WESTFIELD STREAMLINES SOLAR PROGRAM FOR OPEX SAVINGS

December 12, 2017

Since the engagement began in early 2012, Westfield has moved forward with projects at five properties that will more than quadruple their solar energy production, slash utility bills and provide added sustainability benefits for tenants and customers. Between CAM electricity savings and the overhead costs recovered by partnering with Alta Energy, Westfield has already cut their OPEX by nearly $1 million per year, creating savings that contribute directly to the bottom line. By the end of 2018, their savings will total over $2 million annually, with over 10 MW of solar installed at 7 facilities across their portfolio. These installations will cut CAM electricity purchases by over 7% from 2016 and further differentiate Westfield’s brand as a leading innovator in the retail space industry.

Rules for an Energy-Secure Global Green Hydrogen Economy

whitePaper | November 9, 2022

Hydrogen is not just another fuel. Hydrogen is expected to serve as a primary industrial fuel in the 21st century, just as coal drove the 19th century and oil drove the 20th century. Decarbonised hydrogen produced by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen using renewable electricity (‘green’ hydrogen) or other low-carbon variants that sequester carbon emissions – could be a gamechanger in strengthening energy security and powering the energy transition.

Green Innovations of Antennas

whitePaper | May 16, 2022

Energy saving has become one of the most discussed topics of green development. Antennas, especially passive antennas, do not directly consume DC or AC electric energy, leaving them easily overlooked when energy saving is discussed. However, as unique devices that convert between radio frequency (RF) energy and electromagnetic waves, antennas transmit the RF energy to mobile devices. The efficiency in which the antennas convert energy has a significant bearing on the power consumed by base stations

NORTH CAROLINA: LEADING THE CHARGE TO A CLEAN ENERGY FUTURE

whitePaper | December 31, 2022

North Carolina leads the United States in taking bold steps to address climate change and rising energy costs. Over the last two decades, the state has enacted a series of legislative, executive and regulatory actions to propel the state toward a clean energy future. These actions laid the foundation for landmark bipartisan climate legislation passed in 2021 known as House Bill 951 (HB 951) which requires North Carolina utilities to reach carbon neutrality by 2050. Simultaneously, North Carolina has invested heavily in diversifying its energy resource mix to include increased amounts of renewable energy sources. These investments have enabled North Carolina businesses to meet their sustainability goals while benefiting from some of the lowest energy costs in the country.

Securing the Energy Transition

whitePaper | January 12, 2023

Energy security and affordability present global challenges, but both are integral elements of a successful energy transition, alongside sustainability to mitigate climate change. The current energy crisis is driving inflation, slowing economic growth and contributing to social turmoil. Some choices made by countries in response to the crisis, such as improving energy efficiency and scaling renewables, will be beneficial for the wider energy transition. But other actions – including increased production of electricity from coal and broad-based consumption subsidies – put longterm energy transition imperatives at risk, while leaving those countries more vulnerable to future crises and putting global climate goals out of reach.

Unearthing Opportunity: Uranium Miners and the Global Clean Energy Transition

whitePaper | April 1, 2022

The clean energy transition means shifting electricity production away from sources that release significant greenhouse gases, such as fossil fuels, to those that release minimal greenhouse gases. Nuclear power, hydro, wind and solar are the primary clean energy sources. Around two-thirds of the world’s electricity still comes from burning fossil fuels. In order to progress toward climate goals, particularly those outlined in the Paris Agreement, at least 80% of energy production will need to shift to low-carbon sources.
