Business Wire News

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "South Africa Solar Power Market Outlook to 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


In the last decade, solar power capacity has grown tremendously to become the fastest-growing source of renewable energy in the world. However, in 2019, around 109 GW of new solar PV capacity was added worldwide, about the same as in 2018. The rapid installations were primarily due to policy support and a sharp decline in technology costs and growing environmental concerns.

However, with the economic downturn induced by the outbreak of Covid-19, demand from the residential PV segment will be severely affected due to the financial uncertainty faced by the customers. Commercial and industrial installations are expected to be negatively affected as discretionary spending will be delayed, and preserving short-term cash flow will become a priority. Further, in the utility segment, supply chain disruptions and weaker investment will lead to delays in project commissioning.

According to this report, despite the slowdown expected in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic's challenges, the outlook for solar remains strong in the medium term, and the market is expected to expand during the forecast period as the cost of generation from solar PV is increasingly becoming cheaper than its alternatives.

The South Africa Solar Power Market Outlook report provides a comprehensive analysis on the historical development, the current state of solar power installation scenario, and its outlook. Most of the insights in the report are derived from proprietary databases, and offerings. The insights include but are not limited to the market data, installation data and capacity additions data, policies and regulations, project data, company profiles, and competitive landscape analysis.

The report covers market dynamics, growth potential of the photovoltaic (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP) markets, economic trends, and investment and financing scenario in South Africa. Furthermore, the report looks at the current state and assesses the potential of residential, non-residential, and utility-scale solar PV deployment.

Return to work, school demand high for clean air solutions as public health officials caution Americans to prepare to live with COVID-19 virus.

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aggreko plc, today announced it has launched Aggreko Clean Air, a multi-solution approach to quickly and cost-effectively address air quality issues for facilities that must implement health and safety measures in temporary or permanent structures where people need to gather.


Formulated to help employers, community response teams and event producers meet new air quality guidelines, Aggreko Clean Air solutions builds on the company’s 30-plus years of specialized experience and expertise. The international company provides temporary, rental cooling, heating, power and dehumidification for disaster response, industrial operations where air quality has high consequences, and the world’s largest and most watched sporting, music, political and leisure events.

In recent news interviews, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, cautioned Americans that he believes “we will never eradicate the virus” but can manage it with combined efforts, including proactive health and safety measures. The Centers for Disease Control and ASHRAE, the global society for HVAC air quality and sustainability, recently issued health and safety guidelines for facilities managers to improve the air quality in enclosures, including the need to:

  • increase the percentage of outdoor air that circulates into the cooling and ventilation system,
  • increase ventilation rates, or “air changes” per hour, and
  • introduce mechanical support for return air.

Because Aggreko routinely mobilizes in urgent situations to provide engineered solutions for air quality in some of the most extreme conditions, we realized our expertise and experience could make a meaningful difference in helping American businesses and communities begin to function again with less fear of indoor air contamination,” said Charley Royce, Managing Director for Aggreko North America.

There is no responsible DIY version of a COVID-response clean air solution, so facilities owners and operators need reliable solutions that can be implemented immediately without capital investment – and that come with mechanical engineering expertise and maintenance crew support they don’t have,” he explained.

Steve Birtch, business development manager for Aggreko manufacturing, food and beverage and pharmaceutical clients, added: “Facility managers who must respond to the new guidelines in addition to the many other demands on them need proven expertise to meet these air quality guidelines, especially since no one-size-fits-all solution exists that’s appropriate for every structure. A temporary tent for hospital beds, a university dining hall, a pharmaceutical manufacturing site and a food processing plant are all unique and complex operations. Each facility or tent requires a custom solution that considers the function to occur in that facility, existing systems that must integrate, site location, duration of operation, ambient conditions, and the potential risks involved if there’s a failure to manage air quality.

The Aggreko Clean Air solutions engineering teams include trained technicians experienced in installing and maintaining temporary air systems in a variety of settings and situations – expertise facilities managers and staffs do not typically have onsite.

Clean air solutions involve more than plug-and-play,” explained Gary Meador, Aggreko Director of Events, who leads teams to power, heat and cool every aspect of many of the world’s largest events. “Managing and maintaining many of these air filtering and scrubbing solutions requires technicians well trained not only install, but to prevent contamination or improper disposal of filters, parts and supplies during maintenance. Plus, these clean air solutions need the benefit of Aggreko’s remote monitoring to ensure any issues are addressed and the systems are consistently performing as intended.”

Response to Aggreko Clean Air solutions from the company’s existing customers across the US has been overwhelmingly positive. “We already have systems in place at university campuses and pre-installation planning underway with customers in many industries,” Royce said. “The need is great, and we have spent a great deal of time making presentations to trade groups and clients to help educate people on their options to comply with guidelines and keep people safe.”

To learn more about Aggreko Clean Air, visit Aggreko.com/CleanAir or call 833-670-5794.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Middle-East Wireline Services Market - Growth, Trends, and Forecasts (2020 - 2025)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


The oil and gas well logging services market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.62% during the forecast period.

Factors, such as increasing demand for oil and natural gas and increasing investments in the upstream oil and gas sectors across the region, are expected to drive the number of exploration and production activities, thereby driving the wireline services market during the forecast period.

However, the crude oil prices have been highly volatile between 2019 and the start of 2020, fluctuating between USD 60 per barrel and USD 25 per barrel by the start of 2020. This volatility of oil prices remains a growing concern for the upstream industry. Hence, this is expected to hinder the market during the forecast period.

Companies Mentioned

  • Schlumberger Limited
  • Halliburton Company
  • Baker Hughes Company
  • Expro Group
  • ADES International
  • OilServ FZCO

Key Market Trends

Offshore to Dominate the Market

  • The offshore oil and gas drilling sector had been subdued in the past few years, mainly due to the crude oil price being lower than the breakeven price of several offshore oil and gas fields. As a result, the demand in the oil and gas wireline services market was negatively impacted.
  • The Brent crude oil price started showing signs of improvement after mid-2016 and remained well above USD 60 per barrel throughout 2018. This, coupled with the cost reduction program of upstream oil and gas companies, resulted in gaining the confidence of investors for final investment decisions for projects, which got canceled during the low commodity price environment.
  • For instance, in May 2019, Dana announced that it had commenced the drilling operations at its Merak-1 well, offshore Egypt, located in the North El Arish concession, also known as Block 6. This block is in the Eastern Mediterranean Basin, where other world-class giant natural gas discoveries have been made in recent years.
  • However, on the flip side, in the early 2020, the oil prices got severely affected by the several OPEC deal cancellation and excessive crude oil and gas flow in the international market. Which is expected to slow down the investment in both offshore and onshore region.

Saudi Arabia to Dominate the Market

  • The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the biggest global oil producers, with the production of 12.3 million barrels per day in 2018.
  • The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia holds the second-largest proven oil reserves in the world after Venezuela. Saudi Aramco, the country's largest oil and gas company, is continuously engaged in exploration and development, in order to compensate for declining fields elsewhere.
  • The crude oil production rate has been consistent in Saudi Arabia, even during the distressful period in the industry, when crude oil prices plunged to a very low level in recent years.
  • Further, oil and gas drilling activity in Saudi Arabia is anticipated to increase on account of government policy to drive the oil and gas production in the country. The policy to drive upstream activity will likely promulgate the oil and gas wireline services market in the near future.
  • For instance, in February 2019, ADES International, an oil and gas drilling and production company, received two onshore drilling contracts in Saudi Arabia worth USD 150 million. Each secured contract has a tenure of seven years, with five fixed years and two years of optional terms.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Last Friday, Eagle LNG Partners (Eagle LNG) celebrated the 100th bunkering event of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from its Talleyrand LNG Bunker Station, located at Jacksonville Port Authority (JAXPORT), with Crowley Maritime (Crowley). Eagle LNG is proud of this accomplishment having delivered on its weekly LNG bunkering commitment regardless of COVID-19 constraints or shipping challenges.



“Since March, our operations staff have continued working with Crowley’s ship management teams to maintain safe bunkering of their ships, MV Taíno and MV El Coquí, while adhering to public health guidelines. This is a testament to the operating procedures we developed together in the spirit of partnership to keep cargo moving,” reports Sean Lalani, president of Eagle LNG. With multiple layers of safety and environmental precautions in place, we have safely surpassed 100 bunkering events. Eagle LNG is proud of the safety practices jointly created with the U.S. Coast Guard Sector Jacksonville, the Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department, Crowley and JAXPORT – practices that are now a standard for others in the LNG industry. LNG has been shown to be both safe and reliable, in addition to being the best fuel solution to deliver environmental performance and cost savings. We look forward to serving the maritime industry throughout the country with clean burning, low-cost, U.S. LNG and bringing these remarkable benefits to countries in the Caribbean basin.”

Eagle LNG Talleyrand, which provides safe and reliable on-site storage for over 500,000 gallons of LNG, has successfully delivered over 30 million gallons or almost 50,000 metric tons over the last 100 bunkering activities to these first-in-class ships. The facility is the first of its kind in North America to provide shoreside storage and bunkering equipment to deliver the cleaner energy source for the Commitment Class, combination container/roll-on roll-off (ConRo) ships, which provide ocean transportation of dry, refrigerated and vehicle cargoes under the Jones Act.

With Eagle LNG’s proximal location to the Caribbean basin and those countries increasing use of LNG for power generation, together with one of our production locations in the Southeastern U.S. meeting a growing demand for LNG as a transportation fuel, and with our many strategic partnerships, Eagle LNG continues to create new U.S. trade opportunities adding jobs and stimulating economic development for Northeast Florida and the surrounding region, as well as spurring economic activity and jobs throughout the Caribbean basin.

Eagle LNG’s Maxville LNG Facility, located about 20 miles west of downtown Jacksonville, offers 1 million LNG-gallons of storage for daily transfers by truck to Talleyrand assuring Crowley’s weekly fuel supply. Eagle LNG is also supplying LNG to ISO tank containers for distribution into the Caribbean for power and industrial users.

“This milestone represents the result of collaboration, hard work and dedication to safety and reliability of our mariners, the men and women of Crowley, Eagle LNG, VT Halter Marine, U.S. Coast Guard, JAXPORT and the Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department,” said Crowley Vice President Cole Cosgrove, head of the global ship management group. “We committed ourselves to ensuring these ships and our communities can leverage the benefits of cleaner energy and maximize service to our customers and partners. The achievement today signifies the ongoing commitment to long-term, environmentally sustainable ocean shipping between the U.S. mainland and Puerto Rico.”

It is important to recognize that JAXPORT, more than a decade ago, began exploring LNG bunkering for the U.S. East Coast. JAXPORT has always been welcoming of bunkering innovations and now receives inquiries from Ports and shippers around the globe asking them to share their success story. By being amongst the first to work with LNG providers, shippers and others for the future of this environmentally friendly fuel that meets International Maritime Organization (IMO) 2020 standards to reduce marine emissions in international waters, JAXPORT today is recognized as a worldwide leader in provisioning ships powered by LNG.

“With more than a billion dollars in LNG investments in the Northeast Florida region, JAXPORT partners are pioneers in the use of LNG as a clean fuel and a cargo type,” said JAXPORT CEO Eric Green. “As the use of LNG expands globally, our community continues to benefit from the environmental advantages, new business, jobs and other opportunities that come with being a global leader in the clean fuel revolution.”

Eagle LNG is also moving forward on a new larger, on-water liquefaction plant and terminal in Jacksonville, the Jacksonville LNG Export Facility, capable of producing 1.0 MTPA with 45,000 m3 or almost 12 million gallons of storage. “With an additional investment of ~$500 million to build the new export facility plus other planned expansions across the U.S. and in the Caribbean basin, Eagle LNG is committed to meeting the demand for small-scale LNG in the region plus the ever increasing domestic need for fuel-grade LNG,” reports Lalani.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "2025 Vision: Future of Pumps in a Connected World" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


This study forecasts the future of the pumps industry amidst the onset of a new wave of digitalization and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).

The changing market conditions influenced by demand-supply shock, oil price volatility, political tension, and shift in customer preferences are making pump manufacturers revisit their value proposition. In a mature and fragmented industry like pumps where growth from pump equipment remains in the single digit, pump OEMs have started to observe a spike in demand for aftermarket services. This spike also indicates a shift in pump OEMs' role from being mere product suppliers to a thought-partner enabling end-users in their digital transformation journey to collaboratively build a connected ecosystem. The pumps market, valued at ~$38.34 billion in 2019, is expected to discover new growth opportunities by expanding its service capabilities with IIoT technologies and move beyond standard aftermarket services.

In this pump visionary study, we have identified the top 5 global Mega Trends and assessed their implication for the pumps industry. The study also discusses the market size and offers a breakdown by region, product segment, and end-user industry. To understand the role of services in the pump market, the study also includes revenue potential from the services segment. An overview of the key market participants, their product offering, and their market positioning have been provided in this report.

The publisher has identified the top 4 innovative business models that pump OEMs can implement by investing and integrating IIoT into their solution offering. These models will enable OEMs to unlock new revenue streams and stay ahead of their peers. The study does a deep dive into each business model and assesses its implication on the pumps industry. Some of the key IIoT technologies that are instrumental in the successful transition of the industry include cloud computing, analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning and blockchain. The end-user shift from a CAPEX to an OPEX model and the need for data insights, require pump OEMs to proactively embrace these progressive technologies in their service offering.

With the potential to realize double-digit growth from services, pump OEMs are at a juncture to revisit their product and service offerings as well as their relationship across the distribution channel. By expanding service capabilities with advanced and digital services, pump OEMs are well-positioned to increase the uptime, reliability, and lifetime of the machine. They can assist their end-users to move towards a predictive maintenance approach, reduce OPEX, and increase production efficiency.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "The Global Market for Nanomaterials in Batteries and Supercapacitors" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


With global energy demands ever-increasing, allied to efforts to reduce the use of fossil fuel and eliminate air pollutions, it is now essential to provide efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly energy storage devices. The growing market for smart grid networks, electric vehicles (EVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) is also driving the market for improving the energy density of rechargeable batteries.

Rechargeable battery technologies (such as Li-ion, Li-S, Na-ion, Li-O2 batteries) and supercapacitors are among the most promising power storage and supply systems in terms of their widespread applicability, and tremendous potential owing to their high energy and power densities. LIBs are currently the dominant mobile power sources for portable electronic devices used in cell phones and laptops.

Although great advances have been made, each type of battery still suffers from problems that seriously hinder the practical applications for example in commercial EVs and PHEVs. The performance of these devices is inherently tied to the properties of materials used to build them. Nanotechnology and nanomaterials will play an important role in all aspects of the energy sector:

Lithium-ion batteries have shown great promise in portable electronics and electric vehicles due to their long lifespan and high safety. However, hurdles relating to the sluggish dynamics and poor cycling stability restrict the practical application. Nanostructured materials, due to their significantly decreased particles size, are thought to effectively address these issues.

Advantages of nanomaterials include:

  • Nanoscale shortens lithium-ion diffusion length.
  • New reactions at nanoscale are not possible with bulk materials.
  • Nanoscale combining with electronic conductive coating improves electronic transport.
  • Decreased mechanical stresses due to volume change lead to increased cyclability and lifetime.
  • Nanoscale enhances the electrode capability of Li storage.
  • Ordered mesoporous structure favours both Li storage and fast electrode kinetic.
  • Nano-structure enhances cycle stability.

Nanomaterials are also finding application in Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries, sodium-ion batteries, lithium-air batteries, Magnesium batteries and paper, flexible and stretchable batteries. Nanomaterials, especially carbon nanomaterials, have been widely investigated as effective electrodes in supercapacitors due to their high specific surface area, excellent electrical and mechanical properties.

Applications of nanomaterials in batteries and supercapacitors include:

  • Electrodes in batteries and capacitors.
