Exploring the future of efficient energy collaboration! ⚡ COMANAGE Project addresses the hurdles faced by citizen-led energy communities. The project works on co-creating 🤝 an open-source toolkit ⚙️ that fosters better governance and management, propelling renewable energy communities forward. 📈 Take a look at the diagram to learn more about the concept ⬇ https://lnkd.in/egiEANvy

Read this article from Facilities Dive to hear Budderfly CEO Al Subbloie discuss challenges surrounding the adoption of heat pumps, their benefits, and how outsourcing energy management can boost efficiency.

Energy and Water Development ("EnWaDev") appreciates the opportunity to help Centrio Energy (CE) by conceptualizing specific ideas and technology approaches to deliver Resilient Affordable Decarbonized Energy (RADE) to CE's customers. Some concepts will manifest as projects and CE has selected WSP to lead project implementation and the WSP team brings domain expertise including engineering and project delivery. As concepts morph into RADE projects, we can prove the proposition, "no conflict between your wallet and conscience", i.e. decarbonization, resiliency, sustainability are more than feel-good words. Indeed, when grounded on granular energy use data, conceptualized per rigorous thermodynamic and hydrodynamic principles, engineered per site specific opportunities and constraints, long-term contracted and project financed per the rule, "a risk must be borne by entity best able to mitigate a specific risk", project delivered after "scope freeze" and a realistic schedule............. then, District Energy will "PROFITABLY reduce greenhouse gas emissions".

What are renewable energy certificates or REC's? Here’s a detailed look at their significance: 1. Encouraging Renewable Energy Production: Market-Based Mechanism: RECs provide a market-based mechanism for promoting renewable energy. Each REC represents the environmental attributes of one megawatt-hour (MWh) of renewable energy generated. Incentivizing Development: By monetizing the environmental benefits of renewable energy, RECs create additional revenue streams for renewable energy projects, making them more financially viable and encouraging further investment and development. 2. Facilitating Compliance: Regulatory Requirements: Many regions have Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) or similar regulations that require utilities and other electricity providers to source a certain percentage of their power from renewable sources. RECs provide a way to demonstrate compliance with these requirements. Flexible Compliance Tool: Utilities can purchase RECs to meet their renewable energy targets without having to produce the renewable energy themselves, offering flexibility in how they meet regulatory mandates. 3. Supporting Corporate Sustainability Goals: Voluntary Market: Many corporations and organizations purchase RECs to meet their sustainability goals and commitments to using renewable energy. Environmental Stewardship: By purchasing RECs, companies can claim to offset their carbon footprint and demonstrate their commitment to environmental stewardship, enhancing their corporate social responsibility (CSR) profiles. 4. Tracking and Verification: Transparency and Accountability: RECs provide a standardized and verifiable way to track renewable energy production and its environmental benefits. This ensures transparency and accountability in the renewable energy market. Avoiding Double Counting: The use of RECs helps prevent double counting of renewable energy claims, ensuring that the environmental benefits of renewable energy are accurately represented and accounted for. 5. Economic Benefits: Revenue for Renewable Projects: Selling RECs provides an additional revenue stream for renewable energy producers, which can be critical for the financial sustainability of these projects. Job Creation and Economic Growth: The increased development of renewable energy projects supported by RECs can lead to job creation and economic growth, particularly in regions investing in renewable infrastructure. 6. Environmental Impact: Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions: RECs support the generation of renewable energy, which replaces fossil fuel-based power generation and reduces greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to the fight against climate change. Promoting Clean Energy: By supporting renewable energy, RECs help reduce pollution and environmental degradation associated with conventional energy sources, leading to cleaner air and water. #recs #solarrevolution #renewables #cleanpower https://lnkd.in/g_GN6qCG

“This guide sets a very clear road map across the life cycle of a precinct to ensure all stakeholders are working effectively towards a common goal. By electrifying precincts properly from the beginning, we will see huge environmental and financial benefits for many generations to come.”

Producing clean hydrogen and reducing green house gas emissions are essential for environmental sustainability.

I live in Saskatchewan, the temperature changes so drastically that the pavement is easily damaged. It costs the city so much money every few months to patch potholes. I’m sure there are other places in the world with this sort of problem, and we could benefit from better, more durable material in the production of pavement, tarmac. Interesting video on the matter Bill Gates!

Very interesting to observe the development of Quality Factor Index Swap. Such products would be increasingly important with the rise of renewables as explained in a few of my posts: - Capture price of renewables: https://lnkd.in/dvCXxHiH - Solar Cannibalization effect: https://lnkd.in/d2Zq4peQ
