We're thrilled to announce our latest groundbreaking project with the City of Paramount! Implementing Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) means real-time water usage data accessible from any device, anytime, anywhere. Imagine the convenience at your fingertips - over the life of the system, we're looking at over $20 million in financial benefits. That's a win for our customers, the city, and the environment. It's not just about changing how you view your water usage and detecting early leaks. By optimizing the entire system, we pave the path for more efficiency, less waste, and a greener future. 🌍 Let's turn the tide on traditional water metering and lead the charge in eco-friendly infrastructure. 💪 #WilldanInnovation #ParamountProgress #SustainableSolutions #SmartCity #WaterRevolution

Is our #infrastructure adapting quickly enough to effectively cut carbon emissions from buildings and energy systems?

#ElectrifyZerega: Join us today @ 1pm EST the Online #ElectrifyZerega Community Roundtable! Sign up here: https://lnkd.in/gWDA4tMU or stay tuned for the LinkedIn Live broadcast. Featured Speakers: - H.G. Chissell, Founder & CEO, Advanced Energy Group - Kenneth Jack (BSME, MBA, NACD.DC), Founder & CEO, KenetIQ LLC - Mark Simon, Director, Electric Vehicle Policy, New York City Department of Transportation - Nathan Putnam, Chief Technology Officer, Green Bridge Corporation - Maria Fields, Chief Executive Officer, Sprocket Power - Zach Miller, Director of Metro Region Operations, Trucking Association of New York - Brian Ross, Director, Policy & Market Development, East, bp Pulse Fleet The Electrify Zerega Avenue Task Force (#EZTF) is a multi-member volunteer team inspired by the AEG and Northeast Clean Energy Council (NECEC) Clean Transportation Summit held in Brooklyn on November 16, 2023 where 128 public and private leaders aligned on the lack of an effective community/business/utility engagement model for the replicable, expedited electrification of MDHD fleets within IBZs (especially Zerega Avenue) as a critical obstacle preventing the achievement of New York State and New York City’s climate, health and equity commitments. The #EZTF plans to establish a replicable engagement model with the following outcomes: - Electrified-IBZ (E-IBZ) Community Benefits Agreement Roadmap with workforce development/placement strategy to align burdened EJ Communities needs with economic incentives for business operators in Industrial Business Zones demonstrating high concentrations of MD/HD fleets. - 2 - 3 joint comment fillings summarizing key outcomes from this engagement to the New York State Department of Public Service Proceeding on Motion of the Commission to Address Barriers to Medium- and Heavy-Duty Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure - A Geographic Information System (GIS) based (E-IBZ) public storymap that assembles all key data to reveal priority areas for site specific action with corresponding utility hosting data, community health and education information, local zoning and economic development data, EJScreen data, top level fleet information, land owner information, and job training and placement metrics - A set of publicly accessible, multimedia educational resources including podcasts, video highlights, instagram campaigns and meeting summaries that centralizes stakeholder education assets and resources - Draft E-IBZ Community Benefits Agreement for at least one specific site along Zerega Avenue that demonstrates a minimum 40% benefit to the Castle Hill community surrounding the Zerega Avenue IBZ. The purpose of this community roundtable is to discuss these desired outcomes and determined ideal steps forward that would be best benefit key stakeholders.
