New innovative technology fleet introduced in California

RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Performance Food Group Company (PFG) (NYSE: PFGC) announced today the introduction of 10 net-zero emission refrigeration trailers to its fleet at the company’s Gilroy, CA distribution center. Through a partnership with Advanced Energy Machines (AEM), the Transport Refrigeration Units (TRUs) are solar-supported electric refrigeration solutions that are capable of supporting our foodservice distribution needs and have the capability of maintaining temperatures down to minus 20 degrees F.



As part of the company’s Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) commitment, PFG is proud to make the shift towards innovative and sustainable technologies as the California Air Reso Board (CARB) continues its plan to impose zero-emission requirements on TRUs operated and sold in California by the end of 2029.

“With this first wave of all-electric PFG TRUs, we take an important step to cutting down the greenhouse gas emissions from our trucks and trailers and achieving our ESG commitment of reducing power consumption intensity by 20 percent by 2030,” said Craig Hoskins, president and chief operating officer, Performance Food Group. “Operationally, adding new technologies to our fleet gives us the opportunity to take an extended look at how we run our business and to find added efficiencies, which will allow us to provide better value to our customers.”

Since the introduction of the net zero-emission TRUs in June 2021, PFG estimates the use of more than 6,500 gallons of diesel fuel has been eliminated reducing the Gilroy distribution center’s carbon footprint by 73 tons. The all-electric TRUs have accumulated more than 13,000 hours of run time, driven more than 100,000 miles and completed more than 1,000 routes with more than 12,000 deliveries. PFG plans to continue its carbon footprint reduction efforts by introducing more all-electric TRUs to its fleet over the next two years.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Synthetic Zeolites - Global Market Trajectory & Analytics" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


Amid the COVID-19 crisis, the global market for Synthetic Zeolites estimated at US$4.5 Billion in the year 2020, is projected to reach a revised size of US$5.2 Billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 2.7% over the analysis period.

Zeolite A, one of the segments analyzed in the report, is projected to grow at a 2.8% CAGR to reach US$2.2 Billion by the end of the analysis period. After a thorough analysis of the business implications of the pandemic and its induced economic crisis, growth in the Type Y segment is readjusted to a revised 2.6% CAGR for the next 7-year period. This segment currently accounts for a 20.7% share of the global Synthetic Zeolites market.

The most common synthetic zeolite is zeolite A or the laundry detergent. Zeolite A does not have any environmental hazards, and has thus found widespread acceptance as an alternative to phosphate based detergent formulations in the US, Japan, and Western Europe. Zeolite Y type is used mainly for the purpose of catalytic cracking. Zeolite catalysts are the primary type of catalyst being used in crude oil refining. Demand for catalysts used for removing elements such as sulfur, nitrogen, and metals from crude oil are expected to increase due to environmental regulations.

TULSA, Okla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Cypress Environmental Partners, L.P., (NYSE: CELP) (“Cypress”) reported that an affiliate of Argonaut Private Equity, which is headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma, has acquired 100% of Cypress’s senior secured debt from the seven existing lenders.


As previously reported, Cypress, with the support of its lenders, engaged Piper Sandler & Co. to solicit potential debt and equity investors to submit proposals to recapitalize Cypress in advance of the May 31, 2022 maturity date of Cypress’s credit facility. Cypress and its lenders worked together to ensure business continuity and normal operations for Cypress’s customers and employees. Piper Sandler reported the results of this extensive marketing process to the board of directors of Cypress’s general partner and made a recommendation regarding which proposal was superior. Cypress’s board of directors and the lenders independently agreed with this recommendation. Cypress plans to pursue a court-supervised restructuring with the support of Argonaut, the new senior secured lender.

The New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) continues to monitor trading in Cypress’s common units for compliance with the NYSE’s requirement of a $15 million market capitalization over 30 trading days; the failure to satisfy this requirement would result in immediate suspension and commencement of delisting procedures. It is highly likely that Cypress’s common units would be delisted from the NYSE in the event of a restructuring proceeding. Such a proceeding would also likely lead to Cypress’s common and preferred equity (including accrued and unpaid distributions) having no value, given the amount of Cypress’s senior secured debt, which is currently $58.1 million. Further, Cypress would likely initiate the deregistration process with the Securities and Exchange Commission and, following completion of that process, its common units would no longer be publicly traded, and Cypress’s public disclosure obligations would cease.

CEO PERSPECTIVES

“The Piper Sandler team did a thorough job, approaching approximately one hundred parties. I want to thank our board of directors, who have been heavily engaged in helping us evaluate alternatives to recapitalize Cypress. Argonaut is a highly respected Tulsa, Oklahoma based private equity firm that we have known since inception. In 2020 Cypress had discussions with Argonaut about potentially investing in Cypress. Steve Mitchell, Argonaut’s CEO and Managing Director, is a highly regarded successful investor and has been a friend for over a decade. Argonaut had been interested in the inspection industry for several years and cares deeply about our employees, customers, and community. Our board of directors is pleased that Argonaut is interested in recapitalizing Cypress and growing its business, and that Argonaut is committed to the Tulsa community. Regrettably, our equity holders will lose their investment, including insiders (management, board, and individuals that control the general partner) who own ~ 76% of our equity (common and preferred units) and remain fully aligned with the minority unitholders. The pandemic drove a steep decline in our business that left us with too much debt. Additionally, the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) litigation that swept through the inspection industry over the last several years has been expensive and time consuming for our customers, our competitors, and Cypress. Considering this is a people-intensive business, Argonaut has requested that some of Cypress’s current insiders co-invest with them as minority investors,” said Peter C. Boylan III, Chairman, President, and CEO.

“Pete and the leadership team have built a great business that offers excellent paying jobs in Tulsa and in over 40 states, serving blue chip customers. Cypress enjoyed its best year ever in 2019 prior to COVID and the collapse in energy prices. The FLSA litigation impacting the entire inspection industry and its customers is unfortunate but was not unique to Cypress. A combination of these events left them with too much debt and the need for recapitalization. Argonaut has been interested in this industry for several years and we looked at several other acquisition opportunities over the years. As the new senior secured lender, we look forward to expeditiously working with Cypress’s management, board of directors, and advisors on a court-supervised restructuring. We plan to have Cypress emerge with a strong balance sheet that will position them for growth. We remain committed to the Tulsa community and working with the talented management and employees,” said Steve Mitchell.

Supports sustainable innovation for London’s only commuter and leisure river boat service

TORONTO & LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global private markets investment firm Northleaf Capital Partners (“Northleaf”) has acquired a majority interest in Uber Boat by Thames Clippers, London’s leading river boat service, from AEG, the world’s leading sport and live entertainment company.

It operates a fleet of 21 purpose-built vessels, supported by pier network and dry-dock facilities and has a 20-year track record of organic growth through route and fleet expansion.

Northleaf’s acquisition brings new investment to support Uber Boat by Thames Clippers’ ambitious plans to deliver sustainable growth, enhanced infrastructure and greater economic development on and around the River Thames.

“Adding Uber Boat by Thames Clippers to our infrastructure portfolio provides our investors with additional stable cashflows and sub-sector diversification through a unique transportation business with a long and proven operational track record,” said Roderick Gadsby, Managing Director at Northleaf.

“We look forward to partnering with Uber Boat by Thames Clippers to advance on robust and environmentally sustainable growth plans through fleet renewal and route expansion, furthering its leading market position within London’s public transit system.”

Alex Hill, President & CEO at AEG Europe added, “AEG acquired a majority interest in Uber Boat by Thames Clippers in 2006 and has since supported the growth of the business, during which time the fleet has grown to over 20 vessels and added many new piers and routes. It has been an important part of the AEG family but when approached by Northleaf, we knew they would be the ideal partner for the next stage in Uber Boat by Thames Clippers’ growth strategy.”

The news follows the recent announcement that Uber Boat by Thames Clippers is building the UK’s first hybrid high speed passenger ferries, set to launch in autumn 2022.

Ørsted and PSEG Award Contracts to JINGOLI Power and Burns & McDonnell to Construct Onshore Transmission System for 1,100-Megawatt Offshore Wind Farm Powering New Jersey

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Marking major milestones in the development of New Jersey’s first offshore wind project, Ocean Wind 1 announced the award of its first three major construction contracts. At 1,100 MW Ocean Wind 1, a joint venture between Ørsted and PSEG, will provide clean energy to 500,000 homes in New Jersey, deliver thousands of jobs and ramp up supply chain initiatives, like the EEW monopile manufacturing facility at the Port of Paulsboro, all while helping the state meet its clean energy goals.


Engineering, procurement, and construction contracts have been awarded to two firms, JINGOLI Power, LLC and Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company, Inc. The contracts include the installation of two high voltage substations and nearly nine miles of underground cable that will connect the offshore wind farm to the onshore electric grid at two landfall points. Project engineering began during the first quarter of 2022, with construction estimated to start in September 2023. Together, these contracts will support the creation of approximately 275 family-sustaining jobs in New Jersey, including more than 200 high-paying union construction jobs.

The awarding of these construction contracts marks significant milestones in moving the state’s first offshore wind project forward,” said Grant van Wyngaarden, Head of Procurement, Ørsted North America. “We are focused on doing all we can to meet the state’s timeline for delivering the Ocean Wind 1 project, hiring locally, creating job opportunities, and encouraging supply chain growth to help the offshore wind industry mature in New Jersey.”

Offshore wind is critical to helping New Jersey achieve its clean energy ambitions and these agreements mark a significant step in the process,” said Lathrop Craig, PSEG vice president of Wind Development. “In addition to ensuring the project remains on track, it’s essential we ensure that a breadth of diverse, qualified and talented workers have access to the many opportunities that this new industry affords.”

JINGOLI Power will install an underground electric export cable from landfall to B.L. England, the site of the onshore electric substation in Upper Township, and engineer, procure and install a duct bank/manhole system that will house the export cables. The company is committed to providing job training and apprenticeships to local residents and area teens interested in STEM careers through its Competitive Edge program, which ensures project investment dollars remain in the community, building stronger local economies and workforces.

Ocean Wind 1 proves that we don’t have to choose between creating good jobs and fighting climate change. We can do both,” said Joseph R. Jingoli, Jr., CEO of JINGOLI and cofounder of JINGOLI Power. “We’re extremely honored to have been selected by Ørsted and PSEG for this project, and we’re ready to get to work building this critical component of New Jersey’s clean energy economy.”

Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company, Inc., will install a substation in Upper Township that includes an interconnection to a nearby Atlantic City Electric substation. The company will also install a substation at Oyster Creek, with an interconnection to a nearby First Energy substation, and install an underground export cable from the landfall to the onshore electric substation.

Burns & McDonnell is honored to be selected by Ørsted and PSEG to deliver this critical project that will further drive the sustainable energy transition in the U.S.,” said Ray Kowalik, Chairman and CEO of Burns & McDonnell. “With our firm’s experience in the continually expanding offshore wind market and our rapidly growing teams in New Jersey and the Northeast, we are well positioned to execute on this project that will create high-paying local union jobs and provide efficient, sustainable energy to New Jersey for years to come.”

Ocean Wind 1 hosted supply chain networking events leading up to the contract award, inviting New Jersey businesses to meet with qualified project bidders to pitch their capabilities for sub-contracting consideration. Both Burns & McDonnell and JINGOLI Power are committed to hiring numerous, New Jersey-based businesses that utilize union workforces and will also subcontract work to qualified diverse businesses.

The JINGOLI Competitive Edge program also identifies and recruits minority- and women-owned businesses, offering incentives to subcontractors to hire diverse, local employees and prioritize purchasing from community-based suppliers.

DULUTH, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ALLETE Inc. (NYSE:ALE) has been recognized as a company of Special Distinction in a women’s corporate leadership census of Minnesota’s largest public companies. It is the third consecutive year ALLETE has received the honor.


The 2021 Minnesota Census of Women in Corporate Leadership, produced by St. Catherine University’s School of Business, named ALLETE as an Honor Roll company with Special Distinction in the annual research study that examines the representation of women on boards of directors and as executive officers. ALLETE also earned Special Distinction status in 2020 and 2019.

ALLETE is among only 13 of Minnesota’s 79 largest publicly held companies with women representing at least 30% of corporate directors and 30% of executive officers in 2021, according to the report. Seven of the 11 directors serving on the ALLETE board are women and three of the six ALLETE executive officers are women.

Bethany Owen, ALLETE chair, president and CEO, said the company is honored by the recognition and also acknowledged ALLETE’s ongoing commitment to advancing diversity, equity and inclusion.

“ALLETE is a longtime champion of women in leadership and of diversity in all forms, be it gender identity, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation or experiences,” Owen said. “Our view of sustainability in action includes nurturing a more diverse workforce that helps build stronger and more equitable communities and ultimately contributes to our success.”

Owen noted that women have served in senior leadership positions and on ALLETE’s board of directors for decades. Women also serve in key executive roles within ALLETE’s family of companies.

“Embracing diverse perspectives within the boardroom and across the company is part of ALLETE’s values and culture,” Owen said, “and I’m proud of the company’s strong track record of diversity and inclusion. We have more work to do on these important fronts, but we are committed and know we are stronger when we include diverse perspectives in decision-making processes at all levels.”

ALLETE and other Honor Roll companies were recognized April 19 at an event at the Marriott City Center in Minneapolis hosted by Twin Cities Business. Amy DeCaigny, supervisor purchasing, accepted the award on behalf of ALLETE.

In addition to the recognition in the St. Catherine University census, Moody’s Investors Service has identified ALLETE as having the most gender diverse board among 45 utility companies it examined for a report on board gender diversity at publicly traded North American utilities.

The trial of UltraClean BlenD™ has yielded great results, and the organizations hope to reach a commercial agreement for fuel purchasing in the coming months. In addition, Manchester United wants to explore incorporating renewable fuels into additional Club operations, including generators.

“We want to use the power of football to really have a positive impact on our people, on the environment in which we operate, and also on the wider society,” said Collette Roche, Chief Operating Officer of Manchester United. “We constantly want to get better in every area, and push the boundaries further, and we look to our partners to help us do that.”

SWORDS, Ireland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global climate innovator Trane Technologies (NYSE: TT), through its strategic brand Trane®, and luxury retailer Neiman Marcus Group are collaborating to decarbonize the luxury retailer’s footprint through renewable energy, electrification, energy efficiency, and refrigerant management. Leveraging recommendations from Trane’s customized energy decarbonization roadmap, Neiman Marcus Group is implementing significant change through major climate commitments and upgrades at stores across the country – efforts outlined in the company’s inaugural Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) report, “Our Journey to Revolutionize Impact.”

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#CarbonNeutral--Energy efficiency industry leader, CLEAResult, announced a new goal to reach net zero by 2025. The consulting company will transition to carbon neutral on scope 1 and 2 emissions by next year as its first major milestone in a three-year plan that aims to show businesses how to achieve climate and sustainability goals of their own.


As part of the announcement, CLEAResult released its 2021 Corporate Sustainability Report detailing its environmental, social and governance (ESG) ambitions. “Getting to net zero as fast as possible is not just a commitment to our investors, employees and communities,” said President and CEO Rich McBee, “it’s a strong reflection of our core values.”

CLEAResult works with utilities and other organizations across North America to provide people and businesses with best-in-class energy efficiency, energy transition and decarbonization solutions. In 2021 alone, their team averted 22.8 million metric tons of CO2 through program work on behalf of clients. That impact is further represented by the over $9 billion in total savings on customers’ energy bills, including more than $300 million saved in specific programs for low-to-moderate income households.

Calculating CLEAResult’s carbon footprint was the team’s first step towards building a plan for decarbonization. “We followed the GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard for measuring our greenhouse gas emissions,” Keri Macklin, Vice President of CLEAResult’s Strategic Energy Management and Carbon Consulting Practices, explained. “Scope 3, also known as indirect emissions, is by far our largest GHG emissions contributor that we need to reduce to reach net zero.”

The team will routinely refine and improve its approach to measuring their carbon footprint to keep sustainability goals on track. This will include projects such as fleet electrification, reducing business travel, evaluating all goods and services purchased with climate in mind, as well as ensuring that employees have the resources they need to feel confident participating in the reduction process.

“We will continue to intentionally grow our teams to reflect the communities we serve because we believe improving diversity, equity and inclusion is critical to remaining innovative and will only speed up our reduction focus,” McBee reinforced.
