Today, the whole world is facing the need to shift to alternative sources for energy. Industries have shown a significant leap in using smart energy. The smart energy system is expected to be sustainable, cost-effective, intelligent, and integrated. Thus, it is essential to move to renewable sources to fight growing environmental problems. Industries are shifting rapidly to these renewable sources, and it is the proper time for providers to address this change.
Changfeng Energy Inc. is a Canadian company which is an important distributor of natural gas to the People’s Republic of China. In 2017, Changfeng Energy Inc. decided to begin a three-year plan of shifting focus to sustainable energy. It aimed to become an integrated energy provider in PRC by supplying natural gas and sustainable energy. Previously, government guidelines propelled the Chinese economy to move from fossil fuel. To meet this need, Changfeng decided to move to sustainable energy and clean technology, and it announced its integrated smart energy project. Integrated smart energy project ensured the combination of multiple clean energy sources to generate power. They were intended to include the solar, hydro, electricity, natural gas, and thermal energy in this combination. This use of multiple sources in a single system enabled the company to supply energy depending on the geography and weather condition of an area. Sustainable sources empowered the company to achieve efficiency cost-effectively.
