Utility

The Utility team was in Washington, DC this week to meet with lawmakers to discuss its innovative, cost-effective hydrogen production pathway. Many thanks to Congressman Luttrell from Utility's home state of Texas for an excellent visit.

Utility has been selected as a recipient of a Department of Energy (DOE) Voucher administered through ENERGYWERX. This award entails Utility working with Johnston Engineering which is the DOE Voucher service provider for mechanical testing of cells and cell assemblies. This project will support Utility to further advance commercialization of the eXERO(TM) gas production technology and perform the required mechanical component testing more expeditiously with an expert partner. Our Advanced Technology Center in Denver, Colorado is critical in the delivery of commercial systems and will collaborate directly with Johnston Engineering. The project is expected to get underway at the beginning of the new year. https://lnkd.in/gDtbekJ6 https://lnkd.in/g8yAqMFb #Hydrogen #SustainableBusiness #NetZero #EnergyTransition #Decarbonization

In addition to producing practical low carbon solutions for industry, we at Utility are active participants in the communities in which we do business. Team members from Utility’s Advanced Technology Center spent an afternoon in early November at Bishop Elementary School in Englewood, Colo., building bikes, handing them out to second graders and even showing them how to ride. The event was administered through Wish for Wheels, a not-for-profit organization that provides bikes to kids nationwide. It was truly inspiring to see what difference a bike can make for a child, especially for those children coming from less privileged backgrounds. Utility works on improving the climate by making industrial decarbonization a reality. We also strive to make our communities a better place to live through active engagement. #UtilityGlobal #ClimateAction #CommunityEngagement

We at Utility Global are proud to be a part of the energy transition in Korea and are pleased to be represented by Intralink at the Ulsan International Hydrogen Energy Exhibition and Forum. #Hydrogen #Korea #Renewables #Climatetech #SustainableBusiness #NetZero #EnergyTransition #Decarbonization #UtilityGlobal

All of us at Utility Global are committed to improving our climate by providing heavy industry a viable path to decarbonization. We also prioritize our local communities and recently collaborated with Trees For Houston to plant and care for trees at Tipps Elementary School, in West Houston. It was a rewarding experience enhancing the school’s greenery and contributing to improving our environment in another way. #UtilityGlobal #ClimateAction #CommunityEngagement

Mike Iannelli, Utility VP of Business Development, To Present at AIST Environmental Solutions: Air & Decarbonization Conference Join Utility at the AIST Environmental Solutions: Air & Decarbonization Conference in Orlando in two weeks.
