    Sustainable Mining Starts with Energy Innovations

    Mining trucks that carry loads as heavy as an airliner vs. the facilities of your company, or even your home; what do they each have in common? They each feature similar engines within their power systems. The mining sector consumes 4% of the world’s energy and leads many other sectors when it comes to energy innovations. Whether you oversee facilities, work in maintenance or lead a business, you could benefit from hearing about the mining industry’s journey in leveraging energy and power generation technologies and innovations in addressing economics and sustainability. Join Thomas and Beau as they start with interesting anecdotes around the role of mining in our modern, connected lives. Did you know an average infant born today will need a lifetime supply of over 20 tons of lead, zinc, copper, aluminum, and iron? That is the same weight as about 14 passenger cars. Thomas and Beau then dive into tech metals, and how human-kind’s recent focus on decarbonization, sustainability, digitalization and connectivity drive the rise of tech metals such as copper, lithium, cobalt, and nickel. The duo then take the listeners through a virtual tour of a modern mine site and debate: How do energy and power innovations help the mining industry improve sustainability and reduce environmental impact? What makes some of the world’s top miners get recognized as the most innovative companies? Healthcare facilities, data centers, manufacturing facilities or commercial buildings; learnings from the mining sector that other industries can leverage in their energy systems.

    Energy Technology Perspectives: Microgrids to Fuel Cells

    Microgrids, fuel cells, energy storage systems, batteries, low emission engines; a range of power generation and energy technologies are poised to get the spotlight this decade, and for good reasons. Humankind’s need for energy went up every single year, except 2008, over the last three decades. The increased use of energy — electricity more specifically— puts increasing pressure on environmental sustainability and economics. This is where leading power generation technologies and innovations come to help businesses and the environment. Join Thomas, Cathy and Gary as they discuss the energy and power generation technologies as well as innovations that will reduce emissions and speed up the clean energy transition. The discussion starts with the role of economics and sustainability driving the need for innovations in energy and power generation markets. Thomas, Cathy and Gary then pivot to three energy and power generation technologies that will shape our decade: connectivity, microgrids and fuel cells. The team shares perspectives on each technology including how they work, their impact on environmental sustainability and how businesses leverage them. Additional discussions covered in this episode include: How does connectivity come to life in energy and power generation? What is the linkage between microgrids and renewables and what is the environmental impact? What exactly is a fuel cell? Listen in if you enjoy knowing the latest in energy and power generation technologies and innovations. Visit cummins.com/energy-iq for additional resources. Special Guests: Cathy Y Choi and Gary Johansen.

    Decarbonization of the Electricity Grid

    80% of human-made greenhouse gas emissions are from carbon dioxide, and carbon dioxide emitted today would last for over a thousand years in the atmosphere. These are two reasons to pursue innovations in energy and power generation technologies focused on decarbonization as a part of environmental sustainability. Join the conversation as Thomas, Srikanth and Jeff start the debate with the basics around primary greenhouse gases: carbon, methane and nitrous oxides. The group then debates what makes carbon dioxide get the spotlight when it comes to decarbonization efforts. Then comes the carbon terms: carbon neutral, carbon zero and carbon negative; what are these and why are they important in our journey towards decarbonization of the electricity grid? Beyond the basics, what does the future of decarbonization look like? Many agree that renewables are the destination in the decarbonization of the grid. Thomas, Srikanth and Jeff discuss energy and power generation innovations needed in the journey towards decarbonization. Distributed generation is one of these technologies and works to integrate renewables into our grid. The team then covers the role of fuels, such as hydrogen and natural gas, in energy and power generation markets. What else can energy-minded professionals expect from this discussion? Whether you are a facility management professional, business leader or a sustainability champion, join the conversation to seek perspectives on the following questions: Where do human-made carbon emissions come from? What is the linkage between electricity consumption, carbon emissions and economic growth? How does distributed generation help to integrate renewables and other low carbon electricity generation sources into our grid? Visit cummins.com/energy-iq for additional resources. Special Guests: Jeffrey Wiltrout and Srikanth Balasubramaniam.
