DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global Naval EO/IR CONOPs Evolutions and Use Cases - 2021" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


This report covers the major trends and restraints experienced across the market. Importantly, the changing concepts of EO/IR systems and the future expectations that will be required by navies are explored in detail within this report.

A key aspect that is considered in the changing requirements of the EO/IR market is the technological developments that are underway, with an analysis of their technological readiness and with current examples provided. Three major growth opportunities for companies to pursue are identified as follows: data processing capabilities, extended support to cater to operators with limited budgets, and image processing to enable information extraction in degraded environments.

The naval EO/IR domain will continue to grow and evolve, with countries implementing naval modernization and forcing expansion programs as global tensions rise and as neglected fleets reach their expected end-of-life dates. The need for modern and more capable multi-role fleets comes as European and North American navies become involved within the Arctic Arms Race and as trade fleets require greater protection from growing piracy and actions from Iran.

The threat of Chinese expansionism because of more frequent airspace violations and a rapidly increasing fleet drives the US requirement to develop a larger fleet that can operate within littoral environments, in addition to creating a resurgence of submarine programs across the Asia-Pacific region.

Some of the main trends seen within the EO/IR market include the merging of different sensor types into a single package; digitization and sensor fusion; hyperspectral and multispectral sensing; and a continual need for reduced size, weight, and power (SWaP) properties of systems.

Traditionally, separate EO/IR systems will merge into single packages to increase efficiency. This trend has been mainly in the air domain but has increasingly been adopted by the naval domain. Increased automation has been driving this trend, based on improvements to artificial intelligence and a decrease in the SWaP of sensors.

EO/IR sensors continue to be digitized and fused into singular packages. As the amount of sensors on a package increase, the volume of data needing to be analyzed will grow as well, thus leading to the higher requirement for artificial intelligence and Big Data technologies to be incorporated into packages to automate and enhance data analysis.

Hyperspectral and multispectral sensing will likely be highly sought after within the naval domain, where the capability will drastically improve operations in littoral and high sea state environments.

With over 30 large scale projects in 4 different continents, Ecoppia solidifies its position as market leaders

TEL AVIV, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#Ecoppia--Ecoppia (TASE: ECPA), world’s leader in robotic cleaning solutions for photovoltaic solar, announces today yet another major achievement, presenting an unmatched project portfolio of 3,000MW, cleaning over 4.8 billion panels till date.

This significant milestone aligns with Ecoppia’s global expansion activities into new geographies, answering the burning need for truly autonomous robotic solutions in dry regions. With tariffs constantly falling every year while solar sites’ capacity continues to increase Ecoppia’s portfolio of robotic solutions provides site owners an optimal way to drastically lower O&M expenses, while ensuring continuous peak production.



According to the UN, 2.3 billion people live in water-stressed countries, meanwhile, the fact remains that the vast majority of large-scale solar sites are geographically located in arid areas, suffering from excessive soiling, dust storms and a lack of water resources. Ecoppia’s water-free solutions ensures peak solar energy production does not imply spent of precious water resources.

In fact, since inception, Ecoppia had directly saved over 6 billion liters of water, in the most arid regions on the globe, and is projected to save over 100 billion liters of water by 2030.

“We are proud to have reached this important milestone, while continuing to exceed customer expectations even during this world pandemic. This great landmark recognizes Ecoppia’s contribution to the expansion of the solar industry to even the most remote and challenging locations” said Jean Scemama, CEO of Ecoppia. “Ecoppia continues to proceed full steam ahead to 2022, launching a new robotic platform and remaining at the forefront of the solar automation”.

Net zero strategies require more integrated generation, transmission and distribution solutions


SINGAPORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The integration of renewable energy into grid systems – more than simply deploying renewable energy to replace the region’s large dependence on coal – is the biggest challenge facing Asia’s electric industry, according to findings from this year’s Black & Veatch Asia Electric Report.

“The report reveals that pressures to lower grid emissions are mounting from investors, large customers and governments as infrastructure needs continue to transform,” said Narsingh Chaudhary, Executive Vice President & Managing Director, Asia Pacific. “The introduction of more renewable energy is changing the very nature of electric grid management and this means Asian electricity providers must plan and invest seriously across the entire system of generation, transmission and distribution assets.”

The need to focus investments beyond generation into transmission and distribution is underlined throughout the report. For example, 25 percent of industry respondents are not confident in the performance and resilience of their transmission and distribution systems. In addition, two of the top three threats to providing reliable service to customers are cited as underinvestment in transmission and insufficient energy storage.

“The energy transition is underway across the region with more than 80 percent of respondents saying they are channeling capital to clean energy investments,” said Harry Harji, Associate Vice President for Black & Veatch's management consulting business in Asia. “Solar, in particular, looks set to receive increased investments over the next five years while almost half of respondents think hydrogen will emerge as an alternative to gas generation by 2030.”

Other key findings highlighted in the report include:

  • Only 15 percent of respondents see a future for coal generation asset investment beyond 2035; in addition, 85 percent believe there will be less investment in coal over the next five years.
  • In contrast, nearly half of respondents see a long-term future for new gas generation asset investments beyond 2035 while an additional 25 percent think investments will be channeled to upgrading existing facilities.
  • This aligns with optimism around hydrogen as a zero-emissions energy carrier. 73 percent believe that hydrogen will help meet carbon emission goals beyond any other technology while 46 percent think it will take off as a clean and affordable alternative to gas generation.
  • Advance system control devices is the top investment priority area to improve transmission systems.
  • Almost half of respondents are considering smart grid improvements in the next five years, more than any other grid hardening technique.
  • 35 percent of industry respondents say their organization has no decarbonization response in place.
  • The report also includes insights from large customers, surveyed for the first time.

Editor’s Notes:

  • The Black & Veatch 2022 Asia Electric Report is based on the inputs of 57 senior industry participants with business responsibilities covering South Asia, Southeast Asia and/or East Asia and 33 commercial and industrial electricity customers who identify as readers of our media partner, Eco-Business, between 23 September through 28 October 2021.

  • Ford is planning to nearly double production capacity of the all-electric F-150 Lightning™ pickup to 150,000 vehicles per year at the Rouge Electric Vehicle Center in Dearborn, Michigan, to meet soaring customer demand
  • F-150 Lightning moves to the final phase of pre-production as pickups roll off the line for real-world durability and thousands of miles of testing ahead of customer deliveries this spring
  • On Thursday, the first wave of reservation holders for F-150 Lightning will start converting their reservations to orders; additional reservation holders will be invited in phases to place their order over the next few months. For those who don’t receive invites for the 2022 model year, there will be an opportunity to order for future model years.
  • With unprecedented demand for the Mustang Mach-E, Ford earlier announced it will increase production starting this year and expects to reach 200,000-plus units per year by 2023; within 24 months, Ford will have the global capacity to produce 600,000 battery electric vehicles annually

DEARBORN, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ford Motor Company said today it is planning to nearly double production of the F-150 Lightning™ pickup at the Rouge Electric Vehicle Center in Dearborn to 150,000 trucks per year to meet high demand for the first all-electric version of America’s best-selling vehicle, the F-Series. And beginning Thursday, the first group of reservation holders will be invited to place their orders for the F-150 Lightning.


“With nearly 200,000 reservations, our teams are working hard and creatively to break production constraints to get more F-150 Lightning trucks into the hands of our customers,” said Kumar Galhotra, president of The Americas & International Markets Group, Ford Motor Company. “The reality is clear: People are ready for an all-electric F-150 and Ford is pulling out all the stops to scale our operations and increase production capacity.”

Due to unprecedented customer interest, Ford is implementing a wave-by-wave reservation process, with reservation holders being asked to watch for an invitation via email from Ford or to log into their Ford.com account over the next few months. Those who don’t receive invitations to convert for the 2022 model year will have an opportunity to order a future model year vehicle in due course.

Flexibility is key to Ford’s production system and the way teams are now working to deliver the company’s future lineup of electric vehicles. To deliver this latest increase, a small task force of employees from manufacturing, purchasing, strategy, product development and capacity planning are finding ways to quickly adapt and expand production of the groundbreaking pickup. Ford is working with key suppliers – as well as with its own manufacturing facilities Rawsonville Components Plant and Van Dyke Electric Powertrain Center – to find ways to increase capacity of electric vehicle parts, including battery cells, battery trays and electric drive systems.

“The pride and quality UAW members are putting into building the iconic Ford F-150 Lightning is evident in the high pre-production demand for the new F-150 Lightning truck,” said Chuck Browning, UAW vice president. “UAW members are leading the way in doubling the amount of vehicles Ford is producing for this game-changing model of our legendary union-built vehicle.”

This week marks the final pre-build phase before accelerating into mass production of F-150 Lightning trucks for retail customers and F-150 Lightning Pro for commercial customers. These production-level trucks will be used for testing in real-world customer conditions, collectively accumulating 1 million miles.

The Lightning is drawing interest from customers of competitor brands at a record rate in North America, with more than 75% of reservation holders new to the Ford brand. Production of the 2022 F-150 Lightning pickup will begin this spring at a starting MSRP of $39,9741 before potential federal tax incentives2.

Ford is committed to leading the electric vehicle revolution, investing more than $30 billion in electric vehicles through 2025. Over the next two years, Ford aims to emerge as the clear No. 2 electric vehicle maker in North America and then challenge the No. 1 spot as huge investments in battery and electric vehicle manufacturing come onstream. Within 24 months, Ford will have the global capacity to produce 600,000 battery electric vehicles annually.

In addition to scaling Lightning production, Ford recently announced the tripling of production for the Mustang Mach-E and expects to reach 200,000-plus units per year by 2023. Ford’s all-electric van, the 2022 E-Transit, goes on sale early this year.

Ford is building the largest, most advanced, most efficient auto production facility in its 118-year history in Tennessee, where it will assemble next-generation F-Series electric pickups. Together with SK Innovation, Ford is also building three new BlueOval SK battery plants – one in Tennessee and two in Kentucky – to produce advanced lithium-ion batteries to power next-generation Ford and Lincoln vehicles.

This $11.4 billion investment will create nearly 11,000 new jobs at BlueOval City and BlueOvalSK Battery Park in Tennessee and Kentucky and build on Ford’s position as America’s leading employer of hourly autoworkers.

  • Schneider Electric continues to define the future of Smart and Sustainable Homes in the face of climate change and new energy challenges
  • Launches first home energy solutions made from recycled ocean plastics
  • Unveils new features in the Wiser Energy Center to advance home energy control and optimization

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#CES2022--Schneider Electric, the leader in digital transformation and energy management and automation, and the world's most sustainable corporation 2021 as ranked by Corporate Knights, today at CES 2022 revealed the latest innovations in Smart and Sustainable Homes as part of its commitment to address the growing demand for resilient and sustainable home energy solutions. These newly revealed innovations include the first sockets and switches in the industry made from ocean materials and new enhancements to the award-winning Wiser Energy Center.


The need for a low-carbon future is undeniable and the time to act on a climate change strategy is now. The introduction of new technologies and changing consumption patterns will cause global CO2 emissions levels to decrease 30% by 2050.

According to a recent survey by Schneider Electric, 85% of people believe energy efficiency is the most important aspect of improving their homes, and more than half (53%) believe it’s the responsibility of individuals to reduce carbon emissions. With homes expected to be the single greatest contributor to greenhouse emissions in the next decade, consumers are demanding innovative solutions that give them control over how energy is produced, stored and distributed in the home.

"The last year saw more strain on our homes than any moment in recent history – from wildfires and temperature-driven blackouts, to snow and ice causing grid-wide shutdowns. It's no surprise that individuals are not only willing, but ready, to take the challenges of climate change into their own hands," said YiFu Qi, Executive Vice President, Home and Distribution Division at Schneider Electric. "Consumers realize the value of creating not just a smart, but a smart and sustainable home, and our focus on innovation is empowering consumers to make real change in their homes today."

Delivering Smart, Safe and Resilient Home Energy Power
The latest generation of the Wiser Energy Center, anchored by the Square D™ Energy Center in the U.S., helps meet the global sustainability goals of the future for the home, conveniently providing smart, safe and resilient power. Consumers now have full control over how energy is produced, stored and distributed in their homes. They can also switch from utility to alternative power sources – including battery, solar, or generators – to enhance energy resiliency, optimize energy usage and reduce costs.

  • New features allow to optimize non-utility energy resources in the event of an outage
  • New functionality creates a virtual critical load panel for each backup power source, maximizing available power until utility power is restored
  • Monitoring and control capability of Energy Center allows homeowners to reduce their home's energy consumption and electrical heating/cooling costs by up to 50%

Creating Home Energy Solutions from Recycled Ocean Plastics
Debuting at CES 2022, Schneider Electric is the first company to offer recycled ocean plastic solutions that create a truly functioning circular economy. Customers in select markets are now able to contribute to the reduction of ocean pollution by choosing sustainable products – including switches, sockets and frames – without compromising on durability and style.

  • The product range includes a switch made from polyamide fishing nets, collected off the coast of India and the Arabian sea and features the Ocean Plastic Logo
  • The product comes in sustainable packaging, eliminating all single-use plastic and non-recyclable materials from the packaging process
  • The product range is the first in the industry to receive the international Cradle to CradleSilver certification for responsible product design and steps towards a continuous circular economy
  • Fishing nets account for almost 10% of all plastic waste found in the sea: this new Merten model contributes to reducing the 640,000 tons of fishing nets left in the ocean each year and is the first step in making this range of products more sustainable

In the interest of the safety and well-being of our employees, their families, and the community, Schneider Electric will not physically attend CES 2022 in Las Vegas due to the growing concerns of the Omicron variant. To learn more about Smart and Sustainable Home innovations, please visit our virtual CES presence here.

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#CCS--Milestone Environmental Services, LLC (“Milestone”), one of the largest independent providers of energy waste sequestration services in the U.S., today announced that it has acquired an energy waste disposal facility in Center, Texas, effective December 31, 2021, along with two additional permits for energy waste landfills in Texas.



The acquisition includes the purchase of an active slurry injection facility with two injection wells, located in Shelby County, three miles north of Center, Texas, on Hwy 96. The facility is a cornerstone of the environmental infrastructure in place to manage energy waste generated by E&P operators drilling for natural gas in the Haynesville Shale in Texas and Louisiana. Milestone plans to continue normal business operations for customers and employees of the facility, and also plans several upgrades to the location over time.

The acquisition of the Center facility repositions Milestone in the core of the Haynesville and makes Milestone a leading operator of environmental infrastructure in the basin. Milestone had been an operator in East Texas for several years at its former location near Jasper, Texas.

In addition, the transaction included purchase options on two yet-unconstructed energy waste landfill permits in Texas – one in the Haynesville Shale and one in the Permian Basin. These permits add significantly to Milestone’s portfolio of permitted locations, providing opportunities for the company to further develop its energy waste infrastructure.

“Milestone’s mission is to Clean Up Energy℠. We believe we have an obligation to help our customers make good on their commitments to lower their emissions and produce vital energy for the world in a more sustainable way,” said Gabriel Rio, Milestone president and CEO. “As E&P operators increasingly choose professional management of their energy waste streams, more infrastructure will be needed to handle the demand. We believe the Haynesville will be a growing market given the increased global demand for natural gas as the world transitions its energy usage to lower-carbon sources. Our decision to acquire these assets was a strategic one that supports Milestone’s growth while serving the environmental needs of E&P operators in major U.S. basins.”

Milestone’s Center location is the ninth facility in operation, accepting all RCRA-exempt drilling, completion, and production waste streams. The facility also offers full-service truck and frac tank washouts 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
