"Two breakthroughs — divesting generation ownership and integrating system operations — are transforming today's electricity providers while protecting reliability and affordability, utility representatives and system analysts said. But the evolution to a 'utility of the future' will only be completed by how utilities respond to still-emerging technologies, changes in policy and new customer demand, they added."

"By engaging suppliers to create a net-zero supply chain, companies can boost their climate impact, enable emissions reduction and accelerate climate action in a way that makes operationally. These days sustainability is just good business and yet many still risk being left behind."

"The moves, which reflect the electric company’s continued transition to cleaner fuel sources, would help Southern achieve a net-zero carbon goal by 2050 for electricity. Other steps at Georgia Power include extending the life of hydropower units and Plant Hatch nuclear reactors, adding 1,000 megawatts of energy storage, and revamping energy efficiency and solar programs."

"The energy sector is also in transition to a lower-carbon future. Even most major energy companies publicly recognize this. It seems clear to many where things are headed in the long term, but it is much more difficult to predict the trends on a year-to-year basis."

"We cannot grow by subtraction. We must innovate, deploy the technology we have today and support the innovation necessary for the future and not be bound by only what we know today as the solutions. Transformation requires a vision and investment."

"Oatly is supplying grant funding for the farmers to start growing oats and is promising to buy the oats after they are harvested. This guarantee helps offset the economic pressure to grow corn and soy, which sell for a higher value, up to two to three times as much per bushel compared to oats, according to Kunen."

"The world invested $920 billion in clean energy deployment and innovation in 2021, a record high. However, in order to meet the goal of net-zero emissions by 2050, this figure must at least triple in the next few years, warns a report out Thursday from BloombergNEF."

"Though the Wind PRIME project remains in early planning — site plants and locations have yet to be finalized — the approval and eventual construction of the project would represent the finish line for the 100% clean energy goal MidAmerican established in 2014, Greenwood said."

"The increase follows the closure of Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station in 2019 and reflects the slow pace of utility-scale wind and solar development in New England. A transmission line bringing more hydropower into the region from Quebec via Maine was halted by Maine voters."

"GM calls it the 'single largest investment announcement in GM history,' saying the move will create 4,000 jobs and retain 1,000 others."
