UNC Charlotte Energy Production & Infrastructure Center (EPIC)’s Post

This week, we were honored to host Minister Micky Adriaansens and other members of the Ministry of Economics and Climate at our cutting-edge experimental steam cracking furnace at ETCA. This occasion served as an excellent platform to showcase our achievements and emphasize the benefits of electrification, including enhanced #energyefficiency and the simultaneous elimination of both CO2 and NOX emissions. Because electrical furnaces do not generate combustion by-products, the furnace traditional convection section, where lower-grade energy is recovered from these combustion by-products, becomes unnecessary. The consensus is growing that electrification is the path forward for industries. #electrification holds great promise for a sustainable future, but it demands concerted efforts and innovation to fully realize its potential. Let’s continue working toward cleaner, more efficient industrial processes!   To learn more about the experimental steam cracking furnace, read our press release. You can watch more about Shell's R&D in industrial electrification on our webpage https://lnkd.in/gjpVJAET Mark Schmets, Yuri Sebregts , Frans Everts , Ferry Winter, Richard Cooper

ADI Analytics has a study available on alternative marine fuels markets, answering several questions including these and more: 🔎 What are the key regulatory, technology, and infrastructure drivers for alternative marine fuels? 🔎 How large is the global market for alternative marine fuels? How will it vary by region and fuel? 🔎 Which factors will drive adoption of marine fuel alternatives? 🔎 What are the key scenario signposts?

As Energy & Net Zero policy debates rumble on, our in-house Regulations Team have put together a handy snapshot summary of current policy developments in the non-domestic retail market, and the potential focuses of the major parties, ahead of the upcoming election ✍️Vanessa Mufandaidza

In May 2023, Vermont adopted updated interconnection rules. There were several positive developments for clean energy customers that IREC contributed to, including updating allowable “export controls.” Learn more about these updated interconnection rules + explore the rest of IREC’s recent regulatory impacts at https://lnkd.in/ge_uSeYJ!

Recently, the European Union (EU) announced its requirements for methane reduction regulation.  With these new stringent rules, its imperative to use the best and most accurate technology for detection and quantification. Proven by a third party,  Opgal's EyeCGas Multi with its built in quantification is the most effective tool to comply with the new regulations. Here is our EU performance envelope for the EyeCGas Multi.  

Massive thanks to those who have already completed the survey, if you haven't yet... take 10 minutes with a Friday morning cup of coffee/tea ☕ and help influence the future of UK regulations for clean fuels and the path to maritime decarbonisation: https://lnkd.in/etgWsr7i. We need to hear from those at the sharp end of the problem to build a realistic, data-driven picture of the challenges you're facing! #netzero #maritimedecarbonisation #cleanfuels #alternativefuels

In the second video of our four-part #AskSwagelok series focused on the differences between designing fluid systems for #hydrogen production and #OilandGas facilities, Chuck Hayes explains how proper product selection can improve #safety during hydrogen system operation and maintenance.

Kindly spare some moments to know why hydrogen systems require different components other than oil and gas applications.

Looking forward to join the great people at Benchmark to debate what Europe’s political shifts mean for the electric vehicle supply chain! ✅ We have a new competitiveness-focussed European Commission. ❓ The signals are good, but what’s needed in practice to tackle the headwinds facing European battery and materials investments, and restore confidence into Europe’s overall electric vehicle market?

🌍 EPRI operates at the forefront of the energy transformation, working alongside industry, academia, and government to better prepare society for today's energy challenges and tomorrow's opportunities. By amplifying the voices of our European members, we are thrilled to share insights from Tomas Zajic on the collaboration between ČEZ a.s. and EPRI. 💬 Zajic stated: "EPRI offers a large database of ‘know-how’ about development, operation, inspection, and failures." #EPRIMembers #EPRIInEurope #EnergyInnovation #EnergyResearch Vaclav Vyskocil
