Silicon Valley Bank Energy Efficiency Report: Key Sector TrendsSilicon Valley Bank
SVB's Energy Efficiency Report provides perspective on the key players and most compelling trends in the Energy sector. Topics covered include VC and government funding in the energy efficiency market; industry trends related to regulation, consumer demand and technology enhancements; and an overview of financing for energy companies.
In many ways, the electricity industry makes an unlikely candidate for disruption. Not much changed between the 1880s, when Thomas Edison began building power stations, and the start of the 21st century. Top business leaders rarely had to think about electricity. They got their electricity from the power plant, or the local utility, or the government, and had little say in how it was produced, delivered, or managed. Utility executives, for their part, could make and execute long-term plans with a great deal of security. Demand tended to rise along with the economy; natural monopolies were the norm.
No longer. Several coincident, significant transformations are causing a revolution in the way electricity — the vital fuel of global commerce and human comfort — is produced, distributed, stored, and marketed. A top-down, centralized system is devolving into one that is much more distributed and interactive. The mix of generation is shifting from high carbon to lower carbon, and, often, to no carbon. In many regions, the electricity business is transforming from a monopoly to a highly competitive arena.
The days of a procurement officer working alone to sign long-term energy contracts are drawing to a close. Same with an operations manager deciding to pursue an LED lighting retrofit. Or a sustainability director who enters into a PPA with a wind developer.
And it’s not because there’s no value in these pursuits. They each have immense worth. But they can be so much more transformative when they are managed as a cohesive strategy.

Energy Retrofits for Commercial and Public Buildings: Global MarketsReportLinker.com
Use this report to:Understand how the growth in public and private commercial construction is converging with a demand for environmentally clean and energy efficient buildings to create opportunities for various energy retrofit technologies worldwideIdentify emerging technologies that are likely to drive the energy retrofit industry and assess technologies that could compete with or replace existing ones for building applicationsLearn about enabling technologies for energy retrofit building applications, their commercial or developmental status, and how they will influence commercial prospects/demand for energy retrofit technologiesAssess the competitive environment in which engineering firms, architects, and manufacturers of materials and other products used in energy retrofit technologies must compete.IntroductionBuildings are a major source of energy consumption throughout the world. Governments view building energy retrofits as holding the opportunity to achieve their greenhouse gas reduction targets.The process of installing energy conservation devices and equipment in existing buildings is called energy retrofitting. This industry is extremely vast. Any equipment that can help in reducing the energy consumption of buildings falls under the purview of the energy retrofit industry.The four energy retrofit technologies examined in this study are:' Heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment' Energy efficient lighting and lighting design' Electricity sub-meters' Green roofsIntroductionEach of these technologies is a separate industry. Therefore, while these four technologies may be completely distinct from each other, they serve a common purpose: They are viable options for reducing energy consumption and energy use in buildings.Among the four energy retrofit technologies examined in this study, the HVAC segment has emerged as the largest market in the building retrofit industry.The energy retrofit industry is extremely dependent on the construction industry, which is dependent on the economy. The key factor that influences the purchase of energy retrofit equipment is the consequential energy cost savings.Energy retrofit technologies can be applicable to both the segments of the building industry, viz. residential and commercial buildings. According to Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS), commercial buildings include all buildings in which at least half the floor space is used for a purpose that is not residential, industrial, or agricultural. The definition of public buildings includes both federal and state buildings. Typically, buildings such as universities, schools, hospitals, and government offices fall under the definition of public buildings.BCC Research report provides information about energy retrofit technologies for building applications. It also determines how the growth of public buildings and private commercial buildings is likely to affect building energy consumption in different regions of the world.This report is useful to engineering firms, architects, manufacturers of materials and other products used in energy retrofit technologies, entrepreneurs, investors, venture capitalists, and other readers with a need to know where the market for energy technologies is headed in the next 5 years. The report's findings and conclusions should also be of interest to the energy research and policy communities.The information for this report has been collected through both primary and secondary research methodologies.

A transition towards a decarbonized and sustainable energy future will incorporate renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind. The intermittency of these renewable sources creates a substantial mismatch between energy produced and required. Energy storage plays an important role in balancing supply and demand and helps to create a more flexible and reliable electricity grid. If we want to source 100% of our electrical energy from renewables by 2050, significant investment in energy storage is necessary.
Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery is a rapidly developing and the future energy storage solution, the cost of Li-ion battery has seen a steady decline over the past years, this trend is expected to continue for the foreseeable time. A 78% reduction in the cost of Li-ion battery pack over the 2015 cost is expected by 2030. Consumers, in India particularly, are highly cost-sensitive. With the increasing affordability solar plus energy storage becomes a viable investment option while at the same time providing a certain degree of energy security and independence for the consumer.

The New Role of Data in the Changing Energy & Utilities LandscapeDenodo
Watch full webinar here: https://bit.ly/3PrxEx2
Energy companies - both producers and utilities - are facing a challenging and changing business and regulatory environment over the next decade or so. As governments around the world pledge to be 'net zero' by 2050, new regulations are putting pressure on energy companies to accelerate the move to renewable energy sources whilst at the same time gearing up for more widespread electrification as consumers move away from carbon fuels.
The growth of renewable energy sources has also changed the way that utilities manage demand response. The old way of bringing generating units (typically coal or gas-fueled generators) online for peak demand hours no longer works. The distributed utility infrastructure that is used today requires a lot more flexibility and planning to meet - and to shape - consumer demand.
At the heart of the energy company challenges is data. Data to better manage and optimize the generating resources. Data to better inform the consumers about their energy consumption. And data to deliver better services and new product offerings to those consumers.
In this webinar, we will look at how energy companies and utilities can liberate and democratize their data to better utilize the strategic data assets that they already own. We will look at how the Denodo Platform, powered by Data Virtualization, has helped energy companies around the world access real-time data to drive their operations and allow them to respond to the ever-changing business environment.

Diabetes is a rapidly and serious health problem in Pakistan. This chronic condition is associated with serious long-term complications, including higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Aggressive treatment of hypertension and hyperlipideamia can result in a substantial reduction in cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes 1. Consequently pharmacist-led diabetes cardiovascular risk (DCVR) clinics have been established in both primary and secondary care sites in NHS Lothian during the past five years. An audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery at the clinics was conducted in order to evaluate practice and to standardize the pharmacists’ documentation of outcomes. Pharmaceutical care issues (PCI) and patient details were collected both prospectively and retrospectively from three DCVR clinics. The PCI`s were categorized according to a triangularised system consisting of multiple categories. These were ‘checks’, ‘changes’ (‘change in drug therapy process’ and ‘change in drug therapy’), ‘drug therapy problems’ and ‘quality assurance descriptors’ (‘timer perspective’ and ‘degree of change’). A verified medication assessment tool (MAT) for patients with chronic cardiovascular disease was applied to the patients from one of the clinics. The tool was used to quantify PCI`s and pharmacist actions that were centered on implementing or enforcing clinical guideline standards. A database was developed to be used as an assessment tool and to standardize the documentation of achievement of outcomes. Feedback on the audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery and the database was received from the DCVR clinic pharmacist at a focus group meeting.
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

26. Energy Storage
Modeling
▪ Utilities should develop “new modeling tools and
new planning frameworks that allow for a more
complete evaluation of flexible resources, such as
energy storage."
▪ State-of-the-art modeling requires three critical
criteria to incorporate and solve for the complexities
of a renewables-focused electricity market:
1) sub-hourly dynamics consistent with observed and
forecast real-time prices, loads and renewable
production;
2) impacts of weather on renewable generation, load and
market prices;
3) imperfect foresight included in unit commitment
optimization.
