Net Zero Intelligent Operations (NIO)

Solution Introduction

Net Zero Intelligent Operations (NIO) by HCLTech is an award-winning enterprise-wide energy and GHG emission management solution that helps enterprises become more sustainable, cost, and energy efficient in their endeavor to reduce their carbon emissions and contribute to their net zero goals.

The cloud agnostic & scalable solution, enables monitoring, normalization, comparison, and reduction of energy consumption and GHG emissions in real-time. The solution helps enterprises reduce carbon emissions by optimizing the energy intensity of assets and processes. It also enables calculation, reporting, and identifying emission optimization potential for workspaces and shop floors. NIO also enables enterprises to achieve compliance reporting for GRI, GHG, ISO50001, TCFD, etc.

Powered by digital twin, IoT and AI and connecting the Operations Technology (OT) and Information Technology (IT) systems across the enterprise, the solution delivers a set of functionalities to optimize energy consumption at an enterprise level. NIO also enables the addressal of a technology-powered roadmap for enterprises as they undergo their energy transition journey beyond Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to address Scope 3 emissions and to meet any future global sustainability compliance requirements.
