“With the foundation for the five smartest blocks in the world now in place, Catalyst and the South Landing Eco-District prove what is possible when industry leaders work together to think big and test bold ideas,” said Morris. “What we have created is so transformative and innovative, it will serve as a new model for collaboration across industries. Together, we are reimagining rcs data the future of energy and sustainable development. What we learn will support a reliable, affordable, and clean energy future for all of us.”
