MADERA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Origo Investments is partnering with industry veterans, Amond World, to develop a state-of-the-art refrigerated cold storage facility in the Madera Airport Industrial Park, which will include two 250,000 square feet buildings, each holding approximately 50 million pounds of almonds or other recently harvested crops for farmers and processors.


The facility will provide short- and long-term storage and will increase profitability, extend almond shelf life by up to two years, and simplify hold costs and logistics. Cold storage for California's agricultural industry is a critical link in the supply chain that feeds our country and serves as an engine of economic growth for the state.

In order to guarantee energy access, reliability and cost economics while considering the sustainability of the facility, Origo has partnered with Scale Microgrids (“Scale”) to design, build, own and operate an off-grid clean energy microgrid providing cheaper, cleaner and more reliable power.

The microgrid system will include 1,200 kW of rooftop solar. Storage of the solar energy will be provided by a 1,200 kW/ 2,400 kWh battery system. The microgrid will include two 1,200 kW enhanced emission-reducing controllable generators.

“Central California produces 60% of all the nuts and citrus consumed in the U.S. each year, the almond industry alone produces 80% of the world’s global supply,” says Origo Investments principal Adam Hayner. “We believe that these new cold storage facilities will support local farmers through empowering them to more efficiently manage the sale of their crops over longer periods and ultimately to deliver higher profitability. To achieve this, we are building temperature-controlled storage that focuses on and prioritizes sustainability. Scale Microgrids is there to help support our commitment to the farmers.”

California is facing energy capacity shortfalls and extreme weather events, creating unpredictability for the local utility grid. The completely off-grid microgrid that Scale is building in Madera can run off of solar and storage alone for part of the day, a unique aspect for this size of a project.

“The developer came to us with a need for an off-grid, sustainable, and reliable power system for their facility in order to expedite their project development timeline”, says Ryan Goodman, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder at Scale Microgrids. “The sheer number of pounds of valuable inventory in this facility makes it absolutely impossible to have anything less than 100% continuous, reliable power. Our microgrid provides them with predictable, low energy costs for the long-term, clean power, and peace of mind. We both finance and operate the system, leaving Amond World with only needing to focus on the farmers and the almonds.”

Construction is already underway for the cold storage warehouses, where inside temperatures will dip down to 32 degrees. The energy system and buildings plan to be fully commissioned by May 2023.

About Scale Microgrids: Scale is a vertically integrated distributed energy platform, with a core focus of designing, building, financing, owning and operating cutting-edge distributed energy assets that offer cheaper, cleaner, and more resilient power. Their team of energy and financing experts accelerate growth in distributed energy projects by providing financing to technology providers, energy developers, and OEMs, while also directly helping large energy-consuming customers ​to take charge of their energy infrastructure and future-proof their businesses.

‘Living lab’ provides blueprint for sustainable residential electrical systems that could reduce emissions by 55% and save homeowners up to 44% of annual energy costs

PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Purdue University is using global software and engineering leader Emerson’s (NYSE: EMR) advanced digital technologies to automate its Nanogrid House, a living lab for energy-efficient home research. Compared to today’s homes and businesses that are powered predominantly by alternating current (AC) power, the Nanogrid House can shift between AC and direct current (DC) power, which increases the ability to use renewable energy and lowers homeowners’ energy costs.


High-voltage AC power from the grid must be converted to DC power to run household devices, wasting time and money. And while new renewable energy sources such as solar and wind deliver DC power directly, this power is not compatible with existing home electrical infrastructure. The Nanogrid House enables researchers to develop technologies to address these challenges in anticipation of a future nationwide shift to DC power.

"As we continue to face extreme weather, a DC-powered home is uniquely suited to the future of energy generation, empowering homeowners to turn their houses into nanogrids of efficient, self-sufficient production and consumption,” said Bob Yeager, president of Emerson’s power and water business.

Using Emerson’s renewable power expertise and Ovation™ software and technologies, Purdue University researchers have retrofitted an entire house to run on its own DC-powered nanogrid. The nanogrid integrates both AC power from local electric utilities and DC power from solar panels, wind turbines or battery storage.

These sustainable energy sources help reduce the house’s carbon footprint by an estimated 55% and lower annual energy costs by up to 44%. The Nanogrid House can also sustain itself for short periods of time by generating its own renewable energy and detaching from the grid through the help of on-site stored energy.

“As consumers add sustainable, DC-based electrical solutions to their homes, the need for a low-voltage, more energy efficient infrastructure will continue to increase,” said Eckhard A. Groll, William E. and Florence E. Perry head of mechanical engineering and Reilly professor of mechanical engineering, Purdue University. “Emerson’s expertise in automation software for power generation and sustainability helped us design a DC nanogrid solution that may someday become the national standard.”

Emerson’s Ovation™ software and technologies provide the project with a digital automation foundation integrating data provided by the home’s energy generation, heat and cooling production and battery storage assets. Ovation software operates as the “brain” of the home by managing voltage control, power distribution and load and intelligently optimizing operation of the nanogrid equipment.

The carrier also announces the first of its Freightliner eCascadia order is ready to roll off the assembly line

GREEN BAY, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Schneider (NYSE: SNDR), a premier multimodal provider of transportation, intermodal and logistics services, will soon begin taking delivery of nearly 100 Class 8 battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) at its intermodal operations in Southern California.



Schneider’s first Freightliner eCascadia, manufactured by Daimler Truck North America (DTNA), is set to roll off the assembly line at the Portland, Oregon, DTNA plant.

The carrier had previously reported orders for 62 eCascadias. Now the company will deploy an additional 30 BEVs from DTNA. As a result, Schneider will have one of the largest electric fleets in North America, marking a critical step in the company’s efforts to operationalize zero-emission vehicles into its truck fleet.

The integration of nearly 100 zero-emission vehicles is an important milestone for Schneider as we are moving beyond the battery-electric truck testing phase to running an operation at scale,” said Schneider President and CEO Mark Rourke. “In combination with rail movement, we can offer our intermodal customers meaningful emissions reduction value by utilizing BEV dray trucks.”

Battery-electric trucks are crucial in meeting Schneider’s sustainability goals of reducing CO2 per-mile emissions by 7.5% by 2025 and 60% by 2035. Schneider has already achieved more than half of its 2025 goal by reducing per-mile emissions by 5%. Battery-electric trucks will help further meet these goals.

Schneider has long pushed innovation in efficiency by running one of the most efficient fleets in North America.

The new eCascadias have the potential to avoid over 81,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions per day. Over the course of a year, that is equivalent to removing 2,400 gas-powered cars from the road.

Schneider is already familiar with electric vehicle technology, having piloted an eCascadia for six months through Freightliner’s Customer Experience fleet. The drivers who tested the eCascadia reported really enjoying driving the truck.

As the leading heavy-duty truck manufacturer, we are fully committed to reduce emissions with our vehicles and to move the commercial transportation industry into a more sustainable future,” said DTNA Senior Vice President Sales and Marketing David Carson. “We are proud to share the same vision with Schneider and to partner closely with them on integrating eCascadias into their fleet.”

ROCKFORD, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Founded in 1966 in Walton, Kentucky, Verst Logistics is an Inbound Logistics “Top 100” third-party logistics (3PL) provider, specializing in omnichannel fulfillment, shrink-sleeve labeling, dedicated transportation, and shipping brokerage with warehouses nationwide.


Several years ago, when the 3PL began observing that its legacy integration technology systems could not keep pace with the company’s immense growth, Verst turned to Cleo, the pioneer and global leader of the Ecosystem Integration software category. Overreliance on legacy integration software providers pigeonholed Verst because the vendors only supported a limited amount of technologies, connections, protocols, and document types. Once it became clear that these outdated technologies were preventing Verst from conducting business with a good number of big-brand companies, Verst began searching in earnest for a modern, innovative cloud-based B2B integration solution to address their evolving needs.

With 2,200 employees, 26 warehouse locations, 7.6 million square feet of warehouse space, and the ability to deliver to 85% of the U.S. in 1-2 days, Verst needed a cutting-edge EDI solution. When the 3PL came to Cleo, the two companies quickly got to work to migrate the 3PL to Cleo’s ecosystem integration platform and address Verst’s growth challenges.

Harnessing Cleo’s flagship product, Cleo Integration Cloud (CIC), Verst was able to tackle numerous EDI and integration challenges while simultaneously making vital operational improvements, including:

  • Reducing service level agreement (SLA) error rate from 4% to 0.24% — a 94% reduction resulting in fewer fees and more positive customer relationships
  • Faster set up of connections with current and new customers since CIC supports the leading EDI document types, protocols, and standards
  • Using API-based integrations to respond immediately to trading partners, sunset batch processing, and ship products to customers faster
  • Utilizing Cleo’s flexible blended services model to help Verst meet customer demands when the 3PL does not have enough internal resources
  • Offering 24/7 customer support using CIC’s cloud technology
  • Increasing credibility with potential customers and winning more business since Verst utilizes Cleo’s reputable technology

When asked why Verst selected Cleo to solve its EDI needs, SVP of IT, Macy Bergoon, said, “I worked with Cleo in the past and I appreciate how Cleo brings a strategic-partner mindset to each customer relationship. And some of our legacy partners just weren't in that category. When I need something from Cleo, I can make a phone call. It doesn't matter if it's a sales or technical person, I know Cleo will help me with whatever my problem is.”

Nordic Propeye’s HVAC solution leverages artificial intelligence to achieve 15-30% energy savings

CAMARILLO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Semtech Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC), a leading global supplier of high performance analog and mixed-signal semiconductors and advanced algorithms, announced that Sweden-based Nordic Propeye, an end-to-end Internet of Things (IoT) solutions provider for smart buildings, has integrated Semtech’s LoRa® devices and the LoRaWAN® standard into its new HVAC optimization solution being launched today in the U.S. marketplace to reduce energy consumption.



Global pressure on energy prices, an increased focus on air quality and efforts to reduce carbon emissions are three factors prompting real estate owners to seek innovative IoT solutions to help manage their properties with building management systems. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates commercial buildings account for 35% of electricity consumed in the U.S. and generate 16% of the country’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.

Incorporating LoRa devices and connecting our solutions with LoRaWAN has proven extremely successful in achieving 15-30% energy savings for our customers since launching our European OY1210 HVAC optimization solution in 2019,” said Stefan Lindgren, CTO of Nordic Propeye. “We are excited to have adapted our solution to meet U.S. regulations and look forward to playing a key role making America’s real estate sector more efficient and sustainable.”

The U.S. version, OY1211, leverages LoRa to autonomously manage a facility’s control of HVAC systems using data from wireless sensor devices that continuously monitor CO2 levels, temperature, humidity, and real-time room occupancy. The adaptive reporting functionality of the solution can detect rapid changes in CO2 levels within less than a minute and the solution sends a trigger to the HVAC system every 15 minutes. The solution also leverages weather forecasting data and artificial intelligence (AI) technology to continuously learn and predict the temperatures of HVAC zones. The predictive maintenance feature alerts building operators when system anomalies arise to prevent equipment failures.

LoRa devices and the LoRaWAN standard are digitally transforming property management with simplified, smart solutions around the globe,” said Marc Pégulu vice president and general manager for Semtech’s Wireless and Sensing Products Group. “Nordic Propeye’s unique solution, incorporating AI technology, allows existing properties to be easily converted to smart, sustainable buildings and delivers cost savings to customers and increased safety for occupants.”

PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--After less than three years in business and close to 100 GEH2® (110kVA) and onboard REXH2®(70kW) electro-hydrogen power generators sold across the world, French manufacturer EODev announces the commercialization of new products from 10kVA to 1,750kVA. The first models will enter production in 2024 and will be available for order from mid-2023.


EODev's assembly line near Paris already delivers one 110kVA GEH2® per day. The objective being to avoid the emission of 30 million tons of CO2 over the next 10 years, EODev now initiates the second phase of its product development by expanding its range to offer new high power "plug & play" solutions for existing customers, such as equipment rental leaders Loxam and United Rentals, and for new markets with high power back up or fast EV charging in mind.

The acceleration of our deployment continues. We have proven the validity of our products throughout the world and built a leading know-how in the design and management of fuel cell systems over the last years. Whatever the applications, the replacement of diesel gensets by zero emission solutions is possible and this new range will allow us to respond to many requests, » explains Stéphane Jardin, EODev's chief commercial officer.

Powerful electro-hydrogen gensets adapted to each market

On land: The new high power GEH2® modules come in three complementary models: a 350kVA 20' container version and two 1,050kVA 40' container versions – an air cooled system of 1050kVA and a water cooled one of 1750kVA – especially developed for highly sensitive applications such as industrial and airport facilities, hospitals, water treatment plants, data centers, or for peaking power plants; but also for events and construction sites — where demand is already strong for the new 350kVA GEH2®. This range is completed by a 20' container 280kW version specifically designed for EV charging, and a modular 10kVA "Mini" GEH2® to meet the needs of the telecoms industry and residential market.

At Sea: The 2nd generation of the REXH2®, in the process of Type Approval Certification, paves the way for the development of three more powerful modules ranging from 280kW (10' container) to 1,400kW (40' container) with a 560kW 20' container version in between. Designed to operate in parallel, these new REXH2® will be able to meet the needs of large vessels, in particular cargo ships such as the upcoming Energy Observer2.

  • The Company generated net sales of $37.9 million as compared to $35.2 million in the third quarter of 2021
  • Income before income taxes of $2.9 million versus $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2021
  • Fully funded pension plan was terminated and a related non-cash pre-tax charge of $0.9 million was recorded
  • Backlog of $47.0 million at October 31, 2022 compared to $39.3 million at January 31, 2022

SPRING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: PPIH) announced today financial results for the third quarter ended October 31, 2022.


“Revenues for the third quarter were $37.9 million, an increase of $2.7 million versus the same quarter last year. The resulting income from operations of $2.9 million was also an increase from the $1.5 million earned in the same quarter of 2021, despite a $0.9 million non-cash pre-tax charge in the current quarter resulting from a pension plan termination," noted President and CEO David Mansfield.

“While maintaining overhead cost management, pre-tax earnings for the year to date increased versus last year with revenues remaining stable throughout the year. We continue to see strong oil and gas demand in Canada and our other North American operations also improved substantially due to increased activity in the district heating and cooling market. Despite revenues at similar levels, the returns from our operations in Egypt have improved as we venture into new products and services.

"Backlog has grown $7.7 million largely because of contracts in Saudi Arabia, where activity levels there and elsewhere in the Middle East have increased.

“Year to date versus prior year both revenue and income from operations increased despite recognizing a non-cash pre-tax charge of $0.9 million for the termination of a pension plan, and after the cessation of government subsidies for COVID-19 received in the prior year. Excluding these non-recurring items year over year, pre-tax earnings increased by 45%,” concluded Mr. Mansfield.

Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is a global leader in pre-insulated piping and leak detection systems for oil and gas gathering, district heating and cooling, and other applications.
