Renewable Thermal Collaborative’s Post

RTC Member Ansell commits to setting a Science Based Target! Great to see! Artha Salgado from Ansell will be at the RTC Summit. Come talk with him and learn more about Ansell's decarbonization efforts.

Always exciting to see RTC Members deploying more #renewableelectricity. Congratulations to Stryker on this new #solar project. Come meet Stryker at the RTC Summit in September!

Kevin Rabinovitch, Mars’ Chief Climate Officer, with a whirlwind tour of Mars’ GHG reduction progress. It’s a heck of a team over there at Mars.

Mars is a founding Member of the RTC, and they've just released the 2023 Mars Sustainable in a Generation Report, announcing notable progress toward their goal of achieving net zero by 2050. Mars achieved a record 8% GHG emissions reduction against its 2015 baseline across its full value chain in 2023. Since 2015, Mars has reduced GHG emissions in the company's value chain by 16% (or 5.7 million metric tons — the equivalent GHG emissions generated by more than 1.3 million gasoline-powered automobiles in a year). Congratulations to everyone at Mars making this happen! Learn more at the link below. https://lnkd.in/ghJRcAx3

While #solarthermal technology has the potential to scale and meet up to 25% of U.S. industrial thermal energy demand, there is a policy gap that must be first addressed. Currently, U.S. federal and state solar thermal policies, including financial incentives and compliance markets, are inconsistent, short-term, low-impact, or nonexistent. To help overcome this barrier, we will implement the following policy actions through ongoing collaboration with the RTC community and external partners: -Expand and support access to funding and resources for research, development, demonstration, and deployment (RDD&D) to ensure incentives and grants foster the development of low-cost solar thermal pilot and demonstration projects in key industrial sectors. -Advocate for continued eligibility for federal tax incentives to provide long-term certainty to market actors and lower costs for industrial end users to deploy solar thermal technologies. -Cultivate solar thermal legislative champions to create consensus on the need for federal policy to support solar thermal deployment. -Evaluate opportunities to establish state-level clean heat standards with solar thermal carveouts to require heat providers (e.g., utilities) to deliver an increasing percentage of zero-emissions heating to customers over time.

Senior Director of Sustainability and Operations, Peter Dahm of Cargill, will be returning to the #RTC2024 Summit as a speaker and Program Committee Member! In 2022, Cargill boasted a reduction of 10.97% in Scope 1 and 2 emissions, reaching Cargill’s 2025 GHG target early, due to focused sustainability practices led by leaders like Peter! Hear from a plethora of #renewableenergy advocates when you attend the RTC 2024 Summit. Read what other attendees have to say about the event here: https://lnkd.in/dTkDJPrw

Exciting news from RTC Member Bristol Myers Squibb. Congratulations to the team there on the validation of SBTi's validation of BMS's near-term and net-zero targets. BMS will be at the RTC Summit. Come talk with them and learn more! https://lnkd.in/eu6zd7qS
