| | | | Sponsored | | With increasing electric costs and power interruptions, commercial operations can benefit from propane’s reliability, superior performance, and lower cost. Now, the benefits of propane go even further — the Alternative Technology Demonstration & Research Program offers compensation for installing and sharing data on propane-powered cooling and CHP systems. Boost your bottom line with propane. |

| | | | | | Electricity consumption is expected to increase by 50% by 2050, and energy storage, electric vehicles and microgrids are expected to play an important role in meeting that demand. But President Trump’s tariffs on China, along with China’s new rare earth material export restrictions, are expected to slow deployment and raise prices. |
