SUMMARY:Webinar: Thermal Energy Storage: An Opportunity For Industrial Decarbonization
DESCRIPTION:The RTC hosted a public webinar featuring our three Solutions Providers that provide standalone thermal energy storage: Rondo Energy\, Antora Energy\, and Brenmiller Energy. These solutions decouple the availability of heat generated from renewable electricity\, solar thermal\, and other heat sources (such as waste heat) from when end users need it\, bringing the decarbonizing of industrial processes and buildings into reach. Participants came away with a better understanding of how these systems work\, real-world applications from thermal storage companies\, and what the RTC does to support this promising technology. The webinar supported the launch of our Thermal Storage Working Group\, open to all our Members and Solutions Providers\, which aims to deepen understanding of the technology and to develop a plan to address barriers to its deployment and scaling

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: The Renewable Thermal Vision Report
DESCRIPTION: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 cost projections and estimates of technology availability\, the report identifies five parallel pathways to decarbonize U.S. industry by 2050. Alongside the report\, the RTC published deep-dives into six sectors and eight technologies\, helping corporate energy buyers and policymakers set priorities and take informed\, smart\, and timely actions to meet near-\, medium-\, and long-term decarbonization goals. The analysis behind the report was conducted by the Boston Consulting Group in partnership with WWF. \n  \nTo view the webinar recording\, fill in your information below:\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *Organization *Title *Would you like to receive occasional updates from the RTC? *YesNoSubmit

SUMMARY:Report Release Webinar: Industrial Electrification in U.S. States Report
DESCRIPTION: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. \nMeeting the United States’ goals of reducing carbon emissions by 50-52% by 2035 requires a concentrated effort to develop and deploy clean technologies across sectors. The country’s industrial sector poses a severe challenge: while the share of renewable energy used to generate electricity continues to grow\, so does the use of thermal energy to produce heat. Previous analyses\, including the Renewable Thermal Vision Report\, have identified an opportunity to reduce thermal emissions through electrification\, leveraging the rise of renewable electricity to power industrial processes. \nThis report analyzes a handful of industries and the impact electrification would have on their energy use\, emissions\, and energy costs. Because industrial facilities\, policy\, and renewable energy resources vary across geographies\, this study takes a state-by-state approach\, describing the impacts and benefits of electrification in 20 different jurisdictions. The report makes six recommendations for policymakers looking to electrify their state’s industrial heat use: supporting emerging technologies\, using financial incentives\, increasing renewable electricity generation\, enhancing the grid\, engaging communities\, and growing the workforce. \nDownload the Report. \n\n\n  \nFill out the form below to view the webinar recording: \nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *Organization *Job Title *Would you like to receive occasional updates from the RTC? *YesNoWatch the Recording

SUMMARY:RTC Webinar: Thermal Batteries: Opportunities to Accelerate Decarbonization of Industrial Heating
DESCRIPTION: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 heat using simple components and storage materials while helping to balance the power grid. \nTo better understand the potential benefits of and barriers to the use of this technology for decarbonization\, the RTC published the report Thermal Batteries: Opportunities to Accelerate Decarbonization of Industrial Heating\, prepared in partnership with The Brattle Group. The report found that thermal batteries can be cost-competitive in much of the U.S. today\, and that opportunity will likely grow along with the continued buildout of renewable electricity sources. Based on modeling as well as interviews with industrial energy buyers and thermal battery developers\, the report offers a clear view of use cases where thermal batteries will be most cost-competitive for industrial companies and makes recommendations for policymakers and electricity market operators to further unlock the technology by addressing regulatory barriers. \nThe RTC released the report via webinar on October 5. Speakers at the event included:\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoron Brenmiller\, Executive Vice President of Commercial\, Brenmiller\nBlaine Collison\, Executive Director\, Renewable Thermal Collaborative\nCaroline Jo\, Vice President of Project Finance\, Rondo Energy\n\nChris Kardish\, Senior Manager of Industrial Decarbonization\, Center for Climate and Energy Solutions\nNick Soncrant\, Head of Business Development\, Antora Energy \nKathleen Spees\, Principal\, The Brattle Group \nPhillip Stephenson\, Vice President of Business Development\, Electrified Thermal Solutions \nGreg Wellman\, Technology Manager of Decarbonization\, Eastman \n\n  \n\n\nTo watch the webinar recording\, fill out the form below:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *Organization *Title *Would you like to receive occasional updates from the RTC? *YesNoWatch the Recording  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRelated Materials:\n\n\n\n\n\n  Thermal Batteries: Opportunities to Accelerate Decarbonization of Industrial Heating \n  Press Release
