  • Patent number: 11900296
    Abstract: Embodiments of system and method for a sustainable digital twin system, are described. In one aspect, the sustainable digital twin system includes a cooperative working of multiple engines to enable managing virtual assets corresponding to each physical asset in a facility. The sustainable digital twin system may implement a manage of change (MoC) mechanism to track and manage modifications of the virtual assets in the facility. The modifications of the virtual assets may be simulated in a work-in-progress environment. The impact of the modifications of the modified virtual asset and the other virtual assets in the facility may be analyzed. Upon analysis, an end user may review suggestions or recommendations provided by the sustainable digital twin system, update and implement the modifications in the work-in-progress environment, before propagating the modifications to a production environment.
