Sustainability

The U.S. power sector stands at a juncture, facing a confluence of factors that are poised to trigger an era of unprecedented growth and necessitate a large influx of capital. Driven by the increasing demand from data centers, the reshoring of manufacturing, and electrification across transportation, heating, and industry, the demand for electricity is rising at a pace unseen in recent decades.

Since the industrial revolution, manufacturers and other large industrial operations have often been labeled as environmental polluters. However, this traditional viewpoint is rapidly transforming thanks to the push toward sustainability. Today, there is an undeniable shift. Manufacturers and large facilities alike are seeking to significantly reduce their carbon emissions to align with global and national […]

In an era where grid modernization, decarbonization, and electrification dominate utility agendas, fleet management strategies are lagging behind. Many utility and power generation providers continue to rely on outdated vehicle management platforms that lack the advanced total cost of ownership (TCO) analytics needed to support today’s evolving operational and sustainability goals.

Energy and water are like dance partners in a complex ballet, each intricately linked to the other. On the global stage, the greatest demand for water is for electric power generation, while the most energy-intensive sector is the extraction, treatment, and distribution of water.

Gas power is experiencing a stunning resurgence, driven by soaring electricity demand. But as utilities scramble to secure new capacity, a turbine supply crunch is unfolding, forcing urgent procurement

A changing policy landscape presents challenges for moving away from fossil fuels. Executives say that may slow, but won’t halt, the momentum to electrify. Remember the slogan “electrify everything”? It
