GALESBURG, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Power management company Eaton today announced its Twin Vortices Series (TVS®) technology has proven to be an integral component in hydrogen fuel cell modules, which benefit from the precise air flow control offered by the TVS unit to operate at peak efficiency. The TVS fuel cell blower is electrically driven, providing accurate and fast air control to enable rapid fuel cell voltage control for transient duty cycles.



Eaton’s TVS technology is known throughout the transportation industry for its supercharged internal combustion engine applications, but minor modifications have made the unit ideal for fuel cells.

To operate efficiently, fuel cell stacks need precisely controlled air and hydrogen flow. Fuel cells are composed of proton exchange membranes layered between a positive electrode (cathode) and a negative electrode (anode). Hydrogen is introduced to the anode, and oxygen from the surrounding air is directed to the cathode. Hydrogen molecules then break into protons and electrons due to an electrochemical reaction in the fuel cell catalyst, enabling the protons to travel through the membrane to the cathode.

The number of layers of proton exchange membranes dictates the amount of power each individual stack can produce, which subsequently means the more stacks a vehicle has the more power it produces.

Unlike the TVS supercharger, the TVS fuel cell blower is covered by a housing and directly mounted to an electric motor, which operates in a range of 300 – 450 volts direct current and has no pulley or front cover. The electric motor can be calibrated to operate at fewer than 14,000 revolutions per minute. The technology is also scalable across a broad range of pump displacements and can be adapted to fit an individual customer’s specifications.

Eaton is already supplying TVS units to several customers for use in hydrogen-powered buses, with plans for increased production going forward. The next step in the TVS fuel cell program is developing units that enable next-generation fuel cells, which will have greater power density, pressure ratios, longer operational lifespan and improved noise, vibration and harshness levels.

Additional information is available on Eaton’s TVS fuel cell technology.

Eaton’s mission is to improve the quality of life and the environment through the use of power management technologies and services. We provide sustainable solutions that help our customers effectively manage electrical, hydraulic, and mechanical power – more safely, more efficiently, and more reliably. Eaton’s 2019 revenues were $21.4 billion, and we sell products to customers in more than 175 countries. We have approximately 93,000 employees. For more information, visit www.eaton.com.

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Matador Resources Company (NYSE: MTDR) (“Matador” or the “Company”) today announced the results from the first four Boros wells completed and turned to sales in its Stateline asset area in Eddy County, New Mexico.


Initial Boros Well Results in the Stateline Asset Area

Matador is pleased today to announce the results from the first four Boros wells completed and turned to sales in the Company’s Stateline asset area in southeastern Eddy County, New Mexico, all of which are two-mile laterals. Matador acquired the 2,800 gross and net acres comprising its Stateline asset area in the September 2018 Bureau of Land Management lease sale, and these are the first four of 13 Boros wells the Company has drilled and completed on the eastern portion of this leasehold. Matador remains on track to turn all of the remaining Boros wells to sales over the next two weeks as originally planned and previously announced.

The following table highlights the 24-hour initial potential (“IP”) test results from the first four Boros wells.

Matador is very pleased with these strong IP test results from the first four Boros wells. The IP test results from the Boros #215H, #216H and #217H wells are three of the top four IP test results that Matador has achieved to date for wells completed and turned to sales in the Wolfcamp A-Lower formation throughout the Delaware Basin. In fact, the Boros #215H test result is the best IP test result that Matador has achieved for the Wolfcamp A-Lower formation and is among the very highest IP test results that Matador has achieved for any formation in the Delaware Basin. The Boros #201H test result is also among the top five IP test results that Matador has achieved for wells completed and turned to sales in the Wolfcamp A-XY formation. Matador has a 100% working interest and an 87.5% net revenue interest in these Stateline asset area wells.

In addition, these 24-hour IP test results were recorded at very high flowing casing pressures of approximately 3,100 pounds per square inch (“psi”) for the Boros #201H well and between 3,500 and 3,800 psi for each of the Wolfcamp A-Lower completions, further indicating the strong productivity of these wells. As noted above, Matador expects to have all of the remaining Boros wells on-line over the next two weeks, and in fact, several additional wells have already been placed on production and are currently cleaning up and beginning to produce oil and natural gas. Matador currently estimates that it has at least 75 additional wells to drill in the Stateline asset area, including the 13 Voni wells currently being drilled on the western portion of this leasehold.

All four Boros wells highlighted in this release are currently producing at restricted flow rates through the Company’s newly constructed production facilities in the Stateline asset area, and all oil, natural gas and water from these wells is being gathered via pipeline. With the addition of these wells to the gathering systems owned by San Mateo, Matador’s 51% owned midstream affiliate, Matador currently has approximately 75% of its gross operated oil production and approximately 98% of its gross operated water production gathered via pipeline in the Delaware Basin. The Company’s gross operated oil production gathered via pipeline in the Delaware Basin has increased to approximately 75% today from 55% in 2019 and 16% in 2018. Similarly, Matador’s gross operated water production gathered via pipeline in the Delaware Basin has increased to approximately 98% today from 78% in 2019 and 71% in 2018.

Matador is also very pleased to report that the costs to drill and complete all 13 Boros wells in the Stateline asset area averaged just under $800 per completed lateral foot, saving more than 20% in costs as compared to Matador’s original estimates. The drilling and completion costs for the three shallowest wells, one Avalon completion and two Second Bone Spring completions, averaged approximately $725 per completed lateral foot. These costs are among the lowest drilling and completion costs per lateral foot that Matador has achieved to date in the Delaware Basin. The economic returns from all these wells should be significantly enhanced by the lower well costs. Furthermore, these results, along with numerous others that Matador has achieved in 2020, including from the Rodney Robinson and Ray State wells, continue to demonstrate the improved capital efficiency the Company has achieved through its successful transition from drilling and completing one-mile laterals to drilling and completing two-mile or longer laterals in the Delaware Basin.

Management Comments

Joseph Wm. Foran, Matador’s Chairman and CEO, commented, “We are very excited and gratified by the strong results from our first four Boros wells in the Stateline asset area, including our record Wolfcamp A-Lower IP test results on the Boros #215H, #216H and #217H wells. We look forward to putting the remaining Boros wells drilled and completed throughout 2020 on production and reporting those results to the markets in the upcoming weeks. We are, of course, particularly pleased by the drilling and completion costs achieved on these wells at under $800 per completed lateral foot, which were well below our expectations when we began drilling these wells. With the 13 Boros wells turned to sales, we are expecting a significant increase in our oil and natural gas production during the fourth quarter of 2020 and are also on track to be free cash flow positive in the fourth quarter, a major milestone.

The Board and I wish to thank and compliment all of the members of our Stateline asset team, as well as our production teams in the field, for all their planning, innovation and hard work over the past two years to achieve first production from the Stateline asset area. This has truly been a team effort, and we are very proud of our geologic, reservoir, land, operations and midstream staff for the significant value each of these groups has individually created in the Stateline asset area through their technical expertise and strong execution. These wells are expected to add significantly to the overall value of Matador’s reserves and to the value of Matador’s midstream affiliate, San Mateo, going forward.”

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tula Technology, Inc., a tech leader in improving propulsion efficiency and reducing emissions in passenger cars and commercial vehicles, announced its participation and presentation on its diesel Dynamic Skip Fire (dDSF™) technology at the 4th Future Diesel Powertrain Summit China 2020 on September 24-25, 2020 in Shanghai, China. Dr. Ian Ren, China Business Development, will present “Tula’s Dynamic Skip Fire Optimally Reduces Both NOx and CO2 Simultaneously” at 3:55 p.m. China Standard Time on Friday, September 25. In addition to providing an overview of dDSF technology, the presentation will address the Cummins-Tula 15L Heavy-Duty dDSF Project as well as the FEV-Tula 2.3L dDSF Simulation Project.


As demonstrated through rigorous testing, Tula’s dDSF technology reduces tailpipe NOx emissions by up to 66% while also reducing CO2 emissions by up to 4%. Importantly, dDSF is able to combine improved tailpipe emissions while simultaneously reducing fuel consumption, thus combining two critical objectives that have previously competed against each other.

dDSF technology enables manufacturers of commercial vehicles to meet the increasingly stringent emissions regulations in China. “We’re thrilled to present at the 4th Future Diesel Powertrain Summit in Shanghai and to work with commercial vehicle manufacturers to reduce NOx and CO2 emissions to ensure compliance with tighter restrictions and to reduce the environmental impact of commercial trucks. We believe that dDSF is the most cost-effective solution to increase efficiency and reduce emissions,” said R. Scott Bailey, president and CEO of Tula Technology.

FREMONT, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: SEDG) (“SolarEdge”) today announced its intention to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $500 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”) in a private offering (the “Offering”) to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In connection with the Offering, SolarEdge expects to grant the initial purchasers of the Notes a 13-day option to purchase up to an additional $75 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes on the same terms and conditions.

The final terms of the Notes, including the initial conversion price, interest rate and certain other terms, will be determined at the time of pricing of the Offering. When issued, the Notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of SolarEdge. The Notes will mature on September 15, 2025, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding June 15, 2025, the Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders of the Notes only upon the satisfaction of specified conditions and during certain periods.

The Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of common stock of SolarEdge or a combination thereof, with the form of consideration to be determined at SolarEdge’s election. The Notes will not be redeemable prior to their maturity date.

SolarEdge intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes.

The Notes will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The offer and sale of the Notes and any shares of common stock of SolarEdge issuable upon conversion of the Notes, if any, have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and unless so registered, the Notes and such shares, if any, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any offer or sale of, the Notes (or any shares of common stock of SolarEdge issuable upon conversion of the Notes) in any state or jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification thereof under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

Market is driven by growth of smart home devices as well as increased levels of home improvement spending resulting from COVID-19’s shelter in place orders


BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#DataAnalytics--A new report from Guidehouse Insights analyzes the global market for residential energy management (REM) solutions, providing global market forecasts, segmented by revenue, shipments, and region, through 2029.

The residential energy management system (REMS) market is undergoing rapid expansion and transformation. New digital and software approaches are changing behavioral demand side management (DSM) and home energy management solutions, giving way to healthy growth for the worldwide REM market during the next decade. Click to tweet: According to a new report from @WeAreGHInsights, global REM solutions revenue is projected to grow from $6.0 billion in 2020 to $16.8 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.2%.

“Several key drivers are advancing the REM market, including the growth of the smart home device market as well as increased levels of home improvement spending resulting from COVID-19’s shelter in place orders,” says Daniel Talero, research analyst with Guidehouse Insights. “Home energy management hardware, such as smart thermostats and smart lighting, are gaining traction among residential customers as REM assets and as elements of the smart home.”

According to the report, data analytics applications in REM solutions are also evolving. For example, improved disaggregation of data on home energy use is creating cost savings for residential customers and improved customer engagement opportunities for utilities. Although large technology companies have opened other energy data gathering channels via voice assistants such as Amazon’s Alexa and Google Home, a rich startup ecosystem has emerged to engage customers with app-, panel-, and sensor-based REM service interfaces.

The report, Market Data: Residential Energy Management Systems, analyzes the global market for REM solutions, with a focus on four technology areas: behavioral DSM solutions, REM hardware, REM software, and REM services. The study provides an analysis of the market issues, including drivers and barriers, associated with REMSs. Global market forecasts, segmented by revenue, shipments, and region, extend through 2029. An executive summary of the report is available for free download on the Guidehouse Insights website.

ALBERT LEA, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Renewable Energy Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: REGI) broke ground on Monday for a single wind turbine that will provide power to the company’s biorefinery in Albert Lea, Minnesota. This project will provide locally sourced, clean electrical power, lowering the carbon footprint of the biodiesel plant.



Local community members, elected officials and employees celebrated the project Monday marking a first-of-its kind project for the company.

“We are committed to reducing our carbon footprint by producing cleaner burning fuels. The addition of the wind turbine will make a process that already had low carbon output even more sustainable,” said Cynthia “CJ” Warner, President and CEO of Renewable Energy Group. “We are continuously looking for innovative approaches to improve our facilities, and this project is no exception.”

The project, to be constructed and operated by Minnesota-based Juhl Energy, will save approximately 68,000 tons of carbon dioxide over the first 10 years, displacing predominantly fossil fuel-based electricity. This is the equivalent of greenhouse gas emissions from 168 million miles driven by an average passenger vehicle.

“This project is a great example of locally sourced distributed renewable energy and we’re excited that electricity produced from the wind will directly lead to lower carbon gallons of biodiesel being produced by REG,” said Clay Norrbom, Managing Director of Juhl Energy. “Juhl and REG have appreciated working with the many people who have made the project possible, including local landowners, city, township, and county officials, Freeborn Mower Rural Electric Coop, Dairyland Power Cooperative and Faith Technologies.”

The single wind turbine will be located north and west of the REG Albert Lea biodiesel plant. The site selection was made based on REG’s desire to limit the impact of sound and shadow flicker to the surrounding residents.

“Using wind-generated electrical energy to convert agricultural products into biodiesel is a great way to improve the plant’s environmental footprint and advance our renewable energy goals for the state,” Agriculture Commissioner Thom Petersen said. “We’re proud that Minnesota continues to be a leader in biofuels and clean energy.”

In 2019, REG produced 495 million gallons of cleaner fuel delivering over 4.2 million metric tons of carbon reduction.

About Renewable Energy Group

Renewable Energy Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: REGI) is leading the energy industry's transition to sustainability by transforming renewable resources into high-quality, cleaner fuels. REG is North America’s largest producer of biodiesel and an industry leading producer of renewable diesel.

New Funding to Expand the Company's Pay-As-You-Go Solar Financing Business, Backed by Leading Investors CDC Group, FMO, Norfund, and ARCH Emerging Markets Partners

NAIROBI, Kenya--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#ARCHEmerging--Greenlight Planet Inc., the largest provider of solar-powered home energy products in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, has secured $90 million in new funding to expand its Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG) solar consumer financing business and consolidate its debt portfolio. Akira Partners and Orrick Herrington & Sutcliffe advised Greenlight Planet.


Under its Sun King brand, Greenlight Planet operates the largest direct-to-consumer PAYG solar distribution and service network in the world, having delivered over 1.3 million PAYG solar products to date in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Nigeria, expanding at a rate of over 65,000 new rooftop solar installations per month. The company employs 1,250 full-time staff worldwide, and over 5,500 sales agents, 30% of whom are women, across areas of sub-Saharan Africa suffering from high levels of unemployment.

The new debt and equity investments were provided by European development finance institutions CDC Group, FMO, and Norfund, along with impact investors ResponsAbility, SIMA Funds, Symbiotics, Global Partnerships, and private equity firm ARCH Emerging Markets Partners’ Africa Renewable Power Fund. Of the total $90 million in committed funding, $69 million has been disbursed to the company, with the balance to be drawn down as the company delivers additional solar-powered home energy systems, with end-consumer financing, to homes in Africa.

Sun King solar products include home lighting, mobile phone chargers, radios, televisions, and fans, as well as the solar panels and batteries to power these appliances. During the global COVID-19 pandemic, such solar-powered home energy systems have proven all the more essential to families spending more time at home. Families depend on Sun King energy access and appliances for light, communication, entertainment, and access to news and information.

Greenlight Planet’s Sun King solar-powered home energy systems have a profound social impact for off-grid families around the world. Sixty million individuals across 65 countries have used them to access clean, renewable energy. This access to energy increases the time children spend studying, increases productivity for small businesses, and reduces spending on old-fashioned energy products. Sun King products have saved over $3.4 billion on fossil-fuel-based energy costs, reducing global greenhouse gas emissions by more than 14 million metric tons.

T. Patrick Walsh, Co-founder and CEO of Greenlight Planet added, “Greenlight Planet’s goal is to bring affordable, clean energy to every under-electrified household that needs it. After a decade of honing our solar technology and our solar distribution, installation, and service strategy, we are now jumping the last hurdle to solve this global challenge, that being financial inclusion. We are expanding access to consumer financing, making basic solar power available to all people, at a cost as low as $0.15 per day. We are delighted to work with CDC, Norfund, FMO, ResponsAbility, SIMA Funds, Symbiotics, Global Partnerships and ARCH to expand access to finance and access to energy.”

Geoffrey Manley, Director and Head of Energy Access and Efficiency at CDC Group added, “Our financing of Greenlight Planet provides our team with a great opportunity to support a company that is creating jobs and taking meaningful strides to fight climate change. We’re thrilled that our commitment promotes the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, helping to facilitate economic development across the African continent.”

William Barry, Managing Director at ARCH Africa Renewable Power Fund (ARPF) added, “ARCH ARPF is delighted to support Greenlight Planet’s continued growth as it delivers on its mandate to expand energy access across sub-Saharan Africa. Greenlight's global market leadership in the off-grid solar sector positions the company strongly within ARPF’s expanding off-grid renewable energy portfolio, complementing our existing utility-scale, independent-power-producer development pipeline.”
