Grant Programs from PG&E and The PG&E Corporation Foundation Support Key Investments in Climate Action for Local Communities
OAKLAND, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Building upon a long history of climate action and environmental stewardship, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) and The PG&E Corporation Foundation (Foundation) have awarded $900,000 across two grant programs intended to support climate resilience efforts in PG&E’s hometowns, while also protecting and restoring land, water, and air in habitats and communities across California.
“When PG&E issued our Climate Strategy Report earlier this year, we recognized that our approach to climate action must be twofold – we have to become more resilient to the impacts being felt today, while also working to heal the planet and avoid the impacts of tomorrow. Through these two grant programs, we’re pleased to work collaboratively with organizations in our hometowns to address both of these challenges with a focus on equity,” said Carla Peterman, Executive Vice President, Corporate Affairs and Chief Sustainability Officer for PG&E Corporation and Chair of the Board of The PG&E Corporation Foundation.
Better Together Nature Positive Innovation Grants
As one of the largest landowners in California, PG&E has a long history of responsible stewardship of the natural environment. Through the Better Together Nature Positive Innovation grant program, the Foundation is reinforcing its focus on environmental stewardship and pursuing opportunities to invest in partnerships that will promote protecting and restoring land, water, and air in habitats and communities across our service area.
For 2022, the Better Together Nature Positive Innovation grant program has awarded five $100,000 grants to the following organizations:
“We appreciate The PG&E Corporation Foundation for recognizing our proposal to engage and work with property owners along the Cobb Area Watershed, which feeds directly into Clear Lake. This stewardship project targets watershed management practices in the Cobb Mountain community by recruiting local property owners to participate in “hands-on” workshops interweaving resource management training with direct actions to match site conditions and landowner concerns. Every workshop we hold involves tribal knowledge holders and teachers, who will combine their expertise with that of other topical specialists,” said Eliot Hurwitz, Executive Director of the Seigler Springs Community Redevelopment Association.

Resilience Hubs Grants
Recognizing that communities across California face growing threats from extreme weather events such as coastal and inland flooding, heat waves, wildfires, and more powerful storms, the Resilience Hubs grant program seeks to fund and establish physical spaces, or a set of resources, that support community resilience in the face of these climate-driven events. Once developed, these hubs can also be accessed year-round to build and sustain community-adaptive capacity in a trusted location.
For 2022, the Resilience Hubs grant program has awarded $400,000 to the seven organizations listed below. These grants will be funded by PG&E shareholders as part of the company’s investments in statewide wildfire resiliency and response, in accordance with a mandate from the California Public Utilities Commission.
The program awarded $25,000 each to four Feasibility Projects to fund an assessment of resilience hub needs and/or conceptual ideas for a resilience hub:
Additionally, the program awarded $100,000 each to three Design and Build Projects toward the design and/or creation of a resilience hub. Through these projects, the organizations will either plan and design new physical spaces or mobile resources, or retrofit existing buildings or structures to support community resilience:
“The Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano is thrilled to receive funding to strengthen our partners’ ability to serve their communities, especially in times of acute crisis. By storing emergency food in central locations, we will ensure the community has access to critical services—without delay,” said Joel Sjostrom, President and CEO of the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano.

FRESNO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#circulareconomy--ERI, the nation’s largest fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition (ITAD) provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company, has launched its new internal system designed to harness proprietary A.I. and machine learning technology innovations to further enhance operational efficiency. The new system, called “SOAR,” is now fully operational.
SOAR utilizes ERI’s proprietary Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology to highlight text on a picture, allowing the user to easily make selections during the receiving process. The second phase of the SOAR platform, announced this week, takes the process to the next level of efficiency. Driven by machine learning and artificial intelligence, the system provides automated selections of the appropriate text from the OCR scans of images, which eliminates the need for user decision-making.
SOAR moves the overall receiving process of assets such as desktops, laptops and other electronic devices to a near-automated experience where the user has minimal interaction with the data itself. The technology streamlines the intake process procedure, simply requiring the user to take a photo of the device. ERI’s proprietary cloud-based software Optech does all the work from there, printing a coded tag for the user to stick to the device.
“We are proud to be pioneering a new realm of efficiency for the electronics recycling industry with SOAR,” said ERI’s Chairman and CEO, John Shegerian. “We expect that this innovative system will once again increase efficiency gains by approximately 50% or more and further improve the accuracy of captured data. We are taking a process that was already best-in-class and taking it to a whole new level of excellence.”
The first iteration of SOAR was initially launched in April of this year. The proprietary concept designed by ERI’s in-house technology team immediately improved receiving times of ITAD equipment coming through ERI’s warehouse doors. Originally, a small number of workstations were set up to test and gain feedback on the SOAR platform. ERI now has more than 50 stations deployed across the country in ERI’s facilities. Efficiency improvements, nationwide, have reached approximately 250% while also increasing accuracy. ERI’s IT team continue to make enhancements to the system, including those announced this week.
ERI works with all of its partners to increase the volume of material captured within a closed loop and is the recipient of an overall “A” rating from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Circulytics tool which measures progress towards a circular economy.
ERI is the nation’s leading fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company.
ERI is the largest fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company in the United States. ERI is certified at the highest level by all leading environmental and data security oversight organizations to de-manufacture, recycle, and refurbish every type of electronic device in an environmentally responsible manner. It is the first and only company in its industry to achieve SOC 2 certification for security and data protection.

IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ExxonMobil today announced successful startup of one of the largest advanced recycling facilities in North America. The facility at the company’s integrated manufacturing complex in Baytown, Texas, uses proprietary technology to break down hard-to-recycle plastics and transform them into raw materials for new products. It is capable of processing more than 80 million pounds of plastic waste per year, supporting a circular economy for post-use plastics and helping divert plastic waste currently sent to landfills.
“We’ve proven our proprietary advanced recycling technology at Baytown, and now we’re leveraging our scale and integration to increase production of certified circular plastics to meet growing demand,” said Karen McKee, president of ExxonMobil Product Solutions Company. “There is substantial demand for recycled plastics, and advanced recycling can play an important role by breaking down plastics that could not be recycled in traditional, mechanical methods. We are collaborating with government, industry and communities to scale up the collection and sorting of plastic waste that will improve recycling rates and help our customers around the world meet their sustainability goals.”
Since the start of pilot operations at Baytown last year, ExxonMobil has recycled nearly 15 million pounds of plastic waste. The proprietary ExxtendTM technology enables the breakdown of plastic waste that would previously be destined for landfills – from synthetic athletic fields to bubble wrap and motor oil bottles.
The company helped form Cyclyx International LLC, a joint venture created to collect and sort large volumes of plastic waste and is investing in a first-of-its-kind plastic waste processing facility in Houston to help supply ExxonMobil’s Baytown advanced recycling facility.
To accelerate advanced recycling, ExxonMobil is a founding member of the Houston Recycling Collaboration, which brings government and industry together to increase access to recycling programs and expand infrastructure for mechanical and advanced recycling technologies.
ExxonMobil plans to build advanced recycling facilities at many of its other manufacturing sites around the world, which would give it the capacity to process up to 1 billion pounds of plastic waste annually by year-end 2026. The company is assessing facilities in Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Beaumont, Texas; and Joliet, Illinois; as well as at sites in Belgium, the Netherlands, Singapore and Canada.
ExxonMobil is also collaborating with third parties to assess the potential for large-scale implementation of advanced recycling technologies and opportunities to support improvements to plastic waste collection and sorting in Malaysia and Indonesia.
ExxonMobil has commercial contracts to sell certified circular plastics to customers around the world for use in food-safe plastic packaging, including collaborations with Sealed Air and Ahold Delhaize USA, Berry Global, and Amcor.
Advanced recycling is a proven technology that can help accelerate a circular economy and address the challenge of plastic waste. With effective government policies in place to modernize the recycling system and improve waste collection, more plastic materials can be collected, sorted and recycled, especially plastics that aren’t easily recycled today.

The Company will advance the capabilities of its multipurpose satellite constellation with in-orbit demonstrations of new technology developments
VIENNA, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Spire Global, Inc. (NYSE: SPIR) (“Spire” or “the Company”), a leading global provider of space-based data, analytics and space services, will launch six satellites on the SpaceX Transporter-6 mission from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station no earlier than January 2023. The satellites will demonstrate advancements and new capabilities for Spire’s weather and aviation solutions.
Spire will launch two demonstration satellites carrying next-generation Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) payloads, which collect aircraft position data. The satellites will expand Spire’s existing ADS-B constellation and play an integral role in improving coverage and latency for the Company’s aviation products. They will demonstrate sophisticated technology for global aircraft tracking, including an advanced antenna design based on years of in-orbit ADS-B payload experience and state-of-the-art inter-satellite links. The satellites will be Spire’s first to have propulsion systems on board. The multipurpose satellites will also carry payloads to monitor Automatic Identification System (AIS) signals for vessel tracking data and for Space Services customer Myriota, a provider of global Internet of Things (IoT) service from satellites.
One of the satellites on the launch will fly a polarimetric radio occultation (PRO) payload that collects data on precipitation profiles and patterns. The mission will validate PRO sensitivity to precipitation using several global navigation satellite systems as signals of opportunity. This will be the first step towards the assimilation of PRO data into weather models, which will enhance the value and accuracy of global weather forecasts along with the weather variables currently gathered by Spire’s constellation. The PRO payload, which will be the first launched by a private company, was designed as part of the ESA InCubed Programme, a co-funding program focused on developing innovative and commercially viable products and services that generate or exploit the value of Earth observation imagery and dataset. This activity is supported by the Luxembourg Space Agency (LSA). Spire is the largest producer of radio occultation data, which is leveraged by government agencies like NOAA, NASA, ECMWF, and EUMETSAT to drive global weather predictions.
“We at ESA are very happy with the efficiency, focus, and speed of implementation of this activity, and if we can see it resulting in measurement data and processing results for systematic evaluation of their assimilation into numerical weather prediction, that will be a rewarding completion,” said Thomas Burger, ESA Technical Officer for Spire.
“Satellites and payloads are continuing to get smaller and more powerful,” said Jeroen Cappaert, Spire CTO and Co-founder. “We’re capitalizing on this rapid pace of innovation and miniaturization to continue to enhance our constellation with cutting-edge technology that drives new applications of satellite data. The applications we’re demonstrating for aviation tracking and precipitation data will play a crucial role in solving some of the greatest challenges we face on Earth, such as overcoming climate change with more accurate weather forecasting and bringing transparency to the supply chain.”
The Company is also launching three satellites to replenish its fully deployed constellation of more than 100 multipurpose satellites. Spire designs and builds its satellites entirely in house at its manufacturing facility in Glasgow. The Company has built and launched more than 150 satellites, carrying over 500 years of spaceflight heritage across its fleet.
The satellites are manifested on the mission through a multi-launch agreement between Spire and Exolaunch, which includes access to the Transporter missions through Exolaunch’s long-term launch arrangements with SpaceX. Exolaunch, a global provider of launch, in-space logistics and deployment services, will also provide Spire with deployment and integration services.

DURHAM, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rice Acquisition Corp. II (NYSE: RONI) (“RAC II”), a special purpose acquisition company focused on supply-side decarbonization solutions, and NET Power, LLC (“NET Power”) today announced a definitive agreement to enter into a business combination (the “transaction”) to accelerate deployment of NET Power’s proprietary technology that delivers clean, reliable, and low-cost power from natural gas. After the business combination, the company will be named NET Power Inc. (the “combined Company”). The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2023 and the combined Company will be listed on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “NPWR”.
Upon closing of the transaction, Ron DeGregorio, current CEO of NET Power and 40-year power and energy veteran who successfully led NET Power through technology validation and establishment of key supplier partnerships, will be succeeded by Danny Rice, current director of RAC II and former CEO of Rice Energy, Inc., to lead NET Power through commercialization and beyond. The leadership team and board of directors of the combined Company have decades of experience in operations, engineering, management, and investment in energy and power generation.
“We have long believed that if you can use natural gas, generate reliable electricity, and capture the resulting emissions, you would change the world. For over a decade, NET Power has worked tirelessly to prove its game-changing technology, which we did through our demonstration facility in La Porte, Texas. Following the strategic investment and partnership with Baker Hughes to deliver key turbomachinery for future NET Power plants, this transaction properly capitalizes NET Power and enables the company to commercialize this revolutionary technology. The Rice Group is a logical strategic partner, and I am excited to hand the reins to Danny to lead NET Power,” said retiring CEO Ron DeGregorio.
Incoming CEO Danny Rice said, “Today, around 60% of global power generation comes from coal and natural gas-fired power plants that produce reliable and low-cost power. However, these plants collectively emit nearly 14 billion tonnes of CO2 per year, accounting for approximately 37% of total global emissions. By replacing these plants with NET Power’s proven technology, we can eliminate nearly 100% of these emissions while providing reliable and low-cost power that people deserve. I’m excited to help NET Power deliver the energy trifecta and become the global leader in clean power generation.”
Vicki Hollub, President and CEO of Occidental, said, “We are excited to support this transaction, which will further NET Power’s commercialization plans and help achieve decarbonization goals globally. We first invested in NET Power because we believe the technology can accelerate Oxy’s efforts to reduce emissions in our existing operations and ultimately supply emissions-free power to the Direct Air Capture (“DAC”) sites and sequestration hubs we are developing.”
Occidental is advancing feasibility studies to incorporate NET Power plants into DAC hubs being developed by its 1PointFive subsidiary, where approximately 30 – 40 plants could provide enough clean power for a DAC program capturing 100 – 135 million tonnes of CO2 per year.
Rod Christie, Executive Vice President of Industrial & Energy Technology at Baker Hughes, said, “Our strategic partnership focused on technology development and accelerating market positioning and deployment of the NET Power solution presents a clear path to commercialize near-zero emission natural gas power around the world. The combination of NET Power with Rice Acquisition Corp. II further reinforces the path towards making that progress a reality.”
Cam Hosie, CEO of 8 Rivers, said, “This transaction enables NET Power’s technology to become a cornerstone of the clean energy future. 8 Rivers is proud to have supported NET Power from the beginning, and we will continue to support NET Power’s global deployment by leveraging our commercial and project management expertise while driving deployments through our net-zero solutions business, Zero Degrees.”

The new biodiversity and water ambitions are introduced in a dedicated report that outlines PMI's approach to preserve nature, building on its 2025 Roadmap
LAUSANNE, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As world leaders gather at the UN Biodiversity Conference (COP15), Philip Morris International (PMI) (NYSE: PM) is proud to announce ambitions that align with the Post-2020 Biodiversity Framework.
The company’s new ambitions on biodiversity and water strengthen PMI’s actions to address the environmental impacts of its business operations, which it currently manages through two main strategies: Tackle Climate Change and Preserve Nature. PMI intentionally structured the new ambitions to maximize their impact around a 10-year span, from 2023 to 2033.
Detailing its strategy to Tackle Climate Change, PMI’s 2021 Low-Carbon Transition Plan brought forward the company’s ambitions to achieve carbon neutrality in its direct operations (scopes 1+2) by 2025, and to achieve carbon neutrality across its entire value chain (scopes 1+2+3) by 2040. In addition, it introduced a new goal for the company’s critical suppliers to adopt science-based targets (SBTs) by 2025, in line with the SBTs to which PMI has already committed.
To Preserve Nature, the company published its 2020 Zero Deforestation Manifesto, achieved zero gross deforestation of primary and protected forests, and is working towards achieving zero net deforestation of managed natural forests and having a net positive impact on forests associated with the tobacco supply chain by 2025. In its paper and pulp-based materials supply chain, the company targets zero gross deforestation of primary and protected forests by 2025, as well as zero net deforestation of managed natural forests and no conversion of natural ecosystems by 2030.
Perfect Forest™
PMI is pleased to be at the forefront of promoting the sustainable management of forests and is encouraged that respected stakeholders recognize the importance of what the company is doing. Perfect Forest™ is the name of PMI’s operating nature-based solutions (NbS) projects to preserve forest resources. PMI believes that a constant effort at the landscape level is key in transforming the relationship the company has with forest ecosystems and local stakeholders, where “perfection” is the mutual contribution between the protection of nature and the resulting ecosystem services generated by it. In particular, Perfect Forest™ generates carbon sequestration, enhancing the potential of forestry systems to deliver sustainable forest products and social benefits. It also creates the conditions for protecting water resources, balancing soil elements, and preserving natural habitats—key to supporting biodiversity.
PMI’s New Ambitions to Preserve Nature
Biodiversity
Water stewardship
“As our new ambitions demonstrate, PMI understands that decarbonization, biodiversity protection, forestry management, and water stewardship are deeply connected. We aspire to lead by example in the responsible and sustainable management of natural resources that can allow the promotion and protection of natural ecosystems,” said Jennifer Motles, Chief Sustainability Officer. “It is important to recognize the linkages between biodiversity loss and vulnerability to climate change, and how these could exacerbate poverty and inequality. Adaptation strategies that promote the protection, preservation, and efficient use of natural resources help us build preparedness to manage potential environmental impacts that could affect our business.”
PMI’s strategies to Tackle Climate Change and Preserve Nature have been recognized by CDP, a not-for-profit charity that runs a global disclosure system for investors, companies, cities, and regions to manage their environmental impacts. As of Dec. 13, 2022, PMI has been honored with the Triple A score for its efforts across climate, forests, and water stewardship. The ranking places PMI among one in 1,000 companies worldwide to achieve the prestigious Triple A score and among the world's most pioneering companies leading on environmental transparency and performance.
“Natural capital is a wealth we all share and depend on. It is essential that we do our part to protect, sustainably manage, and nurture it—and we’re proud that CDP has once again recognized PMI’s efforts to do exactly that,” explained Massimo Andolina, SVP, Operations. “Further, preserving natural ecosystems by properly managing land and water resources helps increase the resilience of our production systems and reduce operational risks.”
Through its Integrated Report and CDP submissions, PMI seeks to align with and is proud to support the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Also reflected in the company’s Triple A rating from CDP are PMI’s contributions to the development of the parallel Task Force on Nature-Related Financial Disclosures (TNFD). TNFD centers on the importance of protecting ecosystems and promoting biodiversity. It states that its mission is, in part, “to develop and deliver a risk management and disclosure framework for organizations to report and act on evolving nature-related risks.”

Philip Morris International: Delivering a Smoke-Free Future
Philip Morris International (PMI) is a leading international tobacco company working to deliver a smoke-free future and evolving its portfolio for the long term to include products outside of the tobacco and nicotine sector. The company’s current product portfolio primarily consists of cigarettes and smoke-free products, including heat-not-burn, vapor and oral nicotine products, which are sold in markets outside the U.S. Since 2008, PMI has invested more than USD 9 billion to develop, scientifically substantiate and commercialize innovative smoke-free products for adults who would otherwise continue to smoke, with the goal of completely ending the sale of cigarettes. This includes the building of world-class scientific assessment capabilities, notably in the areas of pre-clinical systems toxicology, clinical and behavioral research, as well as post-market studies. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized the marketing of versions of PMI’s IQOS Platform 1 devices and consumables as a Modified Risk Tobacco Products (MRTPs), finding that an exposure modification orders for these products are appropriate to promote the public health. As of September 30, 2022, excluding Russia and Ukraine, PMI's smoke-free products are available for sale in 70 markets, and PMI estimates that approximately 13.5 million adults around the world had already switched to IQOS and stopped smoking. With a strong foundation and significant expertise in life sciences, in February 2021, PMI announced its ambition to expand into wellness and healthcare areas and deliver innovative products and solutions that aim to address unmet consumer and patient needs.

CALGARY, Alberta--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Imperial Oil Limited (TSE: IMO, NYSE American: IMO) announced today that it has taken up and paid for 20,689,655 common shares (“Shares”) at a price of $72.50 per Share (the “Purchase Price”) under Imperial’s offer (the “Offer”) to purchase for cancellation up to $1.5 billion of its Shares. All amounts are in Canadian dollars.
The Shares purchased represent an aggregate purchase of $1.5 billion and 3.4 percent of the total number of Imperial’s issued and outstanding Shares as of the close of business on October 31, 2022. Immediately following completion of the Offer, Imperial has 584,152,718 Shares issued and outstanding.
A total of 6,289,510 Shares were taken up and purchased pursuant to auction tenders at or below the Purchase Price and pursuant to purchase price tenders. Since the Offer was oversubscribed, shareholders who made auction tenders at or below the Purchase Price and shareholders who made, or were deemed to have made, purchase price tenders had approximately 45 percent of their tendered Shares taken up by Imperial (other than “odd lot” tenders, which were not subject to proration). 14,400,145 Shares were taken up and purchased pursuant to proportionate tenders.
Exxon Mobil Corporation (“ExxonMobil”), Imperial’s majority shareholder, made a proportionate tender under the Offer in order to maintain its proportionate Share ownership at approximately 69.6 percent, resulting in 14,399,985 Shares being taken up pursuant to the Offer. Immediately following completion of the Offer, ExxonMobil holds 406,569,870 Shares.
Imperial has accepted the Shares tendered for purchase and has made payment for the Shares by delivering the aggregate purchase price to Computershare Investor Services Inc., the depositary for the Offer (the “Depositary”). Payment and settlement with shareholders will be effected by the Depositary on or about December 20, 2022, all in accordance with the Offer and applicable law. Any Shares not purchased, including such Shares not purchased as a result of proration or Shares tendered pursuant to auction tenders at prices higher than the Purchase Price or invalidly tendered, will be returned to shareholders as soon as practicable.
To assist shareholders in determining the tax consequences of the Offer, Imperial estimates that a deemed dividend in the amount of $70.75 per Share was triggered on the repurchase of each Share, based on the estimated paid-up capital of $1.75 per Share at December 9, 2022. The dividend deemed to have been paid by Imperial to Canadian resident persons is designated as an “eligible dividend” for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any corresponding provincial and territorial tax legislation.
For the purposes of subsection 191(4) of the Income Tax Act (Canada), the “specified amount” in respect of each Share is $68.22.
Shareholders should consult with their own tax advisors with respect to the income tax consequences of the disposition of their Shares under the Offer.
Imperial retained RBC Capital Markets to act as financial advisor and dealer manager in connection with the Offer.
The full details of the Offer are described in the offer to purchase and issuer bid circular dated November 4, 2022, as well as the related letter of transmittal and notice of guaranteed delivery, copies of which were filed and are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

As the Only European Provider of Cerebras Cloud, Green AI Cloud Delivers AI Super Compute in an Easy-to-Use Solution for AI and ML Applications, Data Science and Simulation Workloads
SUNNYVALE, Calif. & STOCKHOLM--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#AI--Cerebras Systems, the pioneer in high performance artificial intelligence (AI) compute, and Green AI Cloud, the most sustainable super compute platform in Europe, today announced the availability of Cerebras Cloud at Green AI. As the first cloud computing provider in Europe to offer the industry-leading CS-2 system, Green AI customers now can easily train GPT-class models much faster than traditional cloud service providers and with significantly less environmental impact.
The Green AI Cloud is a pioneer in clean energy compute. The Green AI Cloud uses only renewable energy (Hydro and Wind Power) in its datacenter placed in the north of Sweden and converts the excess heat from operations into a heated liquid for industrial product manufacturing – resulting in a negative CO2 footprint. With its new Cerebras Cloud offering, customers can now train leading generative Transformer (GPT)-class models, including GPT-J, GPT-3 and GPT-NeoX, with the promise of equivalent carbon offsets through Green AI’s uniquely sustainable and “carbon-intelligent” cloud.
“We are thrilled to offer our customers access to the industry-leading CS-2 system, powered by the 850,000 AI core WSE processor, which will greatly reduce their initial programming work and enable easy integration with existing workflows,” said Jacob Bostrom, Founder and CEO of Green AI Cloud. “By providing the latest and fastest AI technology through our partnership with Cerebras, we continue to not only drive the future of AI innovation, but also the next era of sustainability and environmental responsibility.”
Energy Efficiency and CO2 Reduction – Examples
Safeguarding Data Security and Privacy Regulations
The EU has some of the strictest data privacy and security rules in the world. A cloud provider based in the EU, such as Green AI Cloud, enables customers across the EU to benefit from Cerebras’ industry-leading AI compute and stay within the data privacy structures. Customers across segments, from pharmaceutical to finance services, and energy to heavy manufacturing, now have push-button access to the Cerebras CS-2 system and can use it by the day, week, or month.
“Cerebras is committed to delivering AI compute – via cloud, on premise or hybrid – to our customers around the world in the most environmentally efficient way possible,” said Andrew Feldman, co-founder and CEO, Cerebras Systems. “As the leader in energy efficient AI compute, it was an obvious choice to partner with and deliver AI compute to the Green AI Cloud.”
Cerebras recently announced its AI Model Studio, as well as partnerships and wins with Sandia National Laboratory and generative AI pioneer Jasper. At the NeurIPS Conference earlier this month, Cerebras broke new ground demonstrating high sparsity training on GPT class models, showing that GPT models can be trained at 90% sparse, using a fraction of the FLOPs and time, and still achieve the same accuracy.
With customers in North America, Asia, Europe and the Middle East, Cerebras is delivering industry leading AI solutions to a growing roster of customers in the enterprise, government, and high-performance computing (HPC) segments, including Jasper, GSK, AstraZeneca, TotalEnergies, nference, Argonne National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center, Leibniz Supercomputing Centre, National Center for Supercomputing Applications, Edinburgh Parallel Computing Centre (EPCC), National Energy Technology Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratory, and Tokyo Electron Devices.
