This month, we look at a field trial of an energy storage system for energy harvesting that has proven reliability in harsh environments – and what that should mean for wireless sensor network design.

This month, we quickly contemplate a question: What’s “digital energy,” and what does it mean for embedded?

In our Deep Green Editor’s Choice section, we look at technology helping design green into today’s new products.

This month, we explore the idea that in order to save power in many applications, you now have to know a lot about making power in a variety of different situations – or you can borrow knowledge about digital power from someone else.

This month, we take a look at wireless networks for smart energy and examine how ZigBee and Bluetooth can win by teaming with, not displacing, Wi-Fi and IP implementations in homes and offices, doing everything those technologies are good at doing.
