Multi-Year Agreement to Supply High-Quality Verified CO2 Removal Certificates

OTTAWA, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#Biochar--Invert Inc. ("Invert" or “the Company"), a specialized carbon finance company focused on making carbon credits accessible to individuals and empowering businesses on their carbon reduction journey, is pleased to announce the Company has signed an agreement with BC Biocarbon, a biomass waste conversion company located in the Robson Valley, British Columbia. BC Biocarbon has developed a proprietary carbon-refining technology that converts biodegradable biomass into solid, liquid and gaseous carbon products. Through this agreement, Invert will receive a stream of BC Biocarbon’s high-quality CO2 Removal Certificates (“CORCS”), verified by Puro.earth, which will provide the Company with an immediate supply of verified carbon removal credits available to both corporate and individual customers. Each CORC represents a metric ton of C02 removed from the atmosphere, aligned with the IPCC definition of carbon removal.


"At BC Biocarbon, we understand that climate change is among the greatest threats facing our planet today, which is why we're proud of the proprietary technology we've developed, and we remain squarely focused on removing C02 from the atmosphere, " said Peter Popplewell, CEO, BC Biocarbon. "We look forward to working with the Invert team to meet the world's climate goals, as they continue to invest in carbon removal credits of the highest quality."

BC Biocarbon’s CORCS are derived from the production of biological charcoal (“biochar”), a charcoal-like material that is safe to be re-used in a variety of climate-positive ways, including land and water treatment, and helping soils to retain nutrients and water. Biochar is very effective at sequestering carbon and storing it for centuries, driving meaningful C02 reductions critical in the fight against climate change.

“When it comes to climate action, BC Biocarbon goes above and beyond and have clearly demonstrated their integrity and commitment to removing C02 from our atmosphere,” said Andre Fernandez, Co-CEO, Invert Inc. “We’re looking forward to working closely with the BC Biocarbon team to produce carbon removal credits and continue to fight climate change together over the long term.”

The CORCS purchased from BC Biocarbon will be available for individual purchase on the soon to be released Invert App.

This marks the company’s continued growth in green infrastructure and follows significant investment in MAS Ranger in 2021

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CIM Group announced today that it has acquired 100% of the Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) development platform of MAS CanAm, LLC, an affiliate of MAS Energy, LLC (“MAS Energy”), a leading developer, owner and operator of landfill gas-based RNG in the U.S. and Canada, including a portfolio of seven projects currently under construction or in development. As part of the transaction, the platform will be renamed Terreva Renewables (“Terreva”).


Terreva is expected to produce RNG by year-end 2022 and will be a significant participant in the North American RNG sector, with the initial portfolio expecting to produce more than 3.9 million mmbtu of RNG per annum. CIM Group plans to meaningfully grow the Terreva Renewables platform in North America and further establish it as a leading player in RNG.

“CIM Group’s acquisition of Terreva represents a marquee transaction in the RNG sector that came about as a result of our long-standing commitment to and experience in renewable energy, and our strong, established relationship with MAS Energy. We continue to believe RNG is a crucial component of the global energy transition and are excited to contribute as a leader in decarbonization,” said Avi Shemesh, Co-Founder and Principal, CIM Group.

Terreva’s initial portfolio comprises RNG projects under construction in Vancouver, BC; Appleton, WI; McElhattan, PA; Grayslake, IL; and Suffolk, VA, and exclusive gas rights for two additional projects in North Carolina. As part of the transaction, the existing development team will continue leading the company.

RNG continues to grow in use as the United States transitions to renewable fuels, supported on a Federal level by the Renewable Fuel Standard program and by various State-level programs, such as California’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard and Oregon’s Clean Fuels Program. Utilities and other thermal energy end users are also increasingly turning to RNG as a method of reducing or eliminating their carbon footprint, either through voluntary means or regulation such as California’s Senate Bill 1440 and British Columbia’s Greenhouse Gas Reduction Regulation.

“Given RNG’s versatility, Terreva’s go-forward revenue strategy is to include a mix of high-quality transportation-related customers, investment-grade utilities, and other institutional offtakers under long-term fixed-price contracts. This flexibility makes it an extremely important resource in the fight against climate change,” added Shemesh.

In addition to RNG, CIM Group has waste-to-value experience as a partner with Bolder Industries, a producer of sustainable plastic and rubber products created from used tires that would otherwise be landfilled.

Since its inception in 1994, CIM has focused on real estate and infrastructure projects that serve the needs of communities throughout the Americas and is committed to investing in sustainable assets. CIM is an UNPRI signatory and its infrastructure projects have been recognized for sustainability by the California Organized Investment Network (COIN), a division of the California Department of Insurance.

Baker Botts LLP served as legal advisor to CIM Group in the transaction. MAS Energy was advised by Kirkland & Ellis LLP and Cantor Fitzgerald LP.

About CIM Group

CIM is a community-focused real estate and infrastructure owner, operator, lender and developer. Since 1994, CIM has sought to create value in projects and positively impact the lives of people in communities across the Americas by delivering more than $60 billion of essential real estate and infrastructure projects.

NÜRTINGEN, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ADS-TEC Energy plc (NASDAQ: ADSE), a global leader in battery-buffered, ultra-fast charging technology, today announced audited financials for H1 2022 and guidance for FY 2022.


The company also announced strong performance and continued growth in its key segments with contracted business in municipalities, oil and gas, hospitality, big box retail, charging point operators, EV fleets, automotive OEM dealerships, and large last-mile delivery services since launching its U.S. business in January.

ADS-TEC Energy announced a key strategic partnership with JOLT, a Dublin and Munich-based technology company focused on owning and operating ultra-fast charging solutions in urban areas. Installations have already begun at ESSO service stations in Munich, Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Dresden, Duesseldorf, and Nuremberg as well as TAMOIL stations in the Netherlands. They aim to install and operate up to 5,000 ultra-fast charging stations over the next five years.

On the product side, ADS-TEC Energy extends its battery-buffered, ultra-fast charging technology with the addition of ChargePost. Unlike the currently-available, battery-buffered ChargeBox, which consists of a separate battery-booster module and two charging dispensers, the ChargePost consolidates battery-buffering and dispensers into a single “all-in-one” system with a large display that provides revenue-generating advertising opportunities. In conjunction with this addition to the company’s portfolio, the company has completed a framework agreement with a European company that will receive the first 50 ChargePost systems in 2022. As part of the agreement, ADS-TEC Energy expects to deliver increasing volumes of products to encompass thousands of ChargePost units over the next few years.

Also, ADS-TEC Energy announced in August, that the company has significantly increased the order volume for its products in fiscal year 2022 since the publication of the first financial forecast on April 28, 2022. The orders primarily involve the company’s battery-buffered, ultra-fast EV charging systems, but also include stationary storage systems for commercial and industrial applications. For contractual reasons, specific customers and projects cannot be publicly announced at this time. Our sales guidance of €80 to €100 million will not be affected by the increased order backlog, as sales from the new orders are planned for 2023.

After much due diligence and site work, the company has identified the location of its U.S. manufacturing plant and expects it to be operational in Q4 2022.

Financial & Operational Highlights

The below represents summary financial and operational figures for H1 2022:

  • Revenue of €9.4 million
  • Gross profit (loss) of -€4.8 million
  • Net loss of -€7.1 million
  • Operating Result of -€18.5 million
  • Result before tax of -€7.1 million
  • Cash Flow from Operations of -€31,4 million
  • Capital Expenditure of €3.3 million

2022 Financial & Operating Guidance

ADSE is introducing FY2022 guidance as follows:

  • Total revenue of €80 - €100 million for FY2022
  • Revenue in FY2022 will be backloaded to second half based on confirmed order backlog

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Hybrid Train Market by Propulsion Type (Electro Diesel, Battery Operated, Hydrogen, CNG, LNG, and Solar), Application (Passenger and Freight), Operating Speed (>100 km/h, 100-200 km/h, <200 km/h), Battery Technology and Region - Global Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


The global hybrid train market size is projected to reach 745 units by 2030, from an estimated 470 units in 2022, at a CAGR of 5.9%.

The battery powered segment is expected to be the second-fastest propulsion segment in the forecast.

The battery-powered train propulsion has a powertrain that consists of different motors and batteries. These batteries can be charged either by overhead wires or at charging stations. The battery-powered trains are efficient as they have the advantage of lower installation and operating costs than conventional diesel trains. These trains are also noiseless in operation and do not have exhaust, which fulfills the need for emission-free railway operations.

These trains are 80-90% efficient when it comes to recyclability. Generally, Lithium-Ion batteries are used in battery-powered trains around the world. For instance, In January 2021, BNSF and Wabtec Corporation is working on the future potential of battery-electric locomotives and they begin testing between Barstow and Stockton, California.

The freight segment is expected to be the fastest-growing application segment during the forecast period.

Freight transportation accounts for the fastest market in the hybrid train market owing to the increase in freight transportation by rail especially in Europe. For instance, in June 2022, CRRC (China) announced HXN6 hybrid locomotives, which can reduce fuel consumption by 30% to 50%, reduce exhaust emission by 40% to 80%, and reduce the noise impact time of the diesel engine by more than 80%. the HXN6 hybrid locomotive also has a very strong traction performance. Under the shunting operation condition of a single-locomotive, it can haul more than 10,000 tons of cargo. Also, due to the benefit of cost-effective and efficient transportation of passengers accounts for the largest market in 2022 owing to several cities that are implementing new rail infrastructure projects with the aim of reducing road congestion and providing an affordable means of transportation at an intercity as well as intracity level. Increasing urbanization and the growing demand for increased connectivity, comfort, reliability, and safety will boost the demand for hybrid trains. As of 2022, most of the hybrid train projects or operations are related to the passenger segment, as freight transportation requires powerful trains and hybrid train technologies are still in their initial stage to be able to cater to the freight transport demand. For instance, in September 2021, Alstom's Coradia iLint train, the first in the world to be powered by hydrogen is deployed in France for passenger transportation. Considering these developments hybrid train market will provide growth opportunities in near future.

Increasing demand for rapid transportation and advancement in hybrid technologies will drive the above 200 km/h segment.

Electric propulsion is principally used for achieving more than 200 km/h speed. Thus, operational trains having more than 200 km/h speed are propelled by electric propulsion and are powered by dual propulsion. Currently, hybrid trains operating at speeds above 200 km/h account for a less share. The consistent advancement in train technologies is expected to push the growth of hybrid trains with a speed of more than 200 km/h in the coming years. The rapid technological developments in the railway industry are encouraging train manufacturers to invest more in R&D, which is driving the hybrid train market.

5 x C65 System Will Provide Low-Emissions and Reliable Power at a Remote Site

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--$CGRN #CleanPower--Capstone Green Energy Corporation (NASDAQ: CGRN), a global leader in carbon reduction and on-site resilient green energy solutions, announced that Horizon Power Systems, the Company's exclusive distributor for the Rocky Mountains in the U.S. and Western Canada, has secured an order for five Capstone C65 microturbines to be installed at a remote natural gas wellsite in northwestern Colorado. The customer is a natural gas producer operating in one of the largest natural gas basins in the U.S. The system is expected to be commissioned and operational in late 2022.


Fueled by high-pressure natural gas (HPNG) produced on-site, the system will provide power to a saltwater disposal (SWD) facility at the wellsite. The microturbines will operate in dual mode, seamlessly transitioning from continuous power to standby when needed.

Rather than overhaul an old diesel-fueled reciprocating engine that emitted high levels of greenhouse gases, the producer turned to Capstone's microturbine technology. In this extremely remote and challenging high-altitude environment, the microturbines will provide very high reliability, withstand harsh weather conditions, and require minimal maintenance compared to traditional reciprocating engines.

Choosing Capstone met another key customer requirement: low emissions. As the first state in the U.S. to require oil and gas producers to reduce methane emissions, Colorado has implemented strict standards, which the Capstone microturbines exceed. For added flexibility, Horizon Power Systems is fabricating a skid that will make it easy to transport the system to other wellsites. The skid will be able to accommodate another microturbine in the future when needed.

"The producer is committed to using clean power at its wellsites," said Sam Henry, President of Horizon Power Systems. "Capstone microturbines are much easier and less costly than reciprocating engines to maintain. The producer won't spend money on oil, diesel fuel, parts, and employee time each month to maintain the engine. Instead, the lower maintenance costs of microturbines can increase the gas producer's bottom line."

"Overall, oil and natural gas prices remain elevated due to a relatively constructive demand picture, supply uncertainty and the geopolitical premium from Russia's invasion of Ukraine," said Darren Jamison, Chief Executive Officer of Capstone Green Energy. "These elevated prices and pressure to decarbonize the oil and gas industry are leading to more opportunities for our innovative low emission products," concluded Jamison.

Policy Innovation
In order to achieve carbon neutrality by the mid-21st century, accelerating actions by 2030 is strongly required. Due to the current state of global affairs and rapid shift to renewable energy resulting in high energy price, energy security in each nation is at risk of being jeopardized. While some nations have accelerated renewable energy use because of the high energy price, other nations with heavy reliance on fossil fuels will have to take necessary actions to balance its energy security and further decarbonization.
In this session, policy innovation surrounding broad issues such as global affairs and international energy trade will be discussed.

15:15-16:15 Technology Session 2
Actions Needed for Realizing Carbon Neutrality in Heat and Transport Sectors with Hydrogen and E-fuel/E-methane
In hard-to-abate sectors, expectations for hydrogen and synthetic fuels (e-fuel and e-methane) have been growing. For instance, synthetic fuels made from CO2 and hydrogen are expected to play an important role in various sectors such as transport, industry, and household. In particular, electrification on its own will not be enough for decarbonizing the transport sector.
The uptake of hydrogen and synthetic fuels remains limited and faces challenges, and especially so in the transport sector, where it has the highest dependency on fossil fuels than any other sectors.
This session will discuss the latest trends and challenges of hydrogen and synthetic fuels, and what can be achieved by 2030 in order to realize carbon neutrality, mainly focusing on the viewpoint of the supply side to the transport, industry, and household sectors.

Energy Transition Leaving Nobody Behind
More than 100 countries have pledged their own Carbon Neutrality (CN), however there are different approaches in each country for realizing the goal. A holistic approach to tackle both the climate change issue and economic development is required to achieve CN on the global scale. We should also consider if rapid mitigation measures such as the sudden mass installation of renewable energy could accelerate the deterioration of energy security, raise unemployment for fossil fuel industry workers, and so on. The pathway to CN in each country is not the same for all countries, but each needs a local, comprehensive transition approach which incorporates an effective fossil fuel policy, industry policy, and environmental policy. This session discusses the compatibility of economic development and carbon neutrality, and the balance between climate change policy and other policies to minimize adverse economic and social impacts. Possible specific actions until 2030 will be explored.

9:40-10:40 Technology Session 3
Carbon Dioxide Removable Technologies
Commitment to achieving carbon neutrality in 2050 has accelerated development and investment in economically and technically available carbon dioxide removal technologies that utilize engineering-based technology and natural resources, such as forests, soil, and ocean.
The latest IPCC AR6 WG3 report published in April 2022 mentioned that carbon removal technologies would become essential in achieving net negative carbon emissions.
However, to promote the deployment of carbon dioxide removal technologies, we need to develop methodologies for quantifying and certifying carbon removal from the atmosphere using such technologies and for ecological impact assessment.
In this session, we will discuss good governance for avoiding conflict with food production and the challenges and possible solutions related to MRV (Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification) of carbon removal using carbon dioxide removal technologies.

11:00-12:00 Technology Session 4
Sustainable Nuclear Systems
The amount of greenhouse gas tentatively reduced by COVID19 turned to increase again. Giving such a situation, a lot of measures are required to realize carbon neutral in the world. Importance of energy security increased along with the changing international situation. In such a situation, discussion of the importance of nuclear energy increased again.
On the other hand, sustainable conditions of radioactive waste such as sustainability requirements and design along with local communities are required for propelling nuclear energy.
In this session, we will summarize the research and development of nuclear energy and discuss sustainable nuclear system in the context of the timeframe aimed at carbon neutrality by 2050.

14:00-15:15 Technology Session 5
How to Secure a Sustainable Value Chain in the Age of Resilience: Critical Metals and Minerals?
We have witnessed successes and innovations in diversifying suppliers, sourcing/resourcing alternative materials, realizing a circular economy and design and redesign with alternatives. Yet, at the same time, our commitment and plans to achieve net zero carbon emissions are being challenged by increasing geopolitical complexity and perplexities, intensified climate change, pollution and loss of nature, long-standing justice and equality questions, in particular around land use and land rights of indigenous communities. Therefore, more urgently than ever, we need to gather collective wisdom and partnerships not only across the supply chain but also beyond it to rethink, redesign and reshape the value chain, and thus meet the challenges and demand of the marketplace and the clean energy and industrial revolution.
In light of the situation, this session will focus on innovations for securing a stable supply of critical metals and minerals in the context of achieving carbon neutrality, while considering the value chain from the production phase, impacts of international trends, alternative materials, and the circular economy.

Superior Revenue Growth Earns Coveted Recognition Among America’s Fastest-Growing Companies

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#alternativeenergy--Solar America, the leading solar and alternative energy company, has been recognized as one of America’s fastest-growing companies with a coveted spot on the Inc. 5000 2022 rankings. America's leading provider of solar, smart home, and security solutions, the accolade is the result of impressive and continued growth during the past three years.


The award recognizes Solar America’s outstanding growth and success by ranking the company at a time when the U.S. solar industry saw record solar and energy storage demand in 2021 despite concerns over supply chain interruptions and tariff investigations. As a result, Solar America has had one of its most successful years in business.

Solar America operates a national marketplace for solar, partnering with the top solar installers in the nation. The company connects people to the clean energy marketplace by giving them choices. More information is at https://solaramerica.io/.

The list represents a one-of-a-kind look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent businesses. Each of the companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 have achieved consistent substantial successful revenue growth and demonstrated distinctive resilience amid supply chain woes, labor shortages, and the ongoing impact of Covid-19. Among the top 500 companies on the list, the average median three-year revenue growth rate soared to 2,144 percent. Together, those companies added more than 68,394 jobs over the past three years. First published in 2007, the rankings were built on of the success of the publisher’s famous Inc. 500 list of top companies, first introduced in 1982. Complete results of the Inc. 5000 can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000.

The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., in light of recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation, hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”

The Inc. 5000 ranking is now a sought-after hallmark of entrepreneurial success that is often compared with the famous Fortune 500 list and has previously honored leading household brand names including Pandora, 7-Eleven, Zipcar, and Zappos.com and has become a distinguished editorial awards presentation, a celebration of innovation, and an effective public relations showcase. First published in 2007, the rankings were built on of the success of the publisher’s famous Inc. 500 list of top companies, first introduced in 1982.

Rather, subject to the Maximum Aggregate Principal Amount, the Series Tender Caps (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) applicable to the 6.625% 2037 Notes and 7.500% 2032 Notes, respectively, and the acceptance priority levels set forth in the table above, in each case as further described in the Offer to Purchase, Valero will accept for purchase the 3.650% 2025 Notes, the 2.850% 2025 Notes, the 3.400% 2026 Notes, the 4.375% 2026 Notes, the 4.000% 2029 Notes and the 4.350% 2028 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date and does not expect to accept for purchase any 4.500% 2028 Notes, 2.150% 2027 Notes, 6.625% 2037 Notes, 4.900% 2045 Notes and 7.500% 2032 Notes. Valero expects to accept for purchase the 4.350% 2028 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date with a proration factor of approximately 31.7%. As a result, a holder who validly tenders and does not validly withdraw Notes pursuant to the Tender Offers may have all or a portion of its Notes returned to it.

Holders of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date, if accepted for purchase, will be eligible to receive the total consideration, which includes an Early Tender Payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such holders and accepted for purchase by Valero. Payments for Notes accepted for purchase will include accrued and unpaid interest from the last interest payment date applicable to the relevant series of Notes up to, but not including, the settlement date for the Notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase by Valero (the “Early Settlement Date”). It is anticipated that the Early Settlement Date will be September 13, 2022.

The Tender Offers will expire at midnight, New York City time, at the end of September 23, 2022, unless extended or earlier terminated. Because the Tender Offers have been fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Date, holders who tender Notes after the Early Tender Date will not have any of their Notes accepted for purchase, unless Valero elects to increase or eliminate the Maximum Aggregate Principal Amount. Any Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date, together with any Notes tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date but not accepted for purchase by Valero, will be returned to the holders thereof as described in the Offer to Purchase, unless Valero elects to increase or eliminate the Maximum Aggregate Principal Amount.

The withdrawal deadline for the Tender Offers was 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 9, 2022 and has not been extended. Accordingly, previously tendered Notes and Notes tendered after such withdrawal deadline may not be withdrawn, subject to applicable law.

Valero’s obligation to accept for payment and to pay for the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in the Tender Offers is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions described in the Offer to Purchase. The Tender Offers may be terminated or withdrawn in whole or terminated or withdrawn with respect to any series of the Notes, subject to applicable law. Valero reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to (1) waive any and all conditions to any of the Tender Offers, (2) extend or terminate any of the Tender Offers, (3) increase, decrease or eliminate the Maximum Aggregate Principal Amount and/or any Series Tender Cap with respect to a particular series or (4) otherwise amend any of the Tender Offers in any respect.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Marine Lubricants Market by Oil Type (Mineral Oil, Synthetic, Bio-based, and Grease), Product Type (Engine oil, Hydraulic fluid, Compressor oil), Ship Type (Bulk Carrier, Tanker, Container) and Region - Global Forecast to 2026" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


The marine lubricants market size is estimated to be USD 6.2 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 6.7 billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 1.5% during the forecast period. The marine lubricants market is mainly driven by the emerging emission abatement technologies, growth in maritime tourism and the infrastructural developments that are strengthening the shipping industry. The impact of Covid-19, and shift towards synthetic-based lubricants are the key restraints in the marine lubricants market. However, the growing demand for bio-based marine lubricants offers opportunities to the marine lubricants manufacturers.

Infrastructural developments strengthening the shipping industry is one of the factors driving the growth of the market

According to the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS), a principal global trade association for the shipping industry, it is estimated that around 90% of the global trade is carried out by the shipping industry. This is supported by the ship manufacturers and government bodies that help increase marine trade by increasing the size of ships, develop new terminals, and create bigger straits along with the expansion of the existing ones such as Panama and Suez 1Canals.

Both these canals are the two most important strategic waterways that are part of more than 100 trade routes. In addition, the large shipping companies are expanding their network by acquiring new ports in various regions. The increasing size and load carrying capacity of vessels have led to rising trade volumes with focus on the development of more durable and sturdier marine crafts. The demand for ultra large container ships (ULCS) is increasing and is expected to reduce the slot-costs. This is favored by shipping companies, as these large ships will help them catch up with the prime movers.

Mineral oil is estimated to be the largest oil type in the marine lubricants market in 2020

The mineral oil marine lubricants segment is projected to register the lowest CAGR in terms of value, between 2021 and 2026, as they are being replaced by less toxic marine lubricants such as synthetic and bio-based lubricants. Mineral oil based lubricants are being replaced by these less toxic lubricants due to stringent governmental norms for environment protection.

In spite of the gradual shift from mineral oil lubricants to synthetic and bio-based lubricants, bulk lubricant applications such as marine 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines, propulsion units, and stern tubes will continue to utilize large volumes of mineral oil lubricants because of its low cost.
