"There's a massive amount of goodness that comes out of this. It's not just about cost, but it's also about greenhouse emissions. It's about unnecessary heat, and it's about the reduction in the use of fossil fuels, explains Riaz Raihan, Chief Digital Officer, Trane Technologies. "Digital technology can play a really vital and a very tangible role.” And you can see how it connects back to our vision of challenging what's possible for a sustainable world.”
