Let's start fresh with another new IoT use case from the renewable energy domain. Let's assume that a multinational conglomerate giant has forayed into the field of renewable energy to provide solar energy as a service for off-grid locations. The company aims to provide end-to-end solar energy setup in areas where drawing an electric cable for power is much more expensive than arranging diesel for a generator. Tropical countries in Africa will be a perfect example for this scenario. Consider a small village in Uganda where there is an abundance of solar energy but no electricity; many small to medium organizations rely on diesel-powered generators for daily operations. The operational expenses for these organizations would go beyond break-even as a huge cost is incurred in transporting and arranging diesel, maintaining and servicing the diesel generators time to time, and purchasing the required diesel to generate electricity.
