Industry produces 23% of U.S. emissions, half of which come from burning fossil fuels for heat. These long neglected and difficult to decarbonize emissions are getting new attention. At The Nest Campus at NYC Climate Week 2023, staff from the Renewable Thermal Collaborative (RTC) and […]
The Renewable Thermal Collaborative (RTC) and Diageo held a sold-out event at Climate Week 2023 to discuss accelerating decarbonization in the food and beverage sector. The event’s expert panel discussed how food and beverage leaders are approaching thermal decarbonization. Diageo and other corporate energy buyers […]
Thermal battery technology presents the opportunity to draw from increasingly abundant renewable electricity sources to reduce nearly all greenhouse gas emissions from industrial heat – a sizable portion of overall U.S. emissions. Thermal batteries convert clean electricity through grid and off-grid sources into continuous industrial […]
Thank you to everyone who joined us in Washington, DC in October 2023 for our fourth annual Renewable Thermal Collaborative Summit! The event occurred on October 19 & 20, 2023, at the Park Hyatt hotel in Washington, DC. It facilitated connections among attendees from large […]
The unprecedented challenges we face today present equally unprecedented opportunities to reimagine and redesign our world to be more prosperous, sustainable and resilient. Renewable Thermal Collaborative is proud to be a Community Partner of VERGE 23, the leading climate tech event accelerating solutions to the most pressing […]
On November 13, the RTC held a webinar with the Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) Council, the Brattle Group, and Roland Berger to explore how innovations in thermal batteries will pave the road to industrial decarbonization. Thermal batteries use simple components and storage materials to […]
On February 7 & 8, the RTC held virtual Partnership Workshops consisting of curated, one-to-one networking between RTC Members and Solutions Providers. These workshops built on the program from the RTC’s Pilot Projects Workshops in May 2023. The workshops allowed RTC Members to conduct a […]
The nation’s largest energy users are beginning to accelerate their transition to modern, clean, electrified facilities. This shift will place unprecedented demand on U.S. power grids and utilities’ ability to deliver energy at the levels required to meet industry’s needs. To initiate a conversation between […]
On April 24, 2024, the RTC convened a virtual roundtable discussion to discuss how state policy can enable renewable thermal decarbonization. The RTC shared information on state-level policy opportunities, including research conducted by ENGIE Impact, and discussed which policies can add the most value for […]
On April 30, 2024, the RTC hosted a fireside chat on LinkedIn Live about our case study Decarbonizing Process Heat at California Dairies, Inc. (CDI) with Skyven Technologies. CDI and Skyven completed a total of six decarbonization projects across CDI’s two largest facilities in 2023. […]
On May 9, 2024, the RTC held a webinar to explore two case studies focused on industrial process heat decarbonization with integrated solar thermal and heat recovery solutions. In the first case study, speakers from Colgate-Palmolive and Absolicon Solar Collector AB discussed how a solar […]
In 2024, the RTC will continue hosting Community Calls, which are designed to support the collaboration and information-sharing that are fundamental to the RTC’s work. The calls are open to all RTC Members and Solutions Providers. The schedule for the remainder of 2024 is listed […]
