Renewable Energy Has Investors Cheering $369 Billion U.S Government Investment

Retrieved on:

Thursday, February 2, 2023

NEW YORK, Feb. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- It may seem hard to believe, but the first solar panels were readily available to homeowners who could afford them in the early 1980's. Back then, the U.S. government was providing incentives to try and encourage consumer adoption. That focus on sustainability has continued — and grown. Most recently, renewable natural gas (RNG), a carbon neutral alternative to traditional natural gas derived from organic waste, has been gaining substantial momentum. The honor for the first RNG facility in North America goes to EverGen Infrastructure Corp. (TSX.V: EVGN) (OTCQX: EVGIF) (Profile), which opened its first facility in British Columbia, Canada, more than a decade ago. Whether investors are interested in solar, RNG, wind, green hydrogen or any other type of renewable energy that can reduce reliance on fossil fuels, now is a time to be excited. In part, that enthusiasm can be directly tied to the recent passage of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which earmarked $369 billion for infrastructure and incentives to accelerate the use of renewable energies in a bid to combat climate change. That's big news for companies such as EverGen, Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. (NYSE: BEP), Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE), Aemetis Inc. (NASDAQ: AMTX), Enphase Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: ENPH), and others emerging as stewards to slashing carbon emissions with innovation.

Key Points:

The IRA is the largest investment ever by the U.S. government in renewable energies , designating $369 billion to support renewable energies.
Several high-profile buyouts already occurred pre-IRA, including BlackRock buying Vanguard Renewables for $700 million, BP acquiring Archaea Energy for $4.1 billion and Shell paying $2 billion for Nature Energy Biogas.
The U.S. government committing $369 billion to catalyze investments in renewable energy has utilities highly motivated to capitalize on this once-in-a-generation opportunity.
Luckily for investors, these aggressive actions are providing growth opportunities that may never be seen again in the energy space.

Vascular Access Experts to Tackle Ultrasound Disinfection Controversy at INS 2022

Retrieved on:

Thursday, May 26, 2022

HARTWELL, Ga., May 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A presentation at the upcoming annual meeting of the Infusion Nurses Society (INS) will discuss the recent development of a policy statement favoring low-level disinfection (LLD) as a safe and sufficient technique for disinfecting ultrasound transducers used in percutaneous procedures such as ultrasound-guided peripheral IV (UGPIV) catheter insertion.

Key Points:

The statement advocates the use of LLD effective against bloodborne pathogens as sufficient for ultrasound transducers used in vascular access procedures.
"As the use of ultrasound guidance for medical procedures increases, guidelines for transducer disinfection must be established to protect patients from infection risk," says Moureau.
Internationally recognized as an expert in vascular access education and training, Moureau is also a member of the Alliance for Vascular Access Teaching and Research ( AVATAR ), based in Australia.
Her passion lies in ultrasound education, specifically procedural ultrasound and the improvement of patient care through proper ultrasound use as well as resident and medical student education.
