Business Wire News

READING, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--“Mid-table – very happy with that” said Julian McBride on completion of the opening race in the 750 Motor Club Tegiwa Club Enduro Championship 2022 season.



Paraplegic driver, Julian, kicked off the 2022 season in the opening round at Donington Park on 18 April with a 14th place finish from a field of 53 cars having qualified 27th after his BMW suffered a broken suspension in testing.

Immediately prior to the race, Julian McBride Racing agreed a one-year initial sponsorship deal with the German high-performance lubricant-maker Liqui Moly. “I’m chuffed with the Liqui Moly deal.” said Julian. “Their lubricants have always been associated with top performing German cars, and my aim is to become a top performing driver, regardless of my disability – it’s a motivating match.”

Tim Keller, Liqui Moly’s UK Export Area Manager, said “The deal with Julian McBride Racing demonstrates our support for tenacious drivers who have overcome adversity in the pursuit of success and we’re proud to be helping Julian onward to success.”

Julian drives an S55 3.0-litre BMW E46 M3 twin turbo, built from scratch by Geoff Steel Racing. It includes a Drenth sequential gearbox with a specially-adapted hand-operated clutch and modified brake and accelerator to accommodate limited feeling and control in Julian’s legs. Julian’s support team and is responsible for the modifications to the BMW which allow Julian to compete at this level.

Though still in the early days of development, the signs are very promising.” said Geoff Steel.

Julian became a paraplegic on 4 January 2011 following a microdiscectomy, a routine spinal surgery procedure, which “went wrong”. He awoke after a one-hour operation unable to feel his legs, and within three hours had lost all feeling and movement from the waist down.

Following extensive rehab at Reading and Stoke Mandeville, but still unable to walk, Julian regained some feeling just in his quad (thigh) muscles and attended a Regional Driving Assessment Centre in mid-2011 where he tried a range of cars with various hand controls, and was signed off as able to drive two-pedalled cars. He entered his first Tegiwa Club Enduro Championship in 2018 though he subsequently suffered a broken leg, overcoming that setback to compete in a total of only four races in the 2020 and 2021 seasons.

  • Sustainable jobs revolution required to meet tough but vital climate targets
  • Schneider Electric’s new Field Service Experts will positively influence climate strategy across all industries, worldwide

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Schneider Electric, the leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, has recently announced that it is opening recruitment for 2500 Field Service Experts worldwide, roles that boost the global green economy.


The latest IPCC report notes that greenhouse gas emissions must peak by 2025 to give the world a chance to limit future heating to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels. Change is needed on an industrial level to achieve this goal, suggests the report.

A more electric and digital world is key to a sustainable and resilient future. The growing green economy must enable this by promoting a sustainable and circular economy approach.

Schneider’s 2500 new Field Service Expert roles are set to fulfill this need. Already cornerstones of Schneider Electric’s close work with its customers, each Field Service Expert will influence corporate sustainability and active energy management as businesses across the world contribute to climate targets.

Field Service Experts will positively influence customers’ energy decisions

The service engineer role combines tool-based operations to fix and maintain customer infrastructure with digital technologies and modernize assets, which streamline the job's performance and provide additional insights and services to customers.

They’ll use the power of the IoT and EcoStruxure platforms to digitize and decarbonize facilities and provide advice on sustainability strategies and energy procurement and cybersecurity, safety, and performance. They will work alongside customers to design and implement energy management and circularity strategies, deliver efficiency in their facilities, and sustain results over time. Accelerating on the contribution in savings CO2 for our customers, the Services teams aim at reducing our customers’ footprints by more than 10m tons of eCO2 by 2025 through circularity and energy efficiency solutions.

Schneider Electric’s sustainable service engineers already saved customers 1m tons of CO2 in 2021, while improving equipment safety and reliability for uninterruptable power supplies (UPS).

Frédéric Godemel, EVP of Power Systems & Services at Schneider Electric, said:

“The growth of the green economy is playing a significant role in tackling climate change on a large scale. One of the best ways to reach critical targets is creating green jobs that influence organizations to use greener technologies and make a difference to the planet while fulfilling those who work in them.

Schneider Electric’s new service engineers are set to be powerful influencers and facilitators of green solutions at the heart of the organizations that need them most. We are thrilled to support these 2500 people and the many more they will aid as we all work towards a greener future with better electricity usage. As Electricity 4.0 principles state, a more electric and digital world is key to a sustainable and resilient future.”

  • Buildings will play a defining role in the electrification of the world’s transportation
  • Around 70 per cent of the EV charging will happen in commercial, industrial and multifamily buildings by 2030. EcoStruxure for eMobility provides energy management capabilities to accommodate the increased power demand resulting from this
  • EcoStruxure for eMobility in buildings expands its solutions range with the new 3rd-generation connected charger - EVlink Pro AC

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation announced the launch of a new EV charging solution for efficient, resilient, and sustainable electric mobility and net-zero buildings.


In order to achieve a net-zero future, Schneider Electric recognizes the importance of buildings in the electrification of transportation. It is predicted that around 70 per cent of EV charging will happen in commercial, industrial, and multifamily buildings by 2030, according to Bloomberg.

With this launch, Schneider Electric continues its pursuit to make buildings smarter and sustainable overall by adding EV charging infrastructure in the facilities.

“As EVs take hold of the car market, buildings will take on a larger share of the burden. When EVs become the dominant mode of transportation, people won’t be stopping to charge; they’ll charge where they stop. We will charge at home and also at destinations like offices, shops, restaurants, parking garages, schools, hospitals, movie theaters, etc.,” said Mike Doucleff, Head of eMobility Business.

What is EcoStruxure for eMobility in Buildings?

Combing all end-to-end solutions means that Schneider Electric is offering reliable and energy efficient technology for implementing EV charging infrastructure in commercial, industrial, and residential buildings.

EcoStruxure for eMobility provides more than just EV chargers, it is an end-to-end connected solution that is easy to install, maintains building power reliability, and provides a convenient experience for EV drivers.

EcoStruxure for eMobility includes three main elements:

  1. EVlink Pro AC is a reliable, sustainable, and connected charger that is fast to install, easy to operate and maintain, as well as great for minimizing costs and downtime.
  2. EcoStruxure EV Charging Expert is an on-site load management system that dynamically distributes real-time available power in the building to charge EVs, avoiding peak hours and integrating renewable energy. Via subscription, it also ensures access to advanced analytics services.
  3. And finally, EcoStruxure EV Advisor is a cloud-based operations software that will enable partners to supervise remotely and easily commission, monitor, and control the EV charging infrastructure. This will be launched later in the year.

Over the years since beginning the journey into the electrification of vehicles, Schneider Electric's main aim has been to deliver solutions to solve customers’ challenges when it comes to adopt EV charging infrastructure.

Schneider Electric is working towards achieving a net-zero future, and EcoStruxure for eMobility is just one of the ways in which the company can achieve this goal.

New Effort Bolsters Grassroots, Digital, Billboard Campaigns

SACRAMENTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#ClimateAction--The California Hydrogen Coalition is launching an aggressive digital and television advertising campaign this week designed to win support in the California legislature for additional funding to develop hydrogen fueling stations across the state.


The Coalition has begun running a television ad promoting hydrogen cars to help meet Gov. Gavin Newsom’s 2035 zero emission vehicle goals. With a six figure buy in the Sacramento area, the ad will run for about one month.

The 30-second television spot reads: “Reaching for a monumental achievement… is challenging. Like meeting our state’s ambitious climate goals. To get there, we will need a choice, because battery electric cars aren’t for everyone. Hydrogen-fueled cars fill up in minutes. And they go further. But we need more hydrogen fueling stations so we can go long distances without worries. We won’t achieve our climate goals without hydrogen. ACT NOW. Contact your legislator. Urge funding for more hydrogen fueling stations… so California can achieve its zero emissions future.”

The TV spot complements the Coalition’s other advertising campaign. Digital promotions have been running on local media websites as well as on social media platforms including Facebook and Instagram, featuring the same message. The Coalition also has billboards along major highways in Sacramento and at Sacramento International Airport.

The Coalition also has undertaken a grassroots campaign at fueling stations, signing up drivers to contact their legislators.

The Coalition is pushing for additional funding in the state budget for hydrogen fueling stations to help bolster massive private sector investments. It also is backing State Senator Josh Newman’s (D-Orange County) Senate Bill 1329 to expand the state’s hydrogen fueling network.

The California Hydrogen Coalition is dedicated to enabling California’s transition to zero emission vehicles by expanding the availability of reliable, convenient, and affordable hydrogen fueling. Its members include Air Liquide, Chevron, FirstElement Fuel, Hyundai, Shell, and Toyota.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Submarine Power Cable Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis By Type, Conductor Material, Voltage, and Application" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


The submarine power cable market is projected to grow from US$ 7,643.46 million in 2021 to US$ 11,829.01 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% from 2021 to 2028.

Countries such as Taiwan and Japan have set high goals for renewable energy development in response to pressure on governments to stick to their climate change commitments. The large-scale, fossil fuel-based power generation must be replaced as a part of the energy transition. Many governments have chosen offshore wind as the most practical alternative for achieving these goals.

According to the Asia Wind Energy Association, the focus on wind power has sparked a frenzy of activity in the Asian offshore wind business in the last two years. The region is predicted to soon replace Europe as the largest offshore wind market. Since 2015, China's offshore wind power generating capacity has expanded at the rate of 66% annually, from 102 MW in 2010 to 565 MW in 2014, and it further rose to 7.03 GW in 2019.

It accounts for ~94% of the current operational offshore wind power generation of APAC and 31% of the world's wind power capacity, with over 11 GW of offshore capacity installed as of January 2021. Such progress in the power and IT sectors contributing to the development and expansion of wind energy generation capacity is propelling the submarine power cable market in APAC.

COVID-19 Impact on Submarine Power Cable Market

According to the submarine power cable market research study, Brazil is the key country across this region for the procurement of submarine power cables that accounted for more than 85% of the market in 2020.

Brazil has around 19 offshore oil rigs which are currently active and generate a lot of oil for their consumption & international export as well. In 2020, Brazil's offshore oil platforms witnessed many challenges, such as shortage of labor, shutting down of facilities, government restrictions in the ongoing drilling operations, and supply chain challenges, as international trade was critically hampered worldwide, leading to a decline in the investments in submarine power cables across South America. This also led to a drop in offshore platform maintenance & repair operations across the region, limiting the submarine power cable market growth.

The global submarine power cable market has been segmented into five key regions - North America, Europe, APAC, Middle East & Africa, and South America. Europe accounted for the largest share in the submarine power cable market in 2020. the European region homes the longest inter-connector: the NorNed cable between Norway and the Netherlands with 580 Km of submarine power cables.

Currently, the UK has four major power interconnectors. These are bridging the power gap between the UK and France, Ireland, the Netherlands, and Northern Ireland. These lines have a total capacity of 4 gigawatts (GW) and account for around 5% of the UK's current energy-producing capacity. Aside from the foregoing, there are plans for numerous island power lines and large interconnector cables in the region.

NSN Link (Norway), Nemo Link (Belgium), Viking Link (Denmark), IceLink (Iceland), and the Western Link (England) are some of the projected interconnection plans for power transmission. These factors are expected to further contribute to the growth of the European submarine power cable market during the forecast period.

A few submarine power cable market players profiled in the study are Prysmian Group, Sumitomo Corporation, Furukawa Electric Group, LS Cable & System Ltd., and ABB Ltd.

State’s new energy law creates more customer savings, including through electrification

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#ComEdenergyefficiency--ComEd filed on Wednesday a request with the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC), which regulates the state’s public utilities, seeking cost recovery of $50 million that would support expanded programs to help customers reduce their energy usage and bills and contribute to a cleaner environment. The cost increase would support the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act (CEJA), the state’s new energy law, and ComEd’s ICC-approved four-year energy efficiency plan, which significantly increases funding for programs benefitting low-income customers.


“ComEd energy efficiency programs have only grown more effective in helping customers of all kinds reduce their energy bills and consumption, which also helps us reduce dependence on fossil fuels,” said Gil Quiniones, CEO, ComEd. “Customers now can save as much energy in five years’ time what used to take them a decade. And the cost to customers is still far less than what it was under the energy efficiency program prior to 2017. Thanks to CEJA, customers have more savings opportunities than ever.”

If approved, the request would add about 30 cents to ComEd’s average monthly residential customer bill beginning in January 2023. ComEd customers have saved more than $6.4 billion on their bills as a result of the energy efficiency program that ComEd launched in 2008, with nearly 460,000 families and businesses participating in 2021.

For the first time, ComEd’s programs include measures by residential and commercial customers to electrify vehicles or processes that would otherwise require fossil fuels. CEJA also allows utilities to fund solutions that enable business, public sector and residential customers to electrify space heating, water heating, cooling, drying, cooking, and industrial end uses that reduce energy consumption. ComEd will launch pilot projects this year, including an offering for income-eligible (IE) customers to fully electrify their homes with HVAC systems, water heating, appliances, and necessary electrical upgrades. ComEd will increase electrification opportunities over the course of four years and plans to spend an average of $10 million annually on solutions for IE customers, who earn at or below 80 percent of average area income.

“CEJA is widely recognized throughout Illinois and beyond as ambitious clean energy legislation, and the ComEd energy efficiency programs that it supports will contribute significantly to reducing carbon emissions,” said Stacey Paradis, executive director of the Midwest Energy Efficiency Association. “In Illinois, energy efficiency is a key component to achieving climate targets while reducing household costs, decreasing emissions and improving indoor air quality and resiliency.”

Last year, more than 15,000 ComEd customers took advantage of ComEd’s free home energy assessment, which includes a customized report and free installation of energy-saving products, such as LED bulbs, advanced power strips, low-flow showerheads, hot water pipe insulation, bathroom and kitchen sink aerators, and discounted smart thermostats.

In coordination with the local natural gas utilities, ComEd also offers customers rebates for installing high-efficiency equipment, including air conditioning systems and weatherization. Business and public sector customers can take advantage of a wide range of EE incentives and services, including free facility assessments and larger incentives are available for customers in ComEd’s most in-need communities.

CEJA also encourages diverse businesses and service providers to become involved in delivering ComEd energy efficiency programs, which ComEd will pursue through a new Market Development Initiative that will be funded at a level of $4 million annually over four years.
