Today is #ZeroEmissionsDay, a day to bring awareness of the importance of transitioning away from fossil fuels and limiting carbon emissions. 🌎 At Vicinity, we're proud to be leading the transition and taking strides to meet net zero carbon emissions across all our operations. The clean energy transition can only succeed if we decarbonize heating and move away from fossil fuels. Today, our facilities are undergoing exciting transformations to make way for new, innovative technologies like industrial-scale heat pumps, electric boilers, and thermal storage. This will enable us to deliver reliable, efficient, carbon-free energy to our communities. #ZeroEmissions #VicinityEnergy #CleanEnergy

And... this is why energy efficiency will remain a critical part of the clean energy transition. Green the grid? Yes. Electrify everything? Yes. Do it all as efficiently as possible to manage costs and reduce energy burden along the way? Yes!

The world needs affordable, reliable and sustainable energy. But meeting the world’s energy requirements with net-zero climate impact is one of today’s most complex challenges. At Watts-ON Consultants our mission is to help our clients identify realistic and cost effective routes to decarbonisation and help them navigate the challenges and complexities of global energy transformation, to ensure an effective transition to low carbon energy. #esgstrategy #esgreporting #sustainableenergy #decarbonisation

Electrification across the economy is key to climate protection- but only if we are greening the grid at an even faster pace. Is it doable? Yes. Is it daunting? Yes- even more so than hitting prior clean energy goals. We can build the energy platform for decades of sustainable, equitable growth, but it will take clear-eyed, unwavering commitment and the end of magical thinking- we need all the puzzle pieces to come together in sequence to minimize unintended consequences, like the harbingers observed in this article. #sustainableenergy #cleanenergy #electrification #cleanenergytransition #cleanenergyfuture

America's Climate Plan: Challenges and Hopes and Shift Away from Fossil Fuels The future once seemed optimistic for America’s #climate ambitions, with rapid growth in #renewableenergy propelling the nation toward a cleaner, more sustainable future.  Several factors—rising costs, swelling demand for electricity, and a slow technological rollout—have delayed the necessary shift away from fossil fuels.  More than 40% of the world’s #electricity came from low-carbon sources in 2023, with wind and #solarenergy making up over 90% of new power capacity.  Mateo Jaramillo, CEO of Form Energy, notes, “Even that—which is a massively successful business, assuming we get there—is a tiny drop in the bucket.” Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gg4HUgCK Rextag's Energy DataLink: One app to meet your energy research needs Try it for FREE: https://lnkd.in/gQnY5Uuw

It’s time to rethink energy efficiency If the world is going to hit our climate goals, we can’t only focus on using less energy, but also using it at the right time. By harnessing the power of demand-side flexibility, we can save: ∙ 40 million tons of CO2 emissions every year in the EU and UK ∙ €10.5 billion for society annually by 2030 ∙ 7% on average on household electricity bills We have just unveiled a brand-new whitepaper exploring Energy Efficiency 2.0, where we dive deep into the future of energy, and explore how solutions like our Leanheat® technology are making a leap forward possible.
