EV charging program helps deliver 12 stations to Palm Springs Cathedral City High School


OVERLAND PARK, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--With communities across Southern California seeking to accelerate electric vehicle adoption efforts, Black & Veatch announces the completion of 12 charging stations at Cathedral City High School (CCHS) in Palm Springs, California. The project, a key component in local decarbonization efforts, was made possible through ‘Charge Ready,’ a program from public utility Southern California Edison (SCE) launched to add charging stations in its service area.

Black & Veatch, a leading provider of electric and alternative fuel transportation infrastructure, provided construction services for 12 EV charging ports at the public high school. Run by SCE, the Charge Ready Schools Program is a $10-million, state-approved program that seeks to place EV charging infrastructure at K-12 schools throughout SCE’s service area for use by faculty, staff, students, and community members. The program is viewed as a critical step toward meeting the state’s goal of carbon neutrality by 2045.

In addition to providing additional charging infrastructure options, CCHS hopes the site will encourage students to choose EVs while also preparing the school for its planned adoption of a zero-emission fleet by 2035. Palm Springs Unified School District (PSUSD) aims to have all the district’s high schools similarly equipped within two years.

To date, Black & Veatch has provided design, engineering, and construction services at 35 sites within SCE’s Charge Ready suite of programs. An additional 67 sites currently are in design. Black & Veatch is one of several contractors SCE selected for the Charge Ready programs.

“Utilities have an important role to play in preparing communities to achieve the net-zero transition; and through the Charge Ready program, SCE is doing just that,” said Dean Siegrist, associate vice president, Black & Veatch. “We at Black & Veatch are proud to be involved in helping communities adopt more sustainable forms of transportation and in facilitating adoption of EVs for the young adults at Cathedral City High School.”

SCE’s Charge Ready program is one of several make-ready EV charging infrastructure programs across the nation. As one of the first, SCE’s program has served as a model for utilities to follow. Utilities invest in EV make-ready programs to prepare their service areas for electrification and to stimulate EV adoption by adding public charging infrastructure at key locations.

Other utilities in major metropolitan areas working on similar make-ready charging infrastructure programs include Georgia Power, New York Power Authority, Duke Energy, Xcel Energy, PG&E, Portland General Electric, and San Diego Gas and Electric.

The amounts and sources of distributions TPZ reports are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon TPZ’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations.

The two organizations have partnered to help energy, seaport operations, logistics, and shipping startups scale innovative solutions for ports and maritime technology locally and worldwide.


SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global venture capital firm 500 Global and Ashdod Port Company (“Ashdod Port”), a leading port in Israel, have joined forces to launch the inaugural cohort of the Ashdod Port Accelerator by 500 Global.

Ashdod Port and 500 Global will select up to 14 Israeli startups for the accelerator program, which helps startups quickly test and validate partnership opportunities with Ashdod Port through an accelerated proof of concept over the course of five to six months.

For this first cohort, Ashdod Port is selecting startups with solutions in energy, seaport operations, logistics, and shipping. They will benefit from 12 weeks of masterclasses and coaching from 500 Global’s international network of mentors, and receive a full array of support and resources from the Port, including testing space for their products.

“Unlike traditional accelerator programs that focus on scaling and growth education, a startup that is selected for the Ashdod Port Accelerator by 500 Global will have tangible opportunities to dive straight into Proof of Concept and is on a fast-track to pilots, partnerships and integration opportunities with Ashdod Port. We are excited to be able to help startups in the maritime space expand and grow with an innovative partner,” said Ee Ling Lim, Executive Director of Global Programs, 500 Global.

“This past year demonstrated that the world of shipping and marine routes are important to the proper function of the global economy, when an estimated 90% of goods are transported by sea. We are breaking into a “blue ocean" that appears eager to absorb technology, and hope that we can bring the good news to other ports in the world. I congratulate 500 Global on their win and am delighted at this opportunity to work with them, and to help drive innovation in the marine world," said Shiko Zana, CEO​ of the Ashdod Port Board of Directors.

Applications for the Ashdod Port Accelerator by 500 Global are open from January 10 to February 3, 2022. The program and proof of concept are expected to take place from March to September 2022.

NEWCASTLE & HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TechnipFMC plc (NYSE: FTI) (PARIS: FTI) (the “Company”) announced today that following a comprehensive review of its strategic objectives, it is proceeding with the voluntary delisting of its shares (ISIN: GB00BDSFG982) from Euronext Paris.


Following the partial spin-off of Technip Energies and the progressive selldown of the Company’s remaining ownership stake, the Company has refocused as a pure-play technology and services provider to the traditional and new energies industries. It now has its principal place of business in Houston. These actions have led the Board of Directors to conclude that a single listing on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is more consistent with the Company’s strategic refocus and shareholder base, and allows the Company to better align with its most appropriate peer set. In addition, the Company expects that the savings in costs, administrative requirements, and managerial time required to maintain a dual listing can be redirected to other initiatives that contribute to shareholder value.

The delisting has been approved by the Board of Directors of Euronext Paris SA and the Company’s shares will remain listed on the NYSE under the symbol “FTI”.

The holders of TechnipFMC shares traded on Euronext and held through the facilities of Euroclear France (the “TFMC Euronext Shares”) will have the following options:

  • keep their TFMC Euronext Shares, which they will be able to trade on Euronext Paris until the day before the delisting date and on the NYSE thereafter through the facilities of The Depositary Trust Company (“DTC”), subject to the terms applied by their financial intermediary and their custody arrangements; or
  • participate in a voluntary sales facility (described below) to sell all or part of their TFMC Euronext Shares, in accordance with the rules and regulations of Euronext Paris.

For the avoidance of doubt, holders of TFMC Euronext Shares will be able to trade on Euronext Paris until February 17, 2022 (the last trading date prior to the delisting).

Procedure of the Voluntary Sales Facility

Shareholders who wish to sell their TFMC Euronext Shares utilizing the voluntary sales facility should request that their financial intermediaries deliver their TFMC Euronext Shares to Société Générale, acting as centralizing agent, at any time from January 12, 2022 to January 31, 2022 (inclusive).

TFMC Euronext Shares delivered to Société Générale will be sold on the NYSE as from February 8, 2022 at the market price prevailing at the time of sale.

Société Générale will calculate the average sales price of TFMC Euronext Shares sold during the sales period and transfer the sale proceeds (which will be converted into euros from U.S. dollars by Société Générale) to the participating shareholders once it receives the funds.

The Company will pay the fees for the centralization and the brokerage fee related to the sale of TFMC Euronext Shares delivered to Société Générale as part of the voluntary sales facility.

This voluntary sales facility procedure is also described in a Euronext notice to be published on January 11, 2022.

Please note that no guarantee can be given by the Company or by Société Générale as to the price at which the TFMC Euronext Shares tendered pursuant to the voluntary sales facility will actually be sold. This process is being provided solely as an accommodation to holders of TFMC Euronext Shares.

Shareholders may decide not to participate in the voluntary sales facility or may decide not to take any action, in which case no guarantee can be given to them on the terms that will be applied by their financial intermediary after the delisting. Shareholders are urged to consult their own investment advisors before making a decision to participate or not in this process.

The calendar of the voluntary sales facility and the delisting of the Company described above is summarized as follows (it being specified that the Company reserves the right to amend this calendar):

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Emerging Biofuels Market in India and Outlook Till 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


To encourage production of Biodiesel in the country, GoI has mandated the OMCs to purchase Biodiesel (B 100), meeting the fuel quality standard prescribed by BIS for blending with HSD to the extent of 5% at identified purchase centres across the country.

During a period from 2016-19 a growth of over 500% has been seen in the procurement of biodiesel by OMCs for blending, which has increased from 1.19 Crore Litres in 2016 to 8.21 Crore Litres in 2019. Further, it is also noticeable that the current consumption of High-Speed Diesel (HSD) in the country is 84 MMT or 102 MKL, and it is projected to increase to 132.3 MKL by 2022. At 5% blending level, 660 crore litres of biodiesel would be needed. About 225 crore litres of waste-edible oil-based feedstock (188 crore litres UCO and 36 crore litres acid oil / fatty acids) could be available for biodiesel processors.

Used cooking oil can potentially replace or supplement palm stearin as feedstock in 3 years and in 5 years' time the biodiesel manufactured can be equivalent to ethanol produced. With the incentives that government is offering to the FBOs for generating and supplying UCOs many of them are working on forefront to increase the distribution volumes of the same.

Hardcastle Restaurants (HRPL), the master franchisee of McDonald's in west and south India is one such FBO. The company has started to run its delivery trucks in Mumbai with biodiesel made from its own used cooking oil. The company plans to link all its 270 outlets to produce around 7 lakh tonnes of biodiesel in the next couple of years.

Further, it is significant to note that the company is looking at expanding its restaurant footprint to 450- 500 and will generate around 15 lakh litres of used oil to make biodiesel to run its refrigerated delivery trucks by 2023.

(“TurnOnGreen”), has completed phase one of a multi-phase electric vehicle (“EV”) charger installation project at The Alisal Guest Ranch and Resort (“The Alisal”), in Solvang, California. The first phase of the electrification project consisted of installing TurnOnGreen’s commercial network level 2 chargers, the EVP700G, in the guest parking lot. Drivers can locate the chargers using the TurnOnGreen mobile application and initiate a charging session with the app, QR code, or RFID card. The TurnOnGreen mobile application is available for download on the App Store for iPhone users and Google Play for Android users.


The Alisal has consistently ranked as one of the top resorts in the country. The property features 73 rooms, two private championship golf courses, a variety of equestrian activities, six tennis courts, a private lake, and miles of bike trails. Conveniently located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, The Alisal offers a five-star resort experience with an expanding charging infrastructure ideal for EV drivers seeking destination vacations. It is recommended that visitors planning to drive their EV to The Alisal download the TurnOnGreen application before visiting the property.

PERTH, Australia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rio Tinto has agreed to purchase four battery-electric trains for use in the Pilbara region of Western Australia as part of the company’s strategy to reduce its carbon emissions by 50 per cent by 2030.


Rio Tinto purchased the four 7MWh FLXdrive battery-electric locomotives from Wabtec Corporation with production due to commence in the United States in 2023 ahead of initial trials in the Pilbara in early 2024.

The locomotives, used to carry ore from the company’s mines to its ports, will be recharged at purpose-built charging stations at the port or mine. They will also be capable of generating additional energy while in transit through a regenerative braking system which takes energy from the train and uses it to recharge the onboard batteries.

A full transition to net zero emissions technology of its entire fleet of rail locomotives would reduce Rio Tinto Iron Ore’s diesel-related carbon emissions in the Pilbara by around 30 per cent annually.

Rio Tinto Managing Director of Port, Rail and Core Services Richard Cohen said delivery of the prototype locomotives will be an important early step for the company on the path toward a decarbonised Pilbara.

“Our partnership with Wabtec is an investment in innovation and an acknowledgement of the need to increase the pace of our decarbonisation efforts.

“Battery-electric locomotives offer significant potential for emissions reduction in the near term as we seek to reduce our Scope 1 & 2 carbon emissions in the Pilbara by 50 per cent by 2030.”

Rogerio Mendonca, President of Freight Equipment for Wabtec, said the FLXdrive is ideally suited to support Rio Tinto’s decarbonisation targets.

“This locomotive provides the power, fuel savings and emissions reductions to cost-effectively run rail networks in the mining industry. The rapid adoption of the FLXdrive by Rio Tinto and other mining operators demonstrates the industry’s commitment to decarbonising their operations.”

Once delivered, the locomotives will be trialled within controlled environments in the Pilbara and tested against a range of safety and functional criteria, including integration with AutoHaul™.

This flagship project reaffirms Rio Tinto’s commitment to significantly reducing carbon emissions by switching to renewable power and rolling out electric mobile fleets across the Pilbara.
