SureFlow introduces AI-driven solutions to reduce energy consumption

    The global smart cities market is poised for strong growth, driven by rapid urbanisation, government initiatives, and significant development in technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT) and 5G, says an industry veteran.

Sebastien Dui, SureFlow’s dynamic Chief Executive Officer, said the GCC countries are heavily investing in smart city initiatives as part of their economic diversification and sustainability goals with projects like Saudi Arabia’s Neom and Dubai’s Smart Dubai Plan.

“Dubai's smart city initiatives are commendable, and they are a part of the bigger sustainability and AI transformation objectives of the UAE Energy Strategy 2050,” Sebastien Dui told Gulf Today during an exclusive interview.

Highlighting sustainability goals of futuristic projects, the CEO of UK-based SureFlow said smart cities are increasingly focused on reducing carbon footprints through smart grids, renewable energy, and electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure.

“Basically, smart cities integrate digital technology into urban infrastructure to improve efficiency, sustainability, and quality of life. These interconnected technologies optimise city operations through real-time data collection and analysis, enabling benefits like reduced traffic congestion, optimised energy consumption, improved public safety, and enhanced household services to ultimately create a more sustainable way of living for the community,” Sebastien Dui said.

Homeowners in smart cities are empowered through advanced technologies to optimiae their energy consumption. For example, based on solar availability and grid demands, they can be informed about the best time to charge their electric vehicles vehicle, avoid higher energy tariffs through smart recommendations, and be alerted if a hidden water flow anomaly or leak occurs. Smart cities enable this level of intelligent living while reducing energy costs significantly.

“This is where SureFlow comes in, as a cutting-edge technology company that leveraged its dedicated in-house R&D lab to develop comprehensive AI-powered energy monitoring and optimisation solutions.  We have innovated a comprehensive AI-empowered system that can contribute to achieving these smart city objectives, through our 24/7 energy monitoring system that empowers smart city consumers with a better understanding of their energy usage patterns, so they can optimise them,” Sebastien Dui said.

“Our solution also addresses the top concern of homeowners, which is energy cost, by keeping the consumers always alert about their water, electricity, gas, and solar power usage, cutting extra bill costs at every corner.

Homeowners in smart cities, will achieve these goals as a part of a more engaged, environmentally conscious community,” he added.

Sebastien Dui said SureFlow products and smart cities are interconnected and the consumers are direct beneficiary of this sustainable ecosystem.
