Top Priorities:
Natural gas replacement with biogas and/or hydrogen for heat and power generation.
Novel heat exchange technologies to improve thermal process efficiency and/or recovery of waste heat for reuse.
Transportation materials and equipment made from renewable energy sources, rather than petroleum-based or environmentally harmful materials.
Other Areas of Interest:
- Innovative on-site renewable energy solutions for manufacturing and logistics — including thermal and electric systems with cogeneration, energy storage, and clean alternatives to diesel generators (e.g., biodiesel).
- Small-scale waste-to-energy solutions for individual sites specifically food waste.
- Decarbonization of thermal loads in can manufacturing, including ovens.
- Use of 100% renewable electricity in high-impact processes:
- Electrolysis for alumina.
- Aluminum can sheet production
- Can manufacturing
- Bio-fuel trading support solutions.
- Low-carbon freezer and refrigerator solutions for retail applications.
- Innovative cooler and dry ventilation circulation solutions for malt silos.
