Scale fail: when modelling is crucial (and surprising) | The Dyson Blog

By gaining a much deeper understanding of project and process requirements early on, we can quickly settle on a functional solution and start thinking about the most efficient construction method (and opportunities for introducing DfMA) far sooner than would be conventionally possible.. DIGITAL, DATA AND CLIENT COLLABORATION IS THE FUTURE OF CONSTRUCTION.

Eric Ingersoll has conducted analysis which suggests that if everyone on earth had access to just a median level of electricity (about 4,000 kilowatt hours compared to an existing rate of 15,000 kilowatt hours in the U.S.), even then, we’d need to triple our energy infrastructure.It’s vital that we start taking our rising energy demand into account, and building it into our climate mitigation strategies..

Replacing fossil fuels with sustainable energy infrastructure.Overcoming the climate emergency won’t stop with decarbonising electricity production.We need to replace our entire global, fossil fuel based energy infrastructure by 2050.

Transport and industry must be addressed alongside electricity production.We need solutions not only for coal, but also for liquid fuels.

Terra Praxis is focusing on the most significant of energy initiatives, including oil and gas.

Currently, 100 million barrels of oil are used per day, with more than half of our global energy predicted to still be coming from fossil fuels by mid-century.We should always aim for a positive shared experience with a good outcome.

The root of project dispute is usually a lack of common understanding about the why, the what, and the how related to a project.Why the project is being built, what needs to be designed and constructed, and how this will be accomplished.

If we begin to dig deeper at this root and help stakeholders to work together differently to make sure they have this common understanding, we will not only improve the way projects are delivered but also the way people feel about their experience working on a project.. 2.Design the business case first to avoid missing ways to discover what value looks like.
