Human activities produce 40 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide in a year as per 2015. This number is higher than what volcanos produce in a year. Looking at this figure might not mean something, but look at it this way. To create such amount of carbon, you’d need to burn a forest the size of the African continent every day throughout the year.

“Smart” inverters are going to play a major role in how utilities manage rooftop solar's effect on the edges of their grids. They could also be a key interconnection point for behind-the-meter batteries, smart thermostats and appliances, plug-in electric vehicles, and other distributed energy resources. On Tuesday, home energy management provider EnergyHub and inverter maker SMA announced a new step in making this kind of cross-DER aggregation a reality.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
