The RTC Policy Finder assists companies and institutions in navigating the policy resources which can help them deploy renewable thermal technologies. This database collects policies from all 50 states plus DC, allowing users to search for policies by geography, policy type, and the technologies supported.
Meeting the United States’ goals of reducing carbon emissions 50-52% by 2035 requires a concentrated effort to develop and deploy clean technologies across sectors. The country’s industrial sector poses a serious challenge: while the share of renewable energy used to generate electricity continues to grow,

Many analyses, including the Renewable Thermal Vision Report, identify electric heat pumps as a critical opportunity to decarbonize low-temperature industrial heat generation, which accounts for 29% of total U.S. industrial thermal emissions. Heat pumps have garnered attention for their ability to utilize heat from ambient
Since the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act in August 2022, the Renewable Thermal Collaborative (RTC) policy team has submitted several comments to the U.S. Department of Treasury regarding the Act’s implementation. The issues on which the RTC has commented include: The qualification of facility
On February 23, from 11 am – 12 pm ET, the Renewable Thermal Collaborative (RTC) hosted a webinar launching the Industrial Electrification in U.S. States report, created by Global Efficiency Intelligence (GEI) and David Gardiner & Associates. Meeting the United States’ goals of reducing carbon
In September 2022, the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHGP) published a draft of the Land Sector and Removals Guidance which included Annex B: Biomethane. The annex sought to clarify GHGP guidance on the use of renewable natural gas (RNG) certificates, effectively disallowing their use for RNG
On November 10, 2022, the RTC held a webinar to release our Renewable Thermal Vision Report. The report examines priority industrial sectors in the U.S. and analyzes their thermal energy use by industrial process, temperature (high, medium, and low), and geography. Incorporating post-Inflation Reduction Act
