ABB has opened a new €20 million injection molding manufacturing site at Evergem, near Ghent in Belgium, to meet the growing demand for safe, smart and sustainable electrification solutions in Europe.

Illinois implemented a custom energy code for buildings based on the 2021 International Energy Conservation Code this year. The state joins 13 others that have adopted minimum energy codes based on the 2021 IECC or its equivalent, as well as the U.S. Dept. of Energy which has put in place similar requirements for newly built and retrofitted buildings owned by the federal government.

Advocates say the tool required under the new law should make energy saving programs by Dominion Energy and Appalachian Power more transparent and effective.

Infineon Technologies AG has unveiled the next milestone in semiconductor manufacturing technology. Infineon has reached a breakthrough in handling and processing the thinnest silicon power wafers ever manufactured, with a thickness of only 20 micrometers and a diameter of 300 millimeters, in a high-scale semiconductor fab.

Through a strategic research partnership focused on CERN’s cooling and ventilation systems, energy efficiency audits have helped to identify a savings potential of 17.4% across a total of 800 motors

Representatives from Dominion Energy South Carolina, Berkeley Electric Cooperative and Santee Cooper are providing their customers ways to save on their energy bills as October is Energy Awareness Month.

The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy of Korea has fully launched an energy efficiency rating system for electric vehicles, categorizing 278 models into five levels.

The city state is looking at greener energy sources and wants to make every aspect of data center energy consumption, from cooling to coding, more efficient.

The paper industry has become a part of the modern economies as it supplies everything from office supplies to packaging materials. And also, this industry is one of the most energy-consuming industries globally.

Saving energy directly increases profitability. However, it is sometimes overlooked in cost control. By benchmarking yourself, you can find your energy saving potential, which could add up to 30% of your total energy consumption in the plastics industry. A more detailed view at the machine-level of energy use could unlock a whole array of benefits.

The government also identified two tiers of support under the grant.

Solar energy is one of the most essential parts to achieve energy efficiency in Australia. It has proven to be a winning combination for people living in Australia because it has many advantages. Getting solar panels has become easier, cheaper, and more flexible recently. Many new solar systems work well for different types of homes and energy needs.

Energy conservation has become a trending topic all around the world, and Singapore’s industrial sector cannot stay away from this so easily as this nation puts so much weight on sustainability. What has Singapore done to conserve energy? From using less carbon-intensive fuels to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to switching to natural gas to generate electricity, their commitment is quite impressive! However, there are many other initiatives they can easily implement technologically if they want to make it a smart manufacturing grid. What is the energy strategy of Singapore?

Making motors more efficient is a more immediate solution that reduces energy consumption and cuts costs at the same time. The IEA has said that energy efficiency would provide a third of all emissions reductions in their Net Zero Emissions by 2050 scenario.

In the plastics industry, the dual goals of economic efficiency and energy conservation are critical for achieving a sustainable and cost-effective future. As the demand for streamlined and environmentally friendly production increases, plastics manufacturers are challenged to innovate while maintaining responsible production practices.

Investments in energy-saving programs are essential to help industries and workers build a more prosperous and sustainable future. The Government of Canada is committed to innovative energy management solutions for industry partners across the country.

Report concludes using reverse-cycle air conditioning instead of gas ducted heating could save households between $999 to $2,215 a year.

In South Korea, the revenue in the Energy Efficiency in Commercial Buildings Market is estimated to reach US$ XX Bn by 2024. It is anticipated that the revenue will experience a compound annual growth rate (CAGR 2024-2031).

Retrofitting buildings could create 1.3 million jobs by 2030 in areas like HVAC installation, but labor shortages persist, according to the agency’s scenario for reaching net-zero emissions by 2050.

RapidRate is an innovative tool that can estimate the energy efficiency performance of Australia’s 11 million residential properties.
