Interesting News for NY!

New York City’s largest fossil fuel-powered plant, the Ravenswood Generating Station, could soon become the nation’s first power plant to convert entirely to renewable energy.

Under a new plan announced by the company, the natural gas plant would be converted to renewable energy sources such as solar and wind.

This would be a major victory for environmental groups who have long fought for the plant’s conversion. It would also be a significant step forward for the city’s goal of reducing its emissions by 80 percent by 2050. Ravenswood Generating Station has been a significant source of air pollution in New York City for years; the area adjacent to it is known to locals as “asthma alley” due to the high asthma rates in the area.

From New York City business executive to owner of Delaware River Solar, Rich Winter is living the good life: converting energy with photo-voltaic systems, encouraging stakeholders, and saving farmers’ lands and lives.

It’s not all about money. It’s about people, farms, land, and the environment. Since its inception, Delaware River Solar has introduced eighty farms across New York to the joys of welcoming solar panels on their land, with fifty more farms in the pipeline.

In 2016, Winter launched DRS and began pulling in people he had worked with in order to staff the new company. He now has 25 employees, many of whom have worked with him for 20 years and one individual who has worked with him for three decades.

We love innovation! ☀

Scientists from Osaka Metropolitan University have found a way to synthesize fumaric acid, a raw material used for producing the biodegradable plastic polybutylene succinate, using artificial photosynthesis. The plastic, typically made from petroleum, was synthesized from carbon dioxide, biomass-derived compounds, and solar energy.

The study, published in the journal Sustainable Energy & Fuels, documents the first time that fumaric acid has been successfully synthesized from carbon dioxide and sunlight. The research shows that fumaric acid can be made from carbon dioxide and biomass rather than petroleum.

The team’s success in using solar energy to synthesize fumaric acid shows promise in using artificial photosynthesis in the future to synthesize other beneficial macromolecules from carbon dioxide and relying less on fossil fuels.
