Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) now powering Kohler mission-critical generators and delivering significant carbon savings
Article
Kohler Power Systems has announced that its entire mission-critical generator range is compatible with Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) - marking a significant breakthrough in the usage of alternative fuels in backup power. No adaptations to the installed generators will be required, allowing for the immediate rollout of renewable fuel to all customers seeking to reduce their carbon footprint.
The solar-powered wells reduce fuel costs and allow future farm expansion.
Press Release
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y., July 12, 2022 /3BL Media/ -Pitney Meadows Community Farm, Inc. (PMCF) recently added new solar-powered wells and retrofitted existing wells to allow the farm to expand, while reducing its environmental impact thanks to a grant of nearly $50,000 from Green Mountain Energy Sun Club.
MEMPHIS, Tenn., July 21, 2022 /3BL Media/ – FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX) recently announced it has received its first 150 electric delivery vehicles from BrightDrop, the technology startup from General Motors (GM) decarbonizing last-mile delivery.
This marks a critical milestone for FedEx as the company plans to transform its entire parcel pickup and delivery (PUD) fleet to all-electric, zero-tailpipe emissions by 2040, and comes just months after BrightDrop’s commercialization of the Zevo 600 as the fastest vehicle to market in GM’s history.

Priya Rajendran has a curious mind, and so far, she’s used it to lead high-performing teams developing complex software solutions for some of the world’s best-known companies, including PayPal, Target and Ford. When Baker Hughes came knocking with a job offer, “I wasn’t very familiar with the oil and gas industry,” she says. “But when I saw the problems that Baker Hughes is solving and how interesting and complex industrial operations are, the engineer in me wanted to come here and get involved.”

Building energy-efficient habits starts with breaking some of the bad ones. Here are tips on how to break some common energy-wasting habits to help set you on the path to potential energy (and money) savings.
Standing in front of an open fridge
We open our refrigerators an average of 33 times per day, according to ENERGY STAR. So limiting your time browsing the fridge will help save energy by preventing it from draining more power to maintain the cold temperature setting.
Wind and solar electricity generation is good for many reasons, but intermittency is a persistent challenge. There are multiple solutions to that challenge, but the most important one is figuring out how to cost-effectively store solar and wind energy. Lithium ion batteries may be the best way to do that currently, but I’ll be keeping an eye on a couple other battery types that could unlock grid storage at scale.
