The third industrial revolution : energy internet – ‘ internet of energy ( IoE )’ Devised by Jeremy Rifkin , the ‘ third industrial revolution ’ furthers the digital platform ecosystem offering the energy industry the opportunity to create an ‘ energy internet ’ of a smart , responsive , sustainable , and decentralised network of energy and information . Such a network would create millions of jobs and help to eliminate energy poverty .
Based on multi-directional flows of renewable energy and supported by the digital revolution , the ‘ internet of energy ( IoE )’ uses the internet of things ( IoT ) technology combined with a variety of energy systems to reduce inefficiencies in existing energy infrastructure by increasing generation , transmission , and use of electricity .
