Are Utilities Missing Out on the Decarbonization Potential of Renewable Natural Gas? Renewable natural gas (RNG) is emerging as an increasingly viable solution for moving toward clean energy. RNG is one potential beneficial use of biogas, the largely methane-based...
An energy management plan is a strategic opportunity to outline steps to manage and optimize a site’s energy usage. The plan is also a chance for organizations to take greater control of their operational costs, resiliency in the face of energy outages, and a more...
The Building Electrification Myth: A Cost Case for Residential Consumers Natural gas, propane and other fossil fuels used in buildings for space heating, hot water heating, cooking, clothes dryers, and the like account for about 25% of all greenhouse gas (GHG)...
California’s Low Carbon Fuel Standards (LCFS) program is working to decrease the carbon intensity of the state’s transportation fuel pool, but it relies on accurate data monitoring, reporting, and verification to meet its goals. This year marks the first year that...
Due to overwhelming success of renewable generation (primarily wind and solar) installations in the past decade, electric utilities are now faced with highly variable energy outputs causing large fluctuations within their grid. Variation is largely dependent on the...
Problem: Many companies use more energy than necessary because energy efficiency is not integrated into daily management practices. Solution: Strategic energy management (SEM) is a long-term approach to energy efficiency that includes setting goals, tracking progress,...
