Environment > Climate Change webinar by PMI Live for Enhancing efficiency and reducing CO2 emissions
Enhancing efficiency and reducing CO2 emissions
The Chemicals, Oils, and Gas (COG) industries are known globally for their energy-intensive processes involved in obtaining desired products. With mounting pressure to enhance efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, these industries must focus on energy conservation measures. Induction motors, being the most energy-intensive equipment in COG operations, consume 45-50% of the total electricity, with even higher percentages for specific industry processes.Given the significant energy consumption by high voltage motors worldwide, it is critical to design motors for optimum efficiency and a lower CO2 footprint. However, the industry faces significant challenges, particularly related to motor oversizing, leading to reduced efficiency and increased CO2 emissions.This upcoming webinar aims to address the key factors concerning motor oversizing and discuss how motors can be designed for specific applications to achieve optimal efficiency and significantly reduce the CO2 footprint. Participants will gain valuable insights from the perspective of motor manufacturers, understanding how motors are tailored to meet the requirements of driven equipment manufacturers while adhering to essential industry specifications.With COG industries under heightened scrutiny to minimize their CO2 footprint and improve energy consumption, attending this webinar will provide crucial knowledge and potential solutions to enhance the performance of high voltage motors while promoting sustainability.Key Learning ObjectivesConstruction of low inrush current motorImplications on motor design due to starting current and other starting criteriaImpact on motor performance due to starting criteria restrictions and CO2 footprintHow to optimise the DOL HV motors design

Environment > Climate Change webinar by republicEn for Glacial: The Inside Story of Climate Politics
Glacial: The Inside Story of Climate Politics
From mavericks to party standard-bearers, U.S. Senators, members of the House of Representatives, and presidential candidates have campaigned for four decades espousing their intentions to address the impacts of climate change.Glacial: The Inside Story of Climate Politics is the first Inside-the-Beltway account to lay bare the machinations of what went wrong in Washington—how and why our leaders failed to act on climate change as mounting scientific evidence underscored the urgency to do so. Glacial tells a story of behind-the-scenes infighting and power struggles that blocked or derailed federal legislative progress on climate change, even in times of bipartisanship and with polls showing most Americans favored action.“It’s hard to capture 60 years of federal efforts to understand and respond to climate change, but Chelsea expertly takes us through each decade, highlighting the unlikely champions who gave it their all—both in front of the camera and behind the scenes—to solve this global threat. You might think you know everything there is to know about the politics of climate change, but Glacial likely will give you new insights.”—Former South Carolina Congressman Bob InglisThis is a free event.Register now!Event Speaker: Chelsea HendersonChelsea has worked in environmental policy on Capitol Hill for more than 25 years, seeking bipartisan solutions to the threats of climate change. She was senior policy advisor for Sen. John Warner (R-VA) during his long-term effort to enact climate change legislation, and she staffed the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, her tenure spanning the chairmanships of Senators John H. Chafee and Bob Smith. Currently, Chelsea hosts the environmental podcast EcoRight Speaks and consults on pro-climate solutions for Washington-based political advocacy groups. Her op-eds in support of clean energy and robust climate change solutions have been published in The Hill, Washington Post, Baltimore Sun, and other publications.
