This week, Schneider Electric unveiled the Schneider Home platform, the first consumer energy management system (EMS) that integrates all energy endpoints and household appliances in one interface that can be monitored via a single smartphone application. The Schneider Home system was released a day before the kick off of the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) conference, taking place January 5 through 8 in Las Vegas, where the company has been recognised as a 2023 Innovation Award Honoree for the new platform. The residential platform allows users to not only monitor the energy consumption of household appliances, it also allows users to prioritise power during outages to extend available back-up power during power outages to appliances such as the refrigerator or freezer. https://www.pv-magazine-australia.com/2023/01/12/schneider-electric-releases-residential-solution-with-battery-inverter-ev-charger/?utm_source=pv%20magazine%20International&utm_medium=Bibblio&utm_campaign=Network

In 2021, Total signed an agreement with Uganda and Tanzania to start building the $3.5 billion, 1,443-kilometre pipeline alongside the state-owned China National Offshore Oil Corporation and Uganda National Oil Company. It will transport crude oil from the Tilenga oilfields being developed in north-western Uganda to a Tanzanian port on the Indian Ocean. The project has proved hugely controversial for its contribution to climate change and the impacts on people living along its path. Research by the US-based Climate Accountability Institute concluded it would emit 379 million tonnes of carbon over its 25-year lifespan – much more than laid out in the project’s environmental impact statements, which only account for the pipeline’s direct construction and operation. In a resolution last year, the European Parliament expressed “grave concern” about alleged human rights violations in Uganda and Tanzania, linked to the project. And Ugandan protestors concerned about its impact on the local environment, displacement of communities and the lack of benefits accruing to Uganda have accused police of brutality towards them. https://www.climatechangenews.com/2023/02/28/total-escapes-court-censure-over-east-african-oil-pipeline/

This is so discouraging, This people should be sued and hefty penalties put on them. They are a big threat to our climate.

CS Tuya said the region has suffered adversely from drought and famine. In Summary: -The summit is expected to be held in Nairobi between September 4 and 6. -Last week, Kenya hosted the Intergovernmental Authority on Development member states meeting. Kenya will now host the Africa Climate Action Summit in September, after the African Union approved the summit expected to be held in Nairobi between September 4 and 6. https://www.the-star.co.ke/news/realtime/2023-02-27-kenya-to-host-africa-climate-action-summit-in-september/

Saudi Arabia has launched a mining fund that plans to invest up to $15bn of capital in overseas assets according to people familiar with the details, as the country works to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels. The venture, 51 per cent owned by Saudi state-owned miner Ma’aden, with the remainder owned by the country’s Public Investment Fund, will take non-operating minority stakes in mining projects internationally, the two companies said on Wednesday. That will help Saudi Arabia, which is the world’s second-largest oil producer, to secure resources such as iron ore, copper, nickel and lithium for domestic mineral processing and other industrial activities like steelmaking Read more; https://www.ft.com/content/46bf21a4-e626-4581-ad85-8b74bbd82e4e

Kenyan-born Royal Paint is a company that assembles specialists with extensive backgrounds in the decorative and architectural coatings sector. We are a business dedicated to producing, marketing, and distributing paint and coatings that meet all of your needs while providing the highest possible product performance. Royal products are created to meet industrial performance requirements while causing no risk to the environment or the people who live there thanks to the use of cutting-edge manufacturing techniques and formulas. Our items are approved and meet the current Kenyan requirements. Low amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are a defining characteristic of environmentally friendly paints. The poisonous vapors known as VOCs are what give most paints made of synthetic materials their characteristic odor. Not just during the production process but also during and after the application of paint, VOCs can be detrimental to people and the environment and have been linked to a number of health issues. Formaldehyde, cadmium, chromium, and other toxic substances that endanger the health of our clients, their loved ones, and the environment are not used in the formulation of Royal Paints ecofren products. You may be confident that typical health issues like asthma attacks, eye irritation, and other respiratory issues brought on by prolonged exposure to paint fumes will no longer exist when using Royal Paints eco-friendly products. https://royalpaints.co.ke

Mercedes-Benz has laid the symbolic foundation stone for the announced battery recycling factory in Kuppenheim (Germany). For the first stage of the plant – mechanical dismantling – commissioning is to start at the end of this year. Talks with the public sector about further expansion are still ongoing. According to the Mercedes release, these talks are “promising” thus far. The plan is to supplement the mechanical dismantling with hydrometallurgy a few months later. This would allow Mercedes to map the entire chain in its pilot plant, from the discarded battery packs to the extraction of the individual raw materials in Kuppenheim. “This innovative approach for an integrated recycling concept within a single factory is currently unique in Europe,” the carmaker writes. Although Volkswagen Group Components has had its pilot recycling plant in Salzgitter in operation for just over two years, not all steps are carried out there. VWGC only carries out the mechanical processing, at the end of which the so-called black mass with the valuable battery materials is produced. In the case of the VW plant, the hydrometallurgical processing itself is separated into individual components by “specialised partners” – Mercedes wants to be able to do this in-house in Kuppenheim in future. In total, the Stuttgart-based carmaker is investing an unspecified amount in the double-digit millions in the construction of the “balance sheet CO2-neutral plant”, as it says in the press release. However, the recycling factory is also being funded by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection as part of a scientific research project. In this project, called ‘LiBinfinity’, Mercedes, together with partners such as Primobius, the SMS Group and research institutes, wants to develop a hydrometallurgical process that should achieve a recovery rate of 96 per cent. This will make “a true circular economy of battery materials possible”, according to Mercedes. Later plant expansion is possible, but not confirmed The first reports about a pilot recycling plant in Kuppenheim came out two years ago. Later still, the then Daimler group confirmed such plans for the Gaggenau plant, to which Kuppenheim belongs. Later, the Kuppenheim site was confirmed and an annual capacity of 2,500 tonnes was also mentioned. “Based on the findings of the pilot factory, production volumes could be scaled up in the medium to long term,” Mercedes writes carefully outlining plans for the future. https://www.electrive.com/2023/03/03/mercedes-lays-foundation-stone-at-battery-recycling-plant/
