| History and Pitfalls of Carbon Sequestration  There are many paths toward sustainability. While many focus on moving to zero-carbon processes, such as using renewable energy, others look to mitigate existing emissions. Carbon capture and sequestration fall into this latter category. | Biofuels | Victor and Neste Partner to Reduce Private Jet Charter Emissions  Neste and Fly Victor, the on-demand private jet company, have formed a partnership which sets a new sustainability benchmark in business aviation. Starting June 29, Victor members can purchase Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel™ (SAF) for every private jet booking globally. This enables private jet charterers to reduce the carbon footprint of their private air travel in a credible and measurable way. | Green Fuels Hamburg Plans SAF Production Biomass | Emerson Helping Albioma Become a Fully Renewable Energy Provider  Global technology and software company Emerson has been selected by Albioma a French independent energy provider, to help transition its coal-fired Bois Rouge plant to 100% renewable energy. As part of Albioma’s wider mission to transition all of its existing fossil fuel plants to renewable energy, Emerson’s automation systems and software will enable the coal-fired power station to convert to biomass feedstock. | Electric/Hybrid New ESG charter commits Lotus to become first established sports car maker to go fully electric Delta launches SLIM 100 EV charger for space critical applications Glastonbury Festival lacks a conscience when it comes to EVs according to ZPN Energy boss Energy saving | ABB Collaborates with Microsoft on Energy Efficiency  ABB announced that Microsoft has joined its Energy Efficiency Movement. Launched in March 2021 by ABB, the #energyefficiencymovement is a multi-stakeholder initiative to raise awareness and spur action to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions to combat climate change. Companies are invited to join the movement and make a public pledge as a way of inspiring others to take action. Microsoft represents one of the largest corporate partners to join the initiative to date. | Hydrogen Companies Form JV for Production of Large-scale Hydrogen Electrolyzers Panorama | Does Digitization Actually Pay Off for Renewables?  Digitization as part of the net-zero transition is on everyone’s radar today. Scientists no longer need to defend the necessity of green economies. Governments and policy-makers recognize the need for acts regulating emissions, waste production, and fossil fuel development. Companies pledge to achieve net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases and switch to alternative energy sources. Summits are held, acts are signed, non-compliance fees are issued. | Climate Change Committee releases damning report assessing UK emissions reduction progress PV | New Jersey School District Enters Net Zero Revolution  Montville Township Public Schools in New Jersey is joining the net-zero revolution by installing solar modules on six schools in Morris County. Set to save almost $1 million in energy costs over the next 15 years, the SolarEdge DC-optimized systems are forecast to generate 1.84 MW of solar energy annually and will reduce carbon emissions by the equivalent of 1,500 tons of coal burned or 171 homes’ electricity use per year. | Norfolk completes construction of the largest solar farm in Nebraska Storage | Wärtsilä to Provide 100 MWh Energy Storage System in the UK  The technology group Wärtsilä will partner with low carbon energy company SSE to deliver a 50 MW / 100 MWh energy storage system in Salisbury, Wiltshire. The battery will be the first connected directly to the transmission network by SSE’s new solar and battery division and will support access to clean, reliable energy by balancing the intermittency of renewables. The order was booked to Wärtsilä’s order intake in April 2022 and the system is expected to become operational in September 2023. | NREL analysis highlights strategies beyond recycling solar and battery technologies Wind The Netherlands
