MAKING YOUR ORGANIZATION CARBON NEUTRAL WITH RENEWABLE NATURAL GAS

whitePaper | June 2, 2022

The growing importance of sustainability is cultivating demand for comprehensive energy solutions that can help organizations achieve their environmentally focused goals. Low-carbon alternatives in recent years have been more focused on electricity from intermittent renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar PV, in addition to some base load sources such as landfill gas and biomass-fueled power generation. However, demand for addressing the thermal side of the equation is gaining momentum.

Changing the current How utilities are removing barriers & energizing smart infrastructure

whitePaper | January 12, 2023

Decarbonization coupled with the rise of renewables and government mandates have put pressure on utilities to diversify their energy sources. As federal investments in renewable infrastructure increase and the dynamics in energy market policies change, utilities are poised to incorporate distributed energy resources (DERs) onto their grids like never before. The combination of Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) orders 841 and 2222 and the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) standards 1547 (2018) and 2030 (2011) stand as powerful enablers to create smart infrastructure to better balance and manage the grid of the future.
