Global report provides valuable insights into shopper preferences during pandemic that will drive traffic, increase revenue and improve retention

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#customerexperience--PDI (www.pdisoftware.com), a leader in global solutions for the convenience retail and petroleum wholesale markets, today released findings from their 2020 C-Store Shopper Report providing insights into how consumer habits are shifting with c-store shoppers amid the backdrop of a global pandemic.


The findings provide a global perspective from 450 convenience retailers across several countries, including responses from 2,500 U.S. consumers and 150 decision-makers who work for retailers, grocers, and CPG brands.

Key findings from the survey include:

  • U.S. and Non-U.S. convenience retailers placed customer retention at the top of their list of current business necessities (U.S. 16%, Non-U.S. 18%).
  • Retailers are increasing focus on customer experience as a means to increase revenue. U.S. (66%) and Non-U.S. (74%) convenience store retailers claim they plan to improve the customer experience after the pandemic subsides.
  • More c-store loyalty members (40%) said they currently use their mobile app to track and redeem rewards than all loyalty members (37%).

"Effective loyalty programs utilize data to profitably change consumer behavior. Due to the pandemic and other market forces, consumer habits have shifted, and data from loyalty programs are more critical than ever to stay ahead and adapt to evolving consumer trends," says Brandon Logsdon, president and general manager, Marketing Cloud and Fuel Pricing Solutions, PDI.

COVID-19 has also created a significant impact on the way consumers pay now, and likely, for the foreseeable future. Nearly three out of ten U.S. and Non-U.S. convenience retailers experienced changes in purchase and payment trends like increased contactless and mobile payment, as well as curbside pickup or home delivery.

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Able Grid Energy Solutions (Able Grid), a leading developer of battery energy storage projects throughout the U.S., along with its development and operating partners MAP® Energy (MAP®) and Astral Electricity (Astral), today announced that full notice to proceed has been issued on the Chisholm Grid battery energy storage system located in Fort Worth, Texas. Chisholm Grid will have an initial rated capacity of 100 megawatts (MWac) and is scheduled to begin commercial operations in mid-2021. Mortenson is the balance of plant (BOP) and battery installation contractor for the Chisholm Grid facility, which is Mortenson’s ninth energy storage project.

The Chisholm Grid battery energy storage system was developed by Able Grid Infrastructure Holdings, LLC, a joint venture between Able Grid and MAP®. Able Grid will provide construction management and operational asset management services for the site. Chisholm Grid is owned by Astral Electricity, LLC, a privately-held energy storage power producer currently building multiple utility-scale energy storage projects that will reach commercial operations by mid-2021.

Able Grid was founded in 2016 under the premise that standalone battery energy storage systems would soon become a cost-effective component of the electricity systems that deliver low-cost and reliable energy to consumers. Chisholm Grid will be the largest standalone battery energy storage facility participating in the ERCOT Texas electricity market, and one of the largest in the world, when it reaches commercial operations in mid-2021. ‘Soon’ has become today,” said Barnaby Olson, CEO and Founder of Able Grid.

Chisholm Grid’s development has been enabled by the pro-market policies that are at the core of ERCOT operations,” added Aaron Zubaty, Managing Partner of MAP®. “As the Texas economy continues to grow in the coming years and is increasingly powered by low-cost renewable energy supplies, the Chisholm Grid battery energy storage system will participate in the existing wholesale electricity market as a new and highly-advanced resource to supply valuable grid services that are currently provided by costlier, polluting and less-flexible thermal generating units. Years of innovation by global technology suppliers now allow companies like Astral Electricity to deploy market-driven solutions that will accelerate the decarbonization of electricity supplies while also improving grid performance and regional air quality.”

In early August, Astral issued full notice to proceed to Mortenson and work has already begun onsite for the balance of plant and high voltage transmission components, making Chisholm Grid the largest standalone battery energy storage project currently under construction in the U.S. outside of California.

The Chisholm Grid project will set a new benchmark for world-class energy storage facilities that benefit the environment, economy, and electric grid. Mortenson is honored to join Able Grid and MAP on this transformational project in Texas,” said James Phaneuf, Mortenson’s Vice President and general manager of energy storage. “Our energy storage design and construction expertise will help ensure Able Grid and MAP’s vision for this project are successfully brought to life.”

At peak construction, approximately 50 people will be employed on-site at Chisholm Grid, and Mortenson has secured subcontracts from local Dallas – Fort Worth-based trade partners to ensure local participation on the project.

GREENEVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ARTAZN LLC, one of the leading manufacturers of coin blanks, and one of the world’s largest manufacturers of zinc strip and applied zinc products, has officially announced an exciting development of its capabilities for collaborative innovation with its partners: an expansion of its current product development lab. With the increase of lab infrastructure and personnel, ARTAZN™ and its customers can join forces in creating niche products with unique properties, further highlighting zinc’s potential to solve a number of needs across a variety of industries. And based on its initial products, the program is set to be an incredible tool — and success — for all participants.


By combining zinc with other properties to meet specific customer applications, the lab has already created a number of material solutions for the coinage, automotive, manufacturing, and specialty industries. From high-draw battery cans and controlled etch and surface photo engraving plates to fuse elements for enhanced electrical conductivity, here are a few more examples of the lab’s most notable innovations to date:

ZincSecure®: The greatest success story of the program, ZincSecure®, is a coinage alternative manufactured to provide superior security and performance while also providing a cost-effective solution to mints and banks who otherwise depend on high-cost alloy coins (HSA) and low-value bank notes. Through the lab’s innovations, it is now possible to plate nickel on zinc through a special annealing process to relieve the stress of the plating layer. For ARTAZN, one of the world’s leading coin blank manufacturers circulating more than 300 billion coin blanks across 20 countries, ZincSecure® isn’t just a material innovation, it’s an industry game changer.

Low Conductivity Fuses: Exclusively from ARTAZN, these new, lower conductivity alloys allow for precision manufacturing of ultra-low amperage automotive blade fuses that were historically difficult to produce.

Hollow LifeDowel™: A critical structural component in jointed concrete pavements, ARTAZN’s hollow dowel is less than half the weight of competitors’ options, making it easier and safer to handle while also meeting or exceeding load and deflection test criterion. Even more, it’s also a cost-effective choice for high-performance design.

Grounding Mat: An anode-grade grounding mat specifically designed to work with cathodically protected and isolated structures, this grounding mat increases soil contact, thereby reducing contact resistance and improving grounding capacity, as compared to traditional grounding methods. Guarantees simple and low-cost installation.

Guard Rail Accessories: Solid zinc components used in guard rail designs add to corrosion resistance while also enhancing safety attributes of the structure.

Regarding ARTAZN’s product lab expansion, Tom Wennogle, President of ARTAZN LLC, has stated: ”We have been in the zinc industry for decades and place a high value on innovation. Our expanded product development lab creates an opportunity for partnering with our customers to develop high-quality products for their unique needs, as we leverage the hidden benefits of zinc, such as cost-effectiveness, durability, ductility, and formability."

The product development lab is one initiative among many that allows ARTAZN to elevate deliverables for the coinage, stamping, automotive, and cathodic protection industries. Also on the horizon, new possibilities with the Jadex Inc. corporate-wide sustainability platform—an initiative that will put the company’s commitment to sustainable practices and developing products with a low carbon footprint into motion.

Stay tuned for even more exciting innovations.

About ARTAZN LLC

ARTAZN™, a Jadex Inc. company, is a US-based manufacturer of zinc strip, applied zinc products, and ZincSecure®, a high security zinc-based coinage product. Headquartered in Greeneville, Tennessee, they are the largest North American producer of solid zinc strip and zinc-based products and one of the largest in the world.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Advanced Process Control - Global Market Outlook (2019-2027)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


The Global Advanced Process Control market accounted for $15.03 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach $35.38 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 11.3% during the forecast period.

Some of the key factors propelling market growth include growing emphasis of end use industries such as petrochemical and nuclear power on safety, improvement and optimization of their processes, increasing importance of regulatory compliance, rising safety and security concerns and inclination of enterprises toward energy-efficient processes. However, lack of data control and improper or non-maintenance of APC are restraining market growth.

By end user, the oil and gas segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period as well owing to the high adoption of APC systems in the industry. This can be attributed to the fact that processing operations in the oil and gas industry are complex and need to be regulated on a real-time basis. Earlier, computation of the complex data associated with various operations required to be manually done, which was often associated with a vast scope of error. To avoid these manual errors, the oil and gas industry has started adopting advanced process controls and is likely to remain a leading end user of APC systems in the near future as well.

On the basis of geography, Asia Pacific is expected to emerge as the significant-growing regional APC market due to the increasing demand for advanced process control tools from various end-use industries. The growth of industries such as paints and coatings, pharmaceutical and chemical in emerging economies such as India and China is playing a significant role in the overall development of the market. Moreover, growing environmental awareness among end use industries and strict legal regulations are also driving the adoption of advanced process control systems in the region.

Some of the key players in advanced process control market include Siemens, Aspen Technology, ABB, Panasonic Corporation, Rockwell Automation, Schneider Electric, Rudolph Technologies, Emerson Electric Co., Yokogawa Electric Corporation, Honeywell International Inc, General Electric Co., SGS Group, Mavtech Technologies, ARC Advisory Group, LayTec and FLSmidth.

REGINA, Saskatchewan & VANCOUVER, British Columbia & TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--National and Western Canada leaders of the United Steelworkers union (USW) say news of pending layoffs at Evraz Steel in Regina is the result of the federal government’s failure to commit to use Canadian products in Canadian infrastructure projects.


Steelworkers’ jobs at the Regina pipe mill are in jeopardy after it was learned that an order to make 48-inch pipe for energy infrastructure company TC Energy in Northern Alberta has been given to an offshore company.

“It should not happen that one Canadian company can decide not to use Canadian steel products in its infrastructure projects,” said USW National Director Ken Neumann. “Our government has failed to protect Canadian jobs and does not even have a Canadian-made procurement strategy for public infrastructure projects, let alone private projects that impact our economic future.”

USW Western Canada Director Stephen Hunt said Alberta Premier Jason Kenney must also step in to preserve jobs in Western Canada.

“Mr. Kenney says his support for the energy sector in Western Canada is all about jobs and the economic future of Canadians working in the sector,” said Hunt. “It’s time he proved it by talking to his friends at TC Energy and telling them that if pipelines are going to be built, they must be made in Canada.”

Stand Up for Steel is the USW’s national campaign to inject stability into the steel sector including a made-in-Canada policy and a reformed trade policy that would, among other things, allow unions to launch trade complaints.

“Demand for steel products has dropped as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The only way to rebuild a strong, resilient economy will be to inject massive funding into physical infrastructure projects. Many projects are not using Canadian-made steel. Instead they are using cheaper steel obtained offshore,” said Neumann.

“Reform means it is necessary to ensure that the jobs of Canadians are a higher priority than getting the cheapest possible product.”

USW Local 5890 President Mike Day, representing workers at the Evraz mill in Regina, said news of layoffs due to pipe orders going offshore is an insult added to injury.

“My members are demanding that both Jason Kenney and Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe show some courage and demand that projects in Canada use Canadian products,” said Day. “Our members should not be made victims because of bad public policy and a lack of attention to the future of our domestic industry.”
