. ![]() There’s certainly no sign of let-up in interest. Microsoft has seen wins with its Azure Digital Twins platform aiding wind farms to understand the effect turbines have on local wildlife and ecosystems, as well as assisting Rolls Royce and Proctor and Gamble (P&G) to promote a faster, more resilient manufacturing model. Though relatively new technology, digital twins are already successfully simulating solutions across the likes of the manufacturing, automotive, retail sectors and more. ![]() Seeing the complexity of the project ahead, TfL has partnered with a start-up, Spinview, to develop a digital twin able to capture environmental data and visualize it through a bespoke platform.Ĭurrently, it’s a prototype, so we are just capturing a slice in time – Daniel Rahamim, TfL To back the environmental agenda, the Piccadilly line upgrade (PLU) program, part of TfL’s major projects directorate, has been tasked with upgrading the tube line without closing it. Nonetheless, transport is still one of the main sources of greenhouse emissions, and together with emissions from buildings, represents 90 percent of total emissions.Īchieving sustainable public transport is a priority for Transport for London (TfL), and in 2021 the local government body published its Corporate Environment Plan where it outlined the strategy that the UK capital’s transport system will follow to support the Mayor of London’s target of making the city carbon neutral by 2030. ![]() Transportation emissions in the capital decreased by nearly two million tonnes of CO2e between 20 due to lockdown restrictions. More crucially, it could also help TfL turn London’s public transport greener by making it carbon neutral within the next decade. Today, the dark blue line is in the middle of developing a digital twin project that, if successful, could radically transform the efficiency of the whole London Underground network. It might not be the longest or busiest line of the underground network, but the Piccadilly line has a fascinating history – it made London the first city in the world with an underground railway connecting to an airport in 1977 and, during WWII, helped to house treasures kept by the British Museum. ![]()
