·International survey of 765 decision-makers reveals that while 96 percent believe digitalization is “essential to sustainability,” just 35 percent have implemented Industrial IoT solutions at scale
·72 percent of companies are increasing investment in Industrial IoT specifically to address sustainability aims
·"數以億計的更好決策 "強調了工業物聯網解決方案在實現可持續發展目標方面的作用，同時增強了工業勞動力的能力
·對765名決策者進行的國際調查顯示，盡管96%的人認為數字化對可持續發展 "至關重要"，但只有35%的人已經大規模地實施了工業物聯網解決方案

ABB released the findings of a new global study1 of international business and technology leaders on industrial transformation, looking at the intersection of digitalization and sustainability. The study, “Billions of better decisions: industrial transformation’s new imperative,” examines the current take-up of the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) and its potential for improving energy efficiency, lowering greenhouse gas emissions and driving change. The goal of the new ABB research is to spur discussion within industry regarding opportunities to leverage the Industrial IoT and empower companies and workers to make better decisions that can benefit both sustainability and the bottom line.
ABB發布了一項針對國際商業和技術領袖的關于工業轉型的新的全球研究1的結果，探討了數字化和可持續性的交叉點。這項名為 "數十億個更好的決定：工業轉型的新要求 "的研究，考察了目前工業物聯網（IoT）的應用情況及其在提高能源效率、降低溫室氣體排放和推動變革方面的潛力。ABB新研究的目的是在工業界討論利用工業物聯網的機會，使公司和工人能夠做出更好的決定，從而有利于可持續性和底線。
“Sustainability goals more and more are a crucial driver of business value and company reputation, and Industrial IoT solutions are playing an increasingly important role in helping enterprises achieve safe, smart and sustainable operations,” said Peter Terwiesch, President of ABB’s Process Automation business area. “Unlocking insights hidden in operational data holds the key to enabling literally billions of better decisions throughout industry and acting upon them, with significant gains in productivity, reduced energy consumption and lower environmental impact.”
ABB集團過程自動化事業部總裁Peter Terwiesch表示：“可持續發展目標日益成為企業商業價值和公司聲譽的關鍵驅動力，工業物聯網解決方案在幫助企業實現安全、智能和可持續運營方面發揮著越來越重要的作用。發掘隱藏在運營數據中的洞見，是在整個行業中真正實現海量更優決策的關鍵，據此采取行動，從而顯著提高生產率，減少能源消耗，降低環境影響。”
The study, commissioned by ABB, found that an organization’s “future competitiveness” is the single greatest factor – cited by 46 percent of respondents – in industrial companies’ increased focus on sustainability. Yet while 96 percent of global decision-makers view digitalization as “essential to sustainability,” only 35 percent of surveyed firms have implemented Industrial IoT solutions at scale. This gap shows that while many of today’s industrial leaders recognize the important relationship between digitalization and sustainability, the adoption of relevant digital solutions to enable better decisions and achieve sustainability goals needs to accelerate in sectors like manufacturing, energy, buildings and transport.
ABB委托開展的這項研究發現，46%的受訪者認為，組織的“未來競爭力”是工業企業日益關注可持續發展的首要因素。然而，盡管全球96%的決策者認為數字化“對可持續發展至關重要”，但只有35%的受訪企業大規模實施了工業物聯網解決方案。這一差距表明，盡管當今許多行業領導者都認識到數字化與可持續發展之間的重要關系，但在制造、能源、建筑和交通等行業仍需加快采用相關的數字化解決方案，以實現更好的決策和可持續發展目標。
Further key learnings from the study
·71 percent of respondents reported greater priority given to sustainability objectives as a result of the pandemic
·72 percent said they are “somewhat” or “significantly” increasing spending on Industrial IoT due to sustainability
·94 percent of respondents agreed the Industrial IoT “enables better decisions, improving overall sustainability”
·57 percent of respondents indicated the Industrial IoT has had a “significant positive effect” on operational decision-making
·Perceived cybersecurity vulnerabilities are the #1 barrier to improving sustainability through the Industrial IoT
該研究的其他重要發現包括：
·71%的受訪者表示，由于疫情的影響，他們對可持續性目標給予了更大的優先權
·72%的受訪者表示，由于可持續發展，他們 "在一定程度上 "或 "在很大程度上 "增加了工業物聯網的支出
·94%的受訪者同意工業物聯網 "能夠做出更好的決策，提高整體的可持續性"
·57%的受訪者表示，工業物聯網對運營決策產生了 "重大的積極影響"
·認為網絡安全漏洞是通過工業物聯網提高可持續性的第一大障礙
Win-win scenarios with the Industrial IoT
工業物聯網帶來雙贏局面
With 63 percent of executives surveyed strongly agreeing that sustainability is good for their company’s bottom line, and 58 percent also strongly agreeing it delivers immediate business value, it’s clear that sustainability and traditional priorities of Industry 4.0 efforts – speed, innovation, productivity, efficiency, customer-centricity – are increasingly intertwined, opening up win-win scenarios for companies looking to drive efficiency and productivity while making strides on climate change.
63%的受訪高管非常認同可持續發展有利于其公司盈利，58%的人還非常認同它創造了直接的商業價值。很明顯，可持續發展與推動工業4.0的傳統要素——速度、創新、生產力、效率、以客戶為中心之間日益緊密交織，為希望在應對氣候變化的同時提高效率和生產力的企業創造了雙贏局面。
“The International Energy Agency2 estimates that industry accounts for more than 40 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions today,” said Terwiesch. “If we are to reach climate objectives such as the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement, industrial organizations need to implement digital solutions as part of their sustainability strategies. Embracing these technologies at all levels – from the boardroom to the facility floor – is key, as every member of the industrial workforce can become a better decision-maker when it comes to sustainability.”
Terwiesch表示：“據國際能源署估算，工業領域的溫室氣體排放量占目前全球排放總量的40%以上。要實現聯合國可持續發展目標和《巴黎協定》等氣候目標，工業企業必須將數字化解決方案納入其可持續發展戰略。積極擁抱數字化技術對從董事會到基層的各個層面都至關重要，因為在可持續發展方面，行業中的每一個成員都可以成為更好的決策者。”
