I talked to Rich Lechner, IBM’s VP of Energy and Environment, the other day about the global problem of getting transportation right. According to Rich, in the US alone, congested roadways cost about $78bn per year so this is very much an economic as well as a sustainability-related issue!
We had a wide-ranging conversation about all kinds of solutions, including using demand response to manage traffic flows!
