News & Updates

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations will offer companies based in Connecticut decarbonization grants. Their goal is to further equip the United States with a distinct advantage in low- and net-zero carbon manufacturing. Much of the funding for these grants comes from the Inflation Reduction Act. Furthermore, $500 million was drawn from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

The DOE states that industrial emissions account for about one-third of the nation’s carbon footprint. Therefore, there will be a particular focus on the industries with the most significant carbon footprint, where decarbonization technologies will have the highest impact on mitigating this footprint. Such industries include cement, steel, aluminum, and materials manufacturers that require high energy inputs and release significant amounts of carbon dioxide during production.

The projects these grants will fund will reduce greenhouse gas emissions, lower harmful air quality impacts, prioritize sustainability, and create good-paying jobs. Moreover, the projects must benefit their community. For this reason, all applicants must submit a community benefit plan for advancing diversity, inclusion, and accessibility. The ultimate goal is to build a clean, more equitable future for all. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations will provide companies that meet this criterion up to 50% of the cost of each project.

Applications for the program are now available. Learn more by visiting this Industrial Demonstrations Program Notice of Intent Informational Webinar.

What is Decarbonization?

Decarbonization is a process in which carbon dioxide emissions from the use of fossil fuels are phased out. It both refers to the process of removing carbon from the process chain and is also a term used to describe avoiding the combustion of fossil fuels. Decarbonization solutions include an increase in the use of solar and wind energy. Both of these are on track to make up more than three-quarters of the United State’s electricity generation. The end goal of decarbonization is to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide that is being released into the atmosphere. As such,  decarbonization technology is important for managing the global greenhouse gas problem. Decarbonization consulting includes implementing the latest decarbonization technology to further your company’s effort towards fewer emissions.

Decarbonization Consulting Strategies

As a decarbonization consulting firm, we offer your companies of all sizes sustainability solutions. Our decarbonization strategies include an increased utility load through sustainable decarbonization by unlocking the value via ratepayer savings. We do this with heat pumps, EVs, and other measures. We can design and determine the economic payback decarbonization of electricity using custom analytics for your market. Using this data, we can help you lead initiates to increase your load through program management and marketing. 

We use the most current decarbonization knowledge to meet you where you are on the journey towards fewer emissions. Moreover, we find a strategy that best suits your company and goals. Converting to a carbon-free economy will take time, but it’s a mission that we stand behind. Because we are such solid believers, we are willing to trade our services for first-year revenue on any account we increase. What does this mean for you?
