I am loving the progress Intramotev is making with their #Revolt solution to transform freight rail operations. This will be the world's first deployment of self-propelled battery-electric railcars in a traditional freight train, using regenerative braking and battery technology to reduce diesel consumption from locomotives, resulting in lower costs for rail operators and reducing emissions impact from rail operations. As someone who has invested a significant amount of time in Public Transportation and worked in Rail Operations, this is awesome to see the industry moving forward. This would not happen without the tireless hustle from innovators who know they have something that can do something better than carrying on with the status quo, just because "it works, and we've been doing it for xx years" PR Newswire article: https://lnkd.in/gM7GVAvX #RailOperations #Rail #Railway #Freight #Intramotev #FreightTrain #AutonomousVehicles #Innovation #ElectricVehicles #Transportation

This was a momentous day for Wabtec - unveiling the world’s largest heavy-haul battery electric locomotive destined for Australia. And, it’s pink! A reflection of our partner Roy Hill’s commitment to breast cancer research and awareness. Wabtec followed their example by making a donation to local Erie breast cancer non-profit @linkedbypink. This is a powerful example of how we work together as #OneWabtec to #ExpandThePossible for our customers in their efforts to decarbonize the rail industry. And, last but not least, how we put #PeopleFirst at Wabtec.

Driving Sustainability: Decarbonising the Transformer Supply Chain (2/4) - #copper DECARBONISATION PATHWAY https://lnkd.in/dP6yZEvm ☁ Members of the International Copper Association have committed to a goal of bringing #Scope1 and #Scope2 #ghgemissions to net zero by 2050 and are engaging with the value chain with the aim to reduce #Scope3 🔌 #Scope2 represent about 50% of emissions. Access to #carbonfree #electricity is a key driver for #decarbonisation ⛽ #Scope1 represent about 25% of emissions. #electrification of mining fleets will largely contribute to their decarbonisation (see https://lnkd.in/dfMtSGbQ) International Copper Association Europe CWIEME Events (Coil Winding, Insulation, & Electrical Manufacturing Exhibition) Boliden

#SUD18 Pitcher Megan O'Connor is doing incredible things in the #EV space! 👏 Megan O’Connor, CEO and Founder of Nth Cycle, was named as an Automotive News All Star! Today, Nth Cycle is leading the solution to decentralize the refining of battery minerals. "We can do metal refining in a much cleaner way," O’Connor said. "We can't build a clean energy economy on a dirty source of materials. It will be a game changer to get this to scale." Learn more 👇 https://ow.ly/vjog50QpCFf

Last week, we celebrated our Topping-Out Ceremony, marking the highest point in the structural frame of our Central Lithium Electrolysis Optimisation Plant (CLEOP) in Frankfurt-Höchst, one of Europe's largest industrial parks. The event was attended by local industry stakeholders, including Infraserv GmbH & Co. Höchst KG. This marks an important milestone for Vulcan as we work towards producing the first carbon-neutral lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LHM) this year. Vulcan’s CLEOP will convert the lithium chloride from our Lithium Extraction Optimisation Plant (LEOP) into LHM, used for battery production in electric vehicles. CLEOP will focus on optimising operating conditions in preparation for start of commercial production. It will also serve as a product testing facility for its offtake partners and a commercial readiness training ground for Vulcan’s team. This is a very exciting time for Vulcan as operations continue successfully at LEOP, where the start of production was announced last week. Vulcan is on track to securing a fully domestic and sustainable lithium supply chain for Europe. #Delivering #FirstLiCl #ExecutionReady #ZEROCARBON #LITHIUM™ #Project #Energytransition #Mobilitytransition #Geothermalenergy #ERLG #SustainabilityLeadership #cleanenergyfuture #batteries #ElectricVehicles #RenewableEnergy #Directlithiumextraction

Some black and white information regarding this endless topic. The shift into #electricvehicle is a path with no return. It is also worth saying that the technologies will co-exist and the cleanest or #zeroemissions should be promoted. https://smpl.is/7irox #electricvehicle #cleanenergy #sustainability #greentransportation #emissionfree #EVtechnology

Go Utah Since 1940, titanium has been produced via the Kroll Process which is complex, costly, and very carbon intensive. This has resulted in titanium metal traditionally being used in specialized applications where its physical benefits are critical despite its cost. IperionX's HAMR Process was developed by Dr. Zak Fang at the University of Utah with funding from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s ARPA-E Program. The HAMR Process can produce titanium metal at a lower cost and with lower carbon intensity than the Kroll Process, and has the potential to rely completely on renewable energy. It can also utilize titanium scrap feedstock to produce 100% recycled titanium metal powder which is otherwise downcycled or landfilled. The HAMR Process can also enable cost reductions up to 75% at full commercial scale. IperionX's low-cost, low-carbon titanium has the potential to disrupt the metals industry. Titanium could be used in a variety of industries from consumer electronics, electric vehicles, to construction and more. At IperionX we have the potential to bring this metal to the forefront of the industry and enable the Titanium Age. https://hubs.la/Q02b1LyX0
