Reduce CO2 and NOx emissions worldwide, by repowering to latest technology combustion engines. - CO2 emission reduction, due to more fuel efficient engines, reducing OPEX for the operator. - NOx reduction of at least 70% due to use of a catalyst convertor, reducing health problems substantially. Did you know that all Volvo Penta marine engines are approved to run on HVO100, to reduce fossil CO2 close to zero? #VPpowerrrr #repower #repowering #reduceemissions #futureproof #roadtozeroemission

🎉 Another milestone for #TRU!   ⚡ This week, TRU marked another pivotal step towards a greener, more reliable railway as TransPennine Express successfully ran their first electric train services between Manchester Victoria and Stalybridge.   🚅 The milestone follows the introduction of Northern electric services on the same stretch of railway in August.   🛠️ Work continues as we aim to deliver a fully electrified Transpennine route - September saw our first electric test trains between York and Church Fenton, with passengers services expected to begin in 2025.   

As TransPennine Express successfully operated their first electric train services between Manchester Victoria and Stalybridge, TRU marked yet another significant step towards a more dependable and environmentally friendly railway.

Innovative projects, like the new Electric Central Utility Plant (eCUP) at Dallas Fort Worth Internatioal Airport (DFW), demand an innovative approach. Brad Brown, President of Suffolk's Texas region, and his team in Dallas have been leading the charge on that front — they've applied more technology pilots to the DFW project than any other Suffolk jobsite in the country. Check out this article from Brad, which outlines the various solutions the team is leveraging to replace the airport's 50-year-old utility system.
