Funding Sustainable Rural Electrification Projects in NigeriaEnergy Access x Agricultural Productivity: The Federal Government's Rural Electrification Fund (REF) is designed to: 1️⃣ Achieve more equitable regional access to electricity. 2️⃣ Maximize the economic, social and environmental benefits of rural electrification subsidies. 3️⃣ Promote the expansion of the grid and the development of off-grid electrification. 4️⃣ Stimulate innovative approaches to rural electrification, provided that no part of the REF shall be used as subsidies for consumption. While the 1st REF Call delivered on 12 solar mini-grids nationwide, the implementation of the 2nd REF Call by the REA is ongoing, to deliver 51 additional solar mini-grids nationwide upon completion. #EnergyAccess #EnergySecurity #SDG7 #REA #REF

#GlobalInvestment in #Hydrogen infrastructure is rising and, along with the growth of low-carbon energy (LCE), demand for the #WaterSupply needed to generate the LCE is also expected to intensify. 💰💦 Black & Veatch's new eBook explores four key water supply considerations for developers looking to plan sustainable and equitable low-carbon hydrogen production #InfrastructureProjects.

This session will inform governments, private developers, and investors how Article 6 can offer large-scale upfront concessional finance to clean energy projects, including grid infrastructure, generation, biogas, clean cooking, NBS, and others. “Article 6 investment” - a new climate finance mechanism developed by academics at Harvard University Pilots: Article 6 investment to fund transmission, distribution, and electrification in East Africa Workshop Q&A Ely Sandler Seagrass

Join NORESCO’s own Mohammad Dabbagh, Ph.D., at the IBPSA-USA SimBuild conference in Denver, where he will present “Developing Single Family Prototype Models for California.” Co-written with colleague Rahul Athalye, the paper highlights the results of NORESCO’s work creating a unified set of single-family prototype models to analyze the impact of efficiency, renewable, electrification and decarbonization measures across all 16 of California’s climate zones. This unified set of prototype models will enable codes, standards and incentive program analysis to be harmonized across policymaking agencies within California. #decarbonization #renewableenergy #electrification #codesandstandards

Denmark accelerates decarbonization through district energy 🏙 Leveraging district energy can be an important step for a more sustainable future - also for educational institutions. The Danish District Energy Advisory (DDEA) recently hosted a webinar in collaboration with Second Nature exploring the role of district energy in advancing decarbonization efforts. The focus was on the challenges universities face with aging infrastructure and how Danish district energy solutions offer a blueprint for sustainable campus master planning. The webinar featured speakers including Laura Kjær from the Energistyrelsen, Lars Gullev from VEKS, as well as Rob Neimeier and John Flørning from Ramboll. These experts shared planning strategies and presented showcases on the successful shift from traditional steam-based systems to modern, efficient hot water solutions. Thank you to the speakers and participants for a productive session filled with valuable learnings and discussions! If you missed the webinar but are interested in how district energy accelerates decarbonization efforts on your campus or community, feel free to reach out to Max Lauretta or Gustav Winding for more information and watch the recording of the webinar here: https://lnkd.in/dvRYnatF Martine Gram Barbry | Karina Bech | The Trade Council of Denmark in North America - Denmark in Canada #Decarbonization #Sustainability #DistrictEnergy #RenewableEnergy #CampusSustainability

We at Arbo envision a future where incumbent infrastructure can be leveraged to provide new services with a reduced carbon footprint. The DOE's recently announced Appalachian, Gulf Coast, Midwest, and Hartland hubs will all produce blue #hydrogen (steam reformation of natural gas combined with carbon capture and storage technologies), and as the map shows, a substantial regional footprint of existing #energy storage and #pipelines was a major factor.

📢The EEF is honoured to welcome Energy Commissioner Kadri Simson during the first plenary session of the new parliamentary term. The discussion will be an opportunity to look back at the #developments, #challenges and #opportunities of the past five years. Commissioner Simson will also reflect on the #futureoutlook of #EUenergypolicy, to start the legislature with an #opendialogue among public and private stakeholders. EEF Members, don’t miss this chance to share ideas and debate! [⬇️Link below in the comments⬇️] #EEF_EnergyDebate #EUenergypolicy #newparliamentaryterm #pastachievements #futureoutlook

Our research offers significant and timely insights for accelerating the clean energy transition, while highlighting the need for better strategies to gain and increase social support for RETs." #BehaviouralEconomics #AcademicResearch #GreenEnergy #RenewableEnergy #SustainableEnergy #BehaviouralScience #PublicPolicy
