QuakeCoRE 2021 – 2028 Research Programme – Interdisciplinary Programme 4: Harnessing Disruptive Technologies for Seismic Resilience
10 am Friday 18th March
| Programme Co-Leader: Nirmal Nair (University of Auckland) & Programme Co-Leader: Garry McDonald (Market Economics) |
Abstract
This programme will identify how transformational (i.e. order of magnitude) advancements in NZs infrastructure resilience can be achieved through strategic adoption of disruptive technologies, via government and market-led initiatives. A central hypothesis is that rapid adoption of several disruptive technologies (e.g. distributed solar power, autonomous transport, and a sensing society) will result in a significantly greater resilience gain than the conventional wisdom of incremental investment to improve existing asset classes (e.g. centralized transmission networks, physical logistics, significantly increased public awareness and preparedness).
