DUBLIN, July 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Acne Therapeutics Market: Growth, Trends and Forecast (2020-2025)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The key factors propelling the growth of the acne therapeutics market are increasing sedentary lifestyles and unhealthy lifestyles, the rise in disposable income of consumers, increasing awareness about upcoming trends in acne treatments, and high prevalence of acne, globally.The diet and nutrient intake determine the overall health of an individual. The food that is high in refined carbohydrates increases insulin, which results in hormonal problems, promoting acne formation.More than 90% of the world's population is found to be affected by acne at some point in their life. In the United States, there are 60 million suffering from acne problems. This includes all grades of acne, from the mild, occasional breakout to more severe conditions. Of the 60 million, 20% have some form of acne bad enough that it results in scarring of the skin. Therefore, there is an increasing adoption of acne therapeutics which helps in driving the overall market.In addition, rapid economic growth has also led to a substantial increase in the disposable incomes of middle-class people. With this increasing income, people are ready to spend more on their facial looks. Thus, the market for acne therapeutics is projected to grow rapidly over the forecast period.Key Market TrendsTopical is the Segment Under Administration that is Expected to Grow the Fastest The utilization rate of topical medications for acne treatment is high, owing to the high availability of these acne products, with a high success rate and lesser side effects. These agents are directly applied to the skin and need to be used continuously for longer periods of time, from several weeks to months, to get effective results. There are topical antibiotics, retinoids and other products like azelaic acid, benzoyl peroxides which are available in the form of gels, lotions, and creams. Retinoids have been used for more than 25 years in the treatment of acne vulgaris. In recent years, new polyaromatic retinoids have been developed for the topical treatment of acne. The most important topical antibiotics for acne treatment are tetracycline, erythromycin, and clindamycin. Therefore, the preference for topical treatment is more, as compared to the oral mode of therapeutic administration. These oral medications are recommended as systemic therapies, after topical treatments fail to evoke a response. Asia-Pacific Holds the Fastest Growth and is Expected to Follow the Same Trend Over the Forecast PeriodAsia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region, due to increasing sedentary lifestyles and unhealthy food habits. Prosperity and a faster pace of life have changed the Chinese eating habits. Eating too much with high amounts of fat and calories and exercising less have led to an increase in obesity and acne problems. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to register the highest CAGR, due to the increase in affordability, surge in healthcare expenditure, and rise in awareness about safe acne medication products.Competitive LandscapeThe acne therapeutics market is highly competitive and consists of several major players in and local players in the market.

The Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Defense, is committing over $1 billion for this agreement. The vaccine will be provided at a global not-for-profit basis for emergency pandemic use. The U.S. government may also purchase an additional 200 million doses of Ad26.COV2.S under a subsequent agreement. "Johnson & Johnson's global team of experts has worked tirelessly alongside BARDA and scientific partners to pursue a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine that can help to stop the spread of COVID-19. We greatly appreciate the U.S. government's confidence in, and support for, our R&D platform and efforts and the scalability of our vaccine technology. We are scaling up production in the U.S. and worldwide to deliver a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine for emergency use," said Paul Stoffels, M.D., Vice Chairman of the Executive Committee and Chief Scientific Officer, Johnson & Johnson. Johnson & Johnson's efforts to develop a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine have been undertaken pursuant to an ongoing research and development collaboration with BARDA and under the oversight of the FDA. Based on the positive preclinical data recently published in the peer reviewed journal Nature, the Phase 1/2a first-in-human clinical trial of the vaccine candidate, Ad26.COV2.S, is underway in healthy volunteers in the United States and Belgium. The Company is evaluating one- and two-dose regimens, in its clinical program and working diligently to ensure broad, global access to the vaccine following approval or authorization by regulators. Johnson & Johnson aims to meet its goal to supply more than one billion doses globally through the course of 2021, provided the vaccine is safe and effective. Johnson & Johnson's SARS-CoV-2 vaccine program leverages Janssen's AdVac technology. The same technology was used to develop Janssen's European Commission-approved Ebola vaccine and construct its HIV, RSV and Zika vaccine candidates. More than 90,000 individuals have been vaccinated to date using the Janssen AdVac-based platform.

Immune modulators are being increasingly used in animal production as they enable producers to move towards antibiotic-free animal agriculture. Immune modulators are a class of drugs that activate or boost an animal's immune system to better control the development of diseases in animal and its transmission to humans. Companies involved in this industry often use antibiotics for growth promotion and therapeutic reasons. However, due to the pressure from consumer groups and rights activists, these companies are turning towards these modulators which protect consumers' health. According to a report by Pew Charitable Trusts, "Immune modulators are effective against a broad range of pathogens as they energize the immunity system in a way that is less dependent on the pathogen causing infection". Further, a broad range of antibiotics alternatives have been developed for various implementations. In chickens, egg-yolk antibodies used in immune modulators have remarkably reduce the risk of necrotic enteritis. The efficacy of same antibodies in swine enables prevention of diarrhea caused by variety of pathogens. In the USA, an immune modulator was developed to prevent udder infections in dairy cows after birth and recently received an approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Climate change and global warming are expected to significantly affect the egg market during the forecast period. The increase in earth's average surface temperature due to increase in carbon dioxide emissions and deforestation is called as global warming. The hotter climates reduce the size and quality of eggs in poultry farms.

Thus, climate change and global warming is likely to be a restraint for the growth of the egg market in the forecast period. Technological advances is expected to drive the egg market during the forecast period. Egg market practices are expected to increase the use new poultry and egg storage technologies. Companies involved in egg market are also expected to integrate big data analytics, IoT, robotics and other technologies in to their practices.

[Click here for information about joining the class action] Cabot is an independent oil and gas company that explores, exploits, develops, produces, and markets oil and gas properties in the U.S. Cabot primarily focuses its oil and gas efforts on the Marcellus Shale located in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania. Cabot's gas procuring activities in Pennsylvania have been the subject of controversy for over a decade, with the Company repeatedly denying any responsibility for environmental damage observed in the state. The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operational, and compliance policies. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Cabot had inadequate environmental controls and procedures and/or failed to properly mitigate known issues related to those controls and procedures; (ii) as a result, Cabot, among other issues, failed to fix faulty gas wells, thereby polluting Pennsylvania's water supplies through stray gas migration; (iii) the foregoing was foreseeably likely to subject Cabot to increased governmental scrutiny and enforcement, as well as increased reputational and financial harm; (iv) Cabot continually downplayed its potential civil and/or criminal liabilities with respect to such environmental matters; and (v) as a result, the Company's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. On July 26, 2019, during intraday trading hours, Cabot filed a quarterly report on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reporting the Company's financial and operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 (the "2Q19 10-Q"). The 2Q19 10-Q disclosed that the Company had received two proposed Consent Order and Agreements ("CO&As") related to two Notices of Violation ("NOVs") it had received from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection ("PaDEP") back in June and November 2017, respectively, for failure to prevent the migration of gas into fresh groundwater sources in the area surrounding Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania. Following the release of the 2Q19 10-Q, Cabot's stock price fell $2.63per share, or 12.07%, to close at $19.16 per share on July 26, 2019. Then, on June 15, 2020, during pre-market hours, following a grand jury investigation, the Pennsylvania attorney general's office charged Cabot with fifteen criminal counts arising from its failure to fix faulty gas wells, thereby polluting Pennsylvania's water supplies through stray gas migration. On this news, Cabot's stock price fell $0.67 per share, or 3.34%, to close at $19.40 per share on June 15, 2020.

VALLETTA, Malta, May 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- OKEx (www.okex.com), the world's largest cryptocurrency spot and derivatives exchange,announced the 0.10 version of OKChain, the commercial public chain developed by OKEx, will be launched on May 25. The rules of validator selection and dividend mechanism have been revealed at the same time. Users who have staked OKT token can vote for up to 30 candidates with one ballot, generating 21 validators. After the update, OKChain will become the first public chain developed by crypto exchange to support the access of third-party institutions. At the same time, OKChain launched the recruitment of validator candidates globally and invited users and institutions to participate. "We hope that more users and institutions will participate in OKChain. The foundation of OKChain's ecological construction is an important preparation before the launch of the OKChain mainnet," said Alysa Xu, Chief Strategy Officer of OKEx. "Based on the new 0.10 version, users can realize their will through the voting mechanism and make choices that are in line with their own interests and diversified the development of OKChain. We are looking forward to co-constructing an open, decentralized, practical, and diverse ecosystem with our global users." OKChain, an permissionless and decentralized public chain Compared to other exchange public chains, OKChain tends to adhere to the ideals of decentralization, fully utilizing the nature of peer-to-peer network, irreversibility, and efficient autonomy in its source code. Given that, all participants, including OKEx as the developer, cannot control this public chain. In addition, instead of requiring nodes to submit a proposal to the public chain "governor" before every action in traditional public chain, OKChain adopts a "peer-to-peer network", which enables node runners to develop DEX and dApp or decide which cryptocurrencies and trading pairs to list without having to acquire any permission from the "governor". In a nutshell, OKChain is a fully community autonomous public chain. Voting rules empowers voters with a high degree of autonomy OKChain adopts a representative system. OKT holders who have staked OKT token will become voters, who can choose to become an "Ordinary voter" to vote for validators directly or delegate their voting power to another account, called "proxy voter" to vote on their behalf. Each voter is allowed to vote for up to 30 validator candidates. For example, if a user staked 100 OKT, they can cast 100 ballots each for up to 30 validator candidates. The top 21 candidates with the highest number of votes will form the core set of validators while others will serve as validator candidates. Having 21 validators is the most mature solution, it can maximize the balance between the degree of decentralization within the ecology and the efficiency of ecological operation. As of the voting mechanism, compared with "choosing the best one" and "choosing a few good ones", the latter is more fault-tolerant. In addition, it can also effectively weaken the influence of large OKT holders in the initial stage of the OKChain mainnet launch, so that the voting results will reflect the wishes of all OKT holders within the OKChain ecosystem better. OpenDEX & DEX Operator, new concepts introduced by OKChain In 0.10 version, OKChain pioneered the concepts of "OpenDEX model" and "DEX Operator". Under the OpenDEX model, OKChain will offer all needed core technology to nodes, distinguishing public chain operator from DEX operator, which were combined as one in most cases before. The new concepts make the relationship between DEX operator and public chain operator more similar to the relationship between ETH chain and ERC20. OKChain allows all nodes to construct their own DEX and trading pairs without any threshold. What's more, nodes not only do not have to pay high cost for server and technology, they will also own the future continuous benefits. Multiple sources of incomes from OKChain "The core goal of the 0.10 version of OKChain testnet is to further clarify the rights and interests that node users can share in the OKChain ecosystem," said Alysa Xu. "Users who participate in the OKChain ecosystem construction through different identities can obtain multiple benefits, including block generation reward, voting reward, matching fee, transaction fee, etc." According to public information, 100% of the genesis block OKT will be mapped to OKB holders, which means OKB holders will become the first batch of OKT holders and get a head start in some spheres, including becoming supernodes, voting, DEX operation, etc. Besides, additional OKT will be issued 1-5% annually, part of which is expected to act as block generation reward and the other as voting reward. Apart from that, DEX operators will also obtain matching fee, transaction fee etc. as income. About OKEx The world's largest and most diverse cryptocurrency marketplace, OKEx is where global crypto traders, miners, and institutional investors come to manage crypto assets, enhance investment opportunities, and hedge risks.

WEST DES MOINES, Iowa, Dec. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Wolfe Eye Clinic announced today that Dr. Jared Nielsen, Retina Disease Specialist at Wolfe Eye Clinic was recently the third surgeon in the United States and first in the Midwest to perform surgery in a clinic trial evaluating an investigational gene therapy called GT005 for geographic atrophy secondary to dry age-related macular degeneration. Dr. Jared Nielsen of Wolfe Eye Clinic exams first patient in clinical trial evaluating an investigational gene therapy for geographic atrophy secondary to dry age-related macular degeneration in November 2020. Geographic atrophy (GA) is an advanced form of age-related macular degeneration that can result in the progressive and irreversible loss of retina, which can lead to loss of visual function over time. There are an estimated 1.4 million Americans affected by GA and there are currently no FDA-approved medicines for this disease. Dr Nielsen is an investigator in a study called FOCUS [NCT03846193], which is an open-label Phase I/II clinical trial evaluating the safety and dose response of three doses of GT005 given as a single subretinal injection. The trial is evaluating adults aged 55 and older who have been diagnosed with GA secondary to dry AMD. "Geographic atrophy is a life-altering diagnosis, in large part because there are currently no treatments available and it results in permanent loss of vision," said Jared Nielsen, MD, MBA and Director of Retina Clinical Trials at Wolfe Eye Clinic. "We are excited to participate in this study and look forward to advancing this important research with the goal of providing better care for our patients and those around the world." ABOUT GT005GT005 is an investigational gene therapy for geographic atrophy that uses a genetically modified virus to make the cells in the eye produce more of a type of protein called Complement Factor I (CFI). Low levels of CFI are potentially linked with AMD and GA. By raising the levels of CFI in the eye, it may be possible to slow down the progression of AMD and GA, and so GT005 may help slow down the disease. GT005 has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for any use and its efficacy and safety profile have not been established. GT005 is being developed by Gyroscope Therapeutics Limited, a clinical-stage retinal gene therapy company.

Contract management is not an occupation college students often think of, but for working adults in the field, it can be a smart career move. "Just about everything in both the public and private sector is managed by contract," the editors of Great Business Schools explain; "Someone needs to get the contract details right, make sure the language of the contract works, analyze contract proposals, negotiate on contract terms, and do everything else that's inherent in a contract of any type." "Contract management isn't a single thing, as the job duties of a contract manager can vary widely depending on what types of contracts or industries the contract manager works with," they explain; " This means there's a lot of room for specialization in contract management as well as a lot of different avenues a contract management professional can take." According to Great Business Schools, "These are incredibly important positions and job types and a contract management degree is the first step towards becoming part of that process." GBS editors know that prospective students want a degree they can use. Because most students interested in contract management are probably already working, Great Business Schools ranks both online and traditional programs. By featuring accredited, reputable institutions, GBS ensures that prospective students can trust their choices. Going to the right school is important for every student. Great Business Schools doesn't get caught up about which schools are the "best." They focus on what makes business schools great places for students to learn and grow. Rankings and resources that reflect a wide range of needs and priorities are what set GBS apart.

Hyundai Elantra Named Finalist For 2021 North American Car of the Year

BENSALEM, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased Braskem S.A. (Braskem or the Company) (NYSE: BAK) securities between May 6, 2016 and July 8, 2020, inclusive (the Class Period). Braskem investors have until October 26, 2020 to file a lead plaintiff motion. Investors suffering losses on their Braskem investments are encouraged to contact the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith to discuss their legal rights in this class action at 888-638-4847 or by email to howardsmith@howardsmithlaw.com. On April 2, 2019, media reported that Braskem was sued by local authorities in connection with a geological event that the Company had purportedly caused in Alagoas, Brazil. The same day, the Company disclosed that the lawsuits were requesting the freezing of amounts and assets in a total of approximately R$6.7 billion to guarantee any potential damages owed to the general public. On this news, the Companys share price fell $1.60, or 6%, over two trading sessions to close at $25.14 per share on April 3, 2020. Then, on July 9, 2020, before the market opened, Braskem disclosed that the geological damage from its salt mining operations was more widespread than initial estimates. Specifically, the Company disclosed that 1,918 properties needed to be evacuated, which would cost Braskem R$850 million in possible payments to those residents and R$750 million in expenses to definitively shut down Braskems salt mining operations. On this news, the Companys share price fell $0.59, or 6%, to close at $8.93 per share on July 9, 2020, thereby damaging investors. The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Companys business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (1) that Braskems salt mining operations were unsafe and presented a significant danger to surrounding areas, including nearly two thousand properties; (2) that the foregoing foreseeably increased the risk that Braskem would be subjected to remedial liabilities, including, but not limited to, increased governmental and/or regulatory oversight or enforcement, significant monetary and reputational damage, and/or the permanent closure of one or more of its salt mining operations; (3) that, accordingly, earnings generated from Braskems salt mining operations were unsustainable; (4) that Braskem downplayed the true scope and severity of the Companys liability with respect to its salt mining operations; and (5) that, as a result, the Companys public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. If you purchased Braskem securities, have information or would like to learn more about these claims, or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Howard G. Smith, Esquire, of Law Offices of Howard G.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Micro Inverter Market - Growth, Trends, and Forecast (2020-2025)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The Micro Inverter Market is expected to register a CAGR of 20.8% during the forecast period of 2020-2025. Microinverter is a device which converts direct current (DC) generated by solar cells to alternating current (AC). The demand for these inverters is increasing amongst the commercial sector on account of increasing electricity cost and longer installation duration of string inverters. The factors like enabling module-level monitoring, easier installation, enhanced design flexibility, removing the need for DC switching points and better safety than conventional inverters are some factors that are fueling the growth of micro inverter market. The microinverter market is driven by constant R&D activities and significant reduction in the costs of microinverters. Further, market also receives a great boost due to its compact size and versatility. Also, increasing requirement of consumers, based on modularity, safety, and maximum energy harvest will continue to drive the market at a considerable pace in the forecast period. Due to COVID-19 pandemic spread around the world, disruption in supply of micro inverters has quickly turned to an unprecedented stall in global demand, switching the industry almost overnight from a sellers' market to a buyer's markets. COVID-19 is also expected to severely hit the planning and completion of new projects in 2020 for this market. In solar, a shortage of installation components including inverters and modules is pushing prices up by as much as 15 per cent in markets like United States.

NEW YORK, June 8, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Despite the "work from home" advantages of wearing pajamas all day and avoiding a commute, when asked what they missed most about face-to-face contact with business associates, over 340 media and advertising executives agreed that they miss several teamwork benefits of face-to-face connectionsbut proximity to "the boss" isn't high on the list. According to results from The 614 Group's "The Future of the 'In-Person' Business Economy," a new, ongoing tracking survey of professionals from advertising agencies, marketers, publishers, and ad tech companies, the top things that they miss about in-person business interactions are "simple human contact with others on the team" and "the ability to network beyond my immediate circle" (25% each). Those responses were closely followed by "being able to get things done with short unscheduled conversations" and "cultivating relationships among colleagues" (21% and 20% respectively). In sharp comparison, merely 10 percent cited "onsite access to bosses." In response to a question asking if attendance at in-person events will go back to pre-pandemic levels once the virus runs its course, a third said "no," while more than a quarter (27%) felt it was too soon to tell. Less than a fifth (19%) stated that attendance at in-person gatherings and conferences would return to prior levels. Still, findings make clear that there will be a lasting impact on the industry's events business, with more than half (51%) of respondents expecting that all live gatherings and conferences will have some sort of virtual dimension post-pandemic. To better understand the role that in-person event attendance played in businesses before the crisis, the research asked respondents about their primary reasons for going to the live gatherings and conferences. The two most frequent responses were "opportunity to learn about the latest developments in the industry" and "a way to meet new business prospects and generate leads" (68% and 64% respectively). Respondents also noted that live events served as an opportunity to "spend quality time with current clients" and provide "social time with peers" (56% and 44% respectively). When asked about what types of virtual events will regularly occur in the future, four different formats emerged as contenders: Global virtual events with live video feeds from headliners speaking about big issues (62%) Virtual events designed to foster community and share thought leadership among defined groups of experts/specialists (59%) Global virtual gatherings of country and regional experts to foster global communities of those experts (51%) Member only virtual networking gatherings designed to connect businesses with prospects (47%) In addition, nearly a quarter of respondents said that "AR/VR experiences shared by remote event attendees with the goal of creating unique opportunities to demonstrate/try new products/services" are on the near-term horizon. "This series of findings will provide the industry a window into the future of doing business in 2020including the most critical needs we need to address in virtual environmentsas the world inches out of lockdown," said Rob Rasko, Founder and CEO, The 614 Group. "Smart, well-curated virtual events can help bring the ecosystem together at this crucial time, allowing us to move forward, while navigating unpredictable terrain," said John Montgomery, Executive Vice President, Global Brand Safety, GroupM. "I've already been a part of a handful of standout virtual gatherings and look forward to participating in more." "The research offers insights into the kinds of virtual events, gatherings and human connections that could help professionals successfully build and conduct business in the 'new normal' that is taking shape," said Sherrill Mane, Managing Director, Research and Media Strategy, The 614 Group, who is spearheading "The Future of the 'In-Person' Business Economy" initiative.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Electric Toothbrush Market Research Report: By Bristle, Head Movement, Product Type, Distribution Channel, End User - Industry Analysis and Growth Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The global electric toothbrush market generated a revenue of $2.7 billion in 2019 and is predicted to progress at a CAGR of 5.7% between 2020 and 2030 and reach a valuation of $4.8 billion by 2030. The key factors driving the progress of the market are the growing public awareness about the various benefits of electric toothbrushes and unhealthy dietary habits of people around the world. Some of the most highly prevalent unhealthy eating habits are the consumption of sugar-rich foods, tobacco, and alcohol. These consumption habits have detrimental effects on the oral hygiene of a person. Moreover, these habits are pushing up the requirement for smart toothbrushes, which is, in turn, fueling the sales of electric toothbrushes. For example, as per the IDF Diabetes Atlas 2019, the worldwide incidence of diabetes in people in the age group 20-79 years was nearly 463 million. The main factor fueling the boom of the electric toothbrush market in the APAC region is the growing popularity of online shopping in the region. This is causing a sharp surge in the availability of electric toothbrushes, especially in the emerging economies. As per the India Brand Equity Foundation, the e-commerce industry in India is exhibiting an upward growth and is predicted to surpass the U.S. market and become the world's second largest industry by 2034. Hence, it can be said with confidence that the market would demonstrate huge expansion across the world in the coming years, primarily because of the growing incidence of dental health problems, the increasing consumption of tobacco, alcohol, and sugary foods, and the rising popularity of technologically advanced devices.

COLUMBIA, Md. and MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Nov. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Black holes are thought to gobble up so much surrounding material that they put an end to the life of their host galaxy. In that process they create a highly energetic object called a quasar which was previously thought to halt star birth. Now researchers have found a galaxy that is surviving the ravenous forces of a quasar by continuing to birth new stars about 100 Sun-sized stars a year. The discovery made by the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) can explain how massive galaxies came to be even though the Universe is dominated by galaxies that no longer form stars. The results are published in the Astrophysical Journal. "This shows us that the growth of active black holes doesn't stop star birth instantaneously, which goes against all the current scientific predictions," said Allison Kirkpatrick, assistant professor at the University of Kansas in Lawrence Kansas and co-author on the study. "It's causing us to re-think our theories on how galaxies evolve." SOFIA, a joint project of NASA and the German Aerospace Center, DLR, studied an extremely distant galaxy, located more than 5.25 billion light years away called CQ4479. At its core is a special type of quasar that was recently discovered by Kirkpatrick called a "cold quasar." In this kind of quasar, the active black hole is still feasting on material from its host galaxy, but the quasar's intense energy has not ravaged all of the cold gas, so stars can keep forming and the galaxy lives on. This is the first time researchers have a detailed look at a cold quasar, directly measuring the black hole's growth, star birth rate, and how much cold gas remains to fuel the galaxy. "We were surprised to see another oddball galaxy that defies current theories," said Kevin Cooke, postdoctoral researcher at the University of Kansas in Lawrence, Kansas, and lead author of this study. "If this tandem growth continues both the black hole and the stars surrounding it would triple in size before the galaxy reaches the end of its life." As one of the brightest and most distant objects in the universe and, quasars, or "quasi-stellar radio sources," are notoriously difficult to observe, because they often outshine everything around them. They form when an especially active black hole consumes huge amounts of material from its surrounding galaxy, creating strong gravitational forces. As more and more material spins faster and faster toward the center of the black hole, the material heats up and glows brightly. A quasar produces so much energy that it often outshines everything around it, blinding attempts to observe its host galaxy. Current theories predict that this energy heats up or expels the cold gas needed to create stars, stopping star birth and driving a lethal blow to a galaxy's growth. But SOFIA reveals, that there is a relatively short period when galaxy's star birth can continue while the black hole's feast goes on powering the quasar's powerful forces. Rather than directly observing the newborn stars, SOFIA used its 9-foot telescope to detect the infrared light radiating from the dust heated by the process of star formation. Using data collected by SOFIA's High-resolution Airborne Wideband Camera-Plus, or HAWC+ instrument, scientists were able to estimate the amount of star formation over the past 100 million years. "SOFIA lets us see into this brief window of time where the two processes can co-exist," said Cooke. "It's the only telescope capable of studying star birth in this galaxy without being overwhelmed by the intensely luminous quasar." The short window of joint black hole and star growth represents an early phase in the death of a galaxy, wherein the galaxy has not yet succumbed to the devasting effects of the quasar. Continued research with SOFIA is needed to learn if many other galaxies go through a similar stage with joint black hole and star growth before ultimately reaching the end of life. Future observations with the James Webb Space Telescope, which is scheduled to launch in 2021, would uncover how quasars affect the overall shape of their host galaxies. About SOFIA SOFIA is a joint project of NASA and the German Aerospace Center. NASA's Ames Research Center in California's Silicon Valley manages the SOFIA program, science, and mission operations in cooperation with the Universities Space Research Association, headquartered in Columbia, Maryland, and the German SOFIA Institute at the University of Stuttgart. The aircraft is maintained and operated by NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center Building 703, in Palmdale, California.

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global Animal Partnership (G.A.P.), North Americas most comprehensive farm animal welfare standards and labeling program, announces the completion of the largest-ever study of broiler chicken health, welfare, and production. G.A.P. established the Better Chicken Project in 2016 bringing scientists, breeding companies, chicken producers, buyers, and animal welfare advocates together with a common purpose: to establish a research-based framework to help reinvent the modern-day broiler chicken. This research study was the first step in defining a new animal welfare protocol and breeds acceptable for use in its program moving forward. The study, which included more than 7,500 broiler chickens from 16 different genetic strains, and took two years to complete, was led by researchers Drs. Stephanie Torrey and Tina Widowski at the University of Guelph, in Ontario, Canada. G.A.P. secured funding for the project, and the researchers secured additional funding from the Canada First Research Excellence Fund. In-kind contributions were provided by Ontario Agri-Food Innovation Alliance and major poultry genetics companies. The study was designed and conducted independently at the University of Guelph. This study was the first multi-disciplinary research project of chicken welfare to include carefully chosen indicators such as behavior, physiology, anatomy, production, and meat quality together into one research project. No other broiler chicken welfare research project has been done on this scale, said Dr. Widowski. In 2016, G.A.P. announced that by 2024, it would replace 100 percent of chicken breeds that result in poor welfare outcomes with breeds meeting specified welfare outcomes within its 5-Step Animal Welfare Certification program. Currently used commercial breeds have a history of welfare issues that this study seeks to address. Throughout G.A.P.s history as an animal welfare certification program, we have continued to pioneer innovative improvements to how animals are raised; however, regardless of how well broiler chickens are reared, theres still an issue with the birds themselves. Our vision was to use the findings from this study to identify multi-disciplinary factors that could objectively support change within our existing standards program, said Anne Malleau, G.A.P. executive director. Based on the final results of the Guelph study, a multi-stakeholder technical working group of experts has been assembled to assist G.A.P. with drafting protocols for assessing breeds for use in their program in the future. A summary of the study results is available to the public by accessing G.A.P.s Better Chicken Project page here. This summary represents key parts of the research; however, additional analysis and further data will be released in the future. A key finding of the study is that even under controlled conditions with excellent management, fast-growing broiler chickens face significant animal welfare trade-offs such as less activity and poorer mobility, higher rates of muscle myopathies (e.g. woody breast, white striping), and potentially inadequate organ development. All results from the study will eventually be published in peer-reviewed journals by the researchers involved in the study. As hundreds of large food and hospitality companies have pledged to address broiler chicken welfare as part of their corporate social responsibility commitments, G.A.P. offers a path toward meeting those promises with its highly regarded animal welfare certification and labeling program. Consumers should beware of vague or undefined claims of chicken welfare: by looking for the G.A.P. certification seal, they will know that they are truly buying chicken raised to science-based welfare standards. Global Animal Partnership is one of the largest animal welfare standards and labeling organizations in North America. Established in 2008, G.A.P. impacts the welfare of over 416 million animals each year through third-party certification of more than 3,900 farms, supplying products to over 5,000 outlets. G.A.P. believes that meaningful label claims, validated by third-party audits on every farm, are key to influencing the industry, raising consumer expectations, and creating long-lasting change for farm animals.

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Applied Real Intelligence (A.R.I.), an emerging venture debt investment manager, has released Private Debt A Solution for Lagging U.S. Pension Investment Performance. The new white paper for institutional investors was co-authored by Zack Ellison, A.R.I.s Managing General Partner and Chief Investment Officer, and A.R.I. Advisory Board Member Guy Pinkman, a two-time Presidential Appointee to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) Advisory Committee and Trustee for the City of Lincoln Nebraska Police & Fire Pension. U.S. defined benefit pension plans are woefully underfunded and there are few viable near-term solutions other than improving investment performance. In response, pension managers have been increasing allocations to private debt, specifically direct corporate loans to middle market and lower middle market companies, said Zack Ellison. Direct loans possess many features that are attractive to pension investors, including: 1) High risk-adjusted returns; 2) Steady cash income; 3) Portfolio diversification; 4) Capital preservation; and 5) Inflation protection. Within direct lending, venture debt may have the highest risk-adjusted return of any strategy over the past 15 years. A.R.I. estimates that non-bank venture debt lenders returned over 20% annually from 2005 to 2019 with loss rates less than 0.50% annualized, continued Ellison. This latest A.R.I. white paper coincides with a two-part CAIA Info Series on Pensions, co-hosted with CAIA SoCal, where Mr. Ellison serves as a Board Member. Session 1, Solutions for Optimizing U.S. Pension Structures, is available for replay at this link.

EASTON, Pa., April 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Former cement-plant worker Vincenzo (Vinny) DeNisi, 33, whose left leg was suddenly snagged then severed when an unsecured metal floor grate collapsed into a razor-sharp rotating, 24-inch radial metal conveyor-screw blade, today sued the Nazareth, Pennsylvania processing facility's former and current owner-operator and several contractors for allegedly creating and then failing to fix the flagrant dangerous conditions that resulted in his "predictable and preventable" life-altering injuries, according to Mark K. Altemose, and Michael J. McKarski, his attorneys from Cohen, Feeley, Altemose and Rambo, P.C. The civil negligence action (DeNisi v. SmitHahn Company, Inc. et al. Northampton County Court of Common Pleas, Docket No. C-48-CV-2019-1158 Complaint PDF)seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages under Pennsylvania law and includes a request for a jury trial. Mr. DeNisi, whose left leg was completely surgically amputated above the knee at St. Luke's Hospital and required multiple surgeries following the 9 a.m., September 13, 2019 incident at the Lehigh Heidelberg Cement Plant #3, to date faces mounting medical expenses of more than $500,000, according to Attorney Altemose. "Vinny loved his job, and is a courageous young man who filed this lawsuit to make sure that what happened to him can never happen again, not only at Lehigh-Heidelberg, but at any similar workplace where safety should be the absolute highest priority," said Mr. Altemose. "As the investigation by the U.S. Department of Labor, Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA, Case No. 9463748) correctly concluded, the unsupported and unsecured grate - specifically intended as rigid walking surface for miners working above the 135-foot-long industrial screw that propels powdery cement from silos through the finishing plant - was a severe safety hazard that exposed workers to 'fatal entanglement injuries'. It was only a matter of time before an unsuspecting miner stepped where Vinny did and fell with that perilous section of grating into the bladed screw just inches below." Shortly after the accident, which MSHA determined to be the result of "negligence", MSHA ordered corrective actions that included installation of properly fitted and anchored floor grating, hand rails and safety-warning signage. Photos in that report depict missing supports for the grating at the time of the incident and the remediated work location. Mr. DeNisi, a lifetime Lehigh Valley resident who was a recent hire at the time of the incident with hopes of working at the plant until retirement, said he is doing everything possible to stay positive after the tragedy, but that he still has nightmares over what happened. "I'm blessed to have amazing family and friends and those heroic co-workers who not only saved my life, but also have stood by me every minute of every day. My leg was shattered but not my will. The lawsuit isn't just about me, it's about making sure that no miner ever has to experience the horrors I have experienced." Attorney Altemose has extensive experience representing catastrophically injured workers, including those whose severe injuries required amputation. In a landmark case, a Northampton County jury in 2008 awarded $4.4 million to his client, a church elder whose left leg was amputated below the knee when a stack of drywall fell onto him while performing volunteer work at the church.

OXNARD, Calif., Jan. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Following completion of rigorous evaluation by nationally recognized testing labs, a wide range of SimpliPhi Power's energy storage products and system configurations are approved for Certification under UL 9540. The AccESS, BOSS.6 & BOSS.12 systems can be used individually or in combination to achieve multiple, robust solutions across residential and commercial applications, both on & off grid, and AC or DC coupled. SimpliPhi Power also completed UL 9540A cell and module testing the industry's most stringent fire-safety testing protocols affirming the inherent safety advantages of using cobalt-free, non-toxic lithium ferro phosphate (LFP) battery chemistry in their award-winning energy storage systems. SimpliPhi Power's AccESS and BOSS product lines, both UL 9540 certified for a wide range of system configurations for homes and businesses. Energy storage is more than just backup power; it is critical to our economic recovery & sustainable energy future Tweet this "Distributed energy storage is more than just backup power; it is critical to our economic recovery and sustainable energy future, creating savings for customers on their electricity costs and reducing losses compounded by ongoing planned and unplanned power outages," said Catherine Von Burg, CEO and president of SimpliPhi Power. "Since our founding ten years ago, we have always prioritized the safety and simplicity of installing our best-in-class battery systems. Completing UL 9540A fire testing and receiving our UL 9540 certification provides further assurance to customers and installers, code officials and emergency responders that our range of cost-effective energy storage solutions meet the highest safety standards for resilient battery systems that can be installed in homes and businesses." The US market for energy storage had a breakout year in 2020 despite the global pandemic and economic slowdown, and is expected to grow from just under $1 billion in revenue last year to more than $7.2B in 2025, according to Wood Mackenzie. Sales at SimpliPhi Power grew more than 40% in 2020, as demand for safer lithium-ion chemistries continued to accelerate amidst a series of notable battery fires and global product recalls of cobalt-based lithium-ion batteries. With systems operational in more than 40 countries, SimpliPhi products offer a decade of demonstrated safety and performance due to their proprietary manufacturing processes and inherently safe materials. SimpliPhi's product line is based on the superior LFP lithium-ion chemistry, which is more cost-effective, longer lasting, and does not use cobalt, the primary hazard in other lithium-ion battery fires.As more and more battery storage systems are installed in homes and businesses, building and fire codes, which vary from one jurisdiction to another, are rapidly adapting to accommodate customer demand. UL 9540 certification and 9540A fire safety testing eases the burden on local code officials and simplifies the approval process for new installations. Now, this wide selection of SimpliPhi Power system configurations can be approved and installed in just a few weeks, instead of months of lead time needed for competitor products that lack UL certification."Instead of limiting customers to a one-size-fits-all solution, we sought UL certification for a wide range of system configurations, using multiple SimpliPhi equipment components, such as the AccESS Sol-Ark, BOSS.12 and BOSS.6," said Sequoya Cross, director of global sales & business development for SimpliPhi Power. "From 15.2 kilowatt-hours (kWh) up to 136kWh in one system, including single phase, split-phase, and three-phase setups, we have certified product offerings available to meet the resilient power needs of customers of all types including residential systems, multi-family apartments, campuses, and commercial and industrial buildings."SimpliPhi Power's network of Elite IQ installers and numerous distributor partners can deliver SimpliPhi's line of UL9540 certified products all over the world.About SimpliPhi Power With a mission to create universal access to safe, reliable, and affordable energy, SimpliPhi Power designs and manufactures efficient, non-toxic, and enduring energy storage and management systems that utilize environmentally benign lithium ferro phosphate (LFP) battery chemistry.

PONTPIERRE, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News: La Franaise de l'nergie (Euronext: LFDE - ISIN: FR0013030152), producer of energy with a negative carbon footprint, announces the acquisition of Greenhill SA, a subsidiary of the Brederode SA, holder of the Monceau-Fontaine, Marcinelle and North Charleroi Concession (No. 038), for a gross acquisition price of 203,000 and a net consideration of 95,000 taking into account the cash available at Greenhill SA. A concession with high potential The Concession of Monceau-Fontaine, Marcinelle and North of Charleroi covers 74 km. This concession contains large volumes of gas present in the former mining galleries, which were the subject of several positive production tests in 2018. Pressures of more than 2 bars as well as CH4 contents greater than 90% were measured during these tests on two sites. 6 mine shafts more than 1000 meters deep, connected to the old mining works, are already in place and will be quickly tested over a longer period to validate the development plan to recover the fatal gas from these wells. LFDE will capture this gas and avoid the release of a large volume of methane into the atmosphere and use this energy locally in the form of gas, electricity and heat. This development model, already successfully established in Anderlues and the Hauts-de-France, is a competitive ecologically and economically solution. Julien Moulin, President of La Franaise de l'Energie, said: The acquisition of Greenhill is a strategic step for our group to be a key player in the ecological transition of the Walloon mining basin. This transaction strengthens our positioning in Belgium, in particular near Charleroi, and should enable us to deploy new cogeneration units on this concession over the next 18 months and contribute to the efforts to reduce the carbon footprint that the Walloon Government is promoting. La Franaise de l'Energie continues to progress its growth plan with the objective to achieve an annualized turnover target of 35 million for an EBITDA margin of over 45% by the end of 2022.

SHREVEPORT, La., Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Since 1989, the Fanning family's Southern Classic Chicken has been serving up fresh fried chicken at value pricing to families in the South and is actively looking to reach new communities with the launch of its franchise opportunity. The brand will soon have 17 corporately owned locations and plans to expand across the South through franchising after 30 years of proven success in a very competitive market. Particularly buoyed by the system's performance in 2020, the brand is convinced that timing is ripe to start looking for entrepreneurs and restaurant professionals to join the family-driven brand and is targeting areas across Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, and Texas for its first wave of expansion. Southern Classic Chicken's success can be attributed to many factors, including its walk-up and drive-thru restaurant model. Given the current environment, the model is even more attractive because it can ensure that its customers receive a high-quality meal in a quick and safe manner. The brand keeps customers coming back with its affordable price point, with an average meal ranging from $5.00-$7.00. Nick Binnings, Director of Brand Development, and Tom O'Keefe, Managing Director, are spearheading the brand's expansion. Binnings and O'Keefe have combined experience of over 50 years in the restaurant operations and franchising space. Binnings was most recently the Vice President of Brand Development for Another Broken Egg Caf, where he helped grow the concept from 15 to 62 units before an exit to private equity. O'Keefe has more than 30 years of franchise experience as a franchise attorney, and has held executive roles with Popeye's/Church's Chicken, Ruth Chris Steak House, and Anytime Fitness. He was most recently President of Smoothie King before going on his own to help growing companies like Southern Classic Chicken. "We are no strangers to the franchising space and have worked with many national and international brands," said O'Keefe. "What we saw in Southern Classic Chicken was unlike anything else out there. We joined forces to help the brand grow because of its culture, quality and incredible value. Adding super compelling unit-level economics to those other components leaves us very confident that this franchise opportunity will be well received and pursued." The menu is simple: home-style fried chicken made with a proprietary marinade and batter which is complemented by fresh side offerings inspired by its southern roots. No corners are cut in sourcing the freshest products possible, and the brand has a commitment to serving the "absolute best" offerings at a better price point and value than competitors. "Fried chicken is a comfort food that many enjoy, especially here in the South," said Binnings. "With such an incredible value, we have seen sales continue to prosper despite the pandemic because it's an affordable option that can feed the whole family.In fact, in 2020, Southern Classic Chicken's system-wide sales have increased more than 20% on drive-thru sales alone." Southern Classic Chicken is looking for franchisees with restaurant management experience that align with its family-focused culture. Binnings and O'Keefe agree that the priority is growing at a comfortable pace where they can get to know franchisees personally and ensure they are the perfect fit for the brand. About Southern Classic Chicken Founded in 1989 and franchising since 2020, Southern Classic Chicken prides itself on serving fresh, delicious fried chicken at a price point that provides an incredible value. Founded by three family members, Southern Classic Chicken offers high-quality comfort food in a quick and effective manner through its walk-up and drive-thru restaurant model.

NEW YORK, Aug. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research (MJFF) today announced the launch of its first-ever Virtual 5K/10K community event. The event invites runners and walkers of all ages and abilities worldwideto lace up their sneakers in support of a cure for Parkinson's disease. Kicking off MJFF's "Celebrate Science Weekend" on Friday, October 2, the Foundation's 5K/10K will host virtual engagement opportunities and incentives throughout the weekend as participants log their miles before Sunday, October 4.

"We are energized by the creativity and dedication of every individual who is helping us meet this challenging year so that we can advance more breakthroughs for people with Parkinson's." The Virtual 5K/10K is the first of its kind for MJFF but draws inspiration from the Fox Trot 5K Series, which has united more than 10,000 community members and raised over $2 million for critical science since 2017. With the cancellation of this year's series of Fox Trots due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Foundation has set an ambitious fundraising goal of $500,000 for this new virtual event the highest goal for a single MJFF-hosted 5K event to date. In addition, this October, the Foundation aims to recruit 3,000 runners and walkers from across the globe. And like the Fox Trot 5K Series, 100 percent of the event proceeds go directly to MJFF's pursuit of accelerating better treatments and a Parkinson's cure. "These events create communities united for a purpose. Runners and walkers representing every age, experience level, and ability come together by virtue of a shared commitment to ending Parkinson's disease by helping to fund research. My family, friends, and I find these 5Ks to be fun, meaningful, and empowering," says Allan Cole, PhD, a Fox Trot 5K participant living with Parkinson's who has already committed to running the Virtual 5K/10K in October. Participants are encouraged to register early. Registration is $40 per adult and $20 per child under age 13. All registrants who sign up before September 25 will be mailed a participant packet including a Virtual 5K/10K t-shirt and runner bib. Registration is now open atfoxtrot.org. Those unable to complete the run or walk during the designated race period can still participate at their convenience. The Foundation also welcomes donations to the eventto help meet its $500,000 fundraising goal.The Virtual 5K/10K supports the mission of The Michael J. Fox Foundation to work urgently to speed development of better treatments and a much-needed cure for the estimated 6 million people worldwide living with Parkinson's disease.

DUBLIN, April 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The "The Asia-Pacific Electric Vehicle (EV) Battery Swapping Market, 2020" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The electric vehicle (EV) battery swapping market in the Asia-Pacific is moving from the nascent to the growth phase. The document presents competitive profiles on each of the companies in the report based on their strengths, opportunities, and a small discussion on their positioning. The publisher analyzes hundreds of companies in the industry and benchmarks them across 10 criteria on the report, where the leading companies in the industry are then positioned. Battery costs, range anxiety, and lengthy charging process have been cited as among the main barriers hindering the broader adoption of EVs. Battery swapping offers a quicker solution to address range anxiety, where each swap takes less than 10 minutes and requires much smaller space to install compared to charging stations. Offering Battery as a Service is another solution gaining traction in the region's EV industry, given its impact on reducing the high upfront price of EVs by separating battery ownership, and hence, cost. Instead of owning the batteries, customers can subscribe to battery swapping plans to meet their unique needs. Companies featured in this report provide battery swapping solutions and infrastructure for a variety of vehicle segments ranging from two- to four-wheelers. Key players in the market have unique solutions to differentiate their companies from competitors, ranging from retrofitting motorcycles into smart bikes with portable smart batteries to offering flexible subscription plans that allow customers to pay only for the energy they consume. Companies are also providing innovative solutions that utilize artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, GPS tracking, and facial recognition to improve battery swapping services and customer experience. In a field of more than 30 global industry participants, the publisher independently plotted the top 8 Asia-Pacific EV battery swapping solutions companies in this report analysis: NIO, Inc., Gogoro, Inc., SUN Mobility Pvt Ltd, Oyika Pte Ltd, EChargeUp Solutions Pvt Ltd, Lithion Power Pvt Ltd, VoltUp, and Esmito Solutions Pvt Ltd, that are truly innovating and best positioned to deliver high value to customers in the future.

Agenda: Sobi Capital Markets Day 2020

NEW YORK, April 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Unqork, the leader in enterprise no-code application development technology, today announced a partnership with Deloitte to launch a fully-managed smallbusiness lending service to digitize the end-to-end loan life cycle. This solution will enable small business lenders to streamline the distribution of loans to small businesses in need of relief as a result of Covid-19. The service conforms to the requirements of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act which was recently passed by Congress to provide fast and direct economic assistance for American workers, families and small businesses and to preserve jobs for American industries, also known as the Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program (SBA PPP). "The CARES act attempts to help small businesses weather the storm associated with Covid-19. However, the challenges of processing $349 billion of loan volume in a few weeks has exposed the inadequacy of the technology platforms currently servicing the small business loan market. It left most lenders with complex operational challenges resulting from legacy technology and manual processes and controls," said Rabih Ramadi, head of Financial Services at Unqork. "This lending service addresses these inefficiencies by quickly getting small businesses the economic relief they need." Unqork and Deloitte are partnering with Plaid to provide a fully digital turnkey solution with pre-configured business processes, operational resources, and compliance controls. The platform includes an easy-to-use customer (borrower) experience, real time validations, integrations with data providers, along with comprehensive underwriting and servicing capabilities for lenders. The platform can be deployed in a few days while being customized to a lender's desired experience. "Speeding up loan processing could mean the difference between a business and its employees surviving intact, or adding to the skyrocketing unemployment," said Lowell Putnam, Plaid head of partnerships. "The Unqork and Deloitte service incorporates several Plaid products to allow lenders to quickly process CARES Act loans while complying with guidelines. Ultimately, this can help speed the delivery of relief funds to more businesses." This launch is part of Unqork's ongoing work with cities, states and financial institutions to streamline the delivery of economic and emergency relief in response to Covid-19. In addition to small business lending, Unqork has been enabling major U.S. cities to quick deploy technology to better connect their residents to critical services, such as food delivery for vulnerable citizens, the distribution of medical equipment to healthcare workers, and the gathering and mapping of data to help understand the impact of Covid-19 in local communities.

Chevron Commits $300 million Toward Low-Carbon Technology Investments

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Westlake Chemical Corporation (NYSE: WLK) (the "Company" or "Westlake") today reported net income attributable to Westlake for the three months ended March 31, 2021 of $242 million, or $1.87 per diluted share, on net sales of $2,357 million. Net income in the first quarter of 2021 increased by $97 million from first quarter 2020 net income of $145 million, or $1.13 per share, on net sales of $1,932 million. Income from operations of $346 million for the first quarter of 2021 increased by $210 million from income from operations of $136 million for the first quarter of 2020. The increases in net income and income from operations were primarily driven by higher sales prices and integrated margins for most of our major products including polyethylene and PVC, as well as higher earnings resulting from strong demand in our downstream building products business. These increases in demand were driven by rebounding global economic activity in packaging consumption combined with the strength in the North American residential construction and the repair and remodeling markets. These increases were partially offset by lost sales and production volumes, increased maintenance expense and higher ethane and ethylene feedstock and natural gas fuel costs related to the severe winter storm. Compared to the prior-year period, net income was also impacted by higher income tax expense as the first quarter of 2020 included a tax benefit from the CARES Act of $62 million, or $0.48 per share. First quarter 2021 net income of $242 million, or $1.87 per share, increased by $129 million from fourth quarter 2020 net income of $113 million, or $0.87 per share. Income from operations of $346 million for the first quarter of 2021 increased by $168 million from income from operations of $178 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The increases in net income and income from operations versus the prior quarter were primarily due to continuing strength in demand for packaging products and construction activity which drove higher prices, integrated margins and volumes for most of our major products including polyethylene and PVC, in addition to strong earnings in our downstream building products business. These increases were partially offset by lower caustic soda prices as well as higher feedstock and fuel costs. "Westlake had a strong start to 2021 as we experienced solid financial performance as we benefitted from the continuing global economic recovery and robust product demand paired with higher prices and margins for many of our products. The severe winter storm caused widespread industry disruption, including Westlake. Through the efforts of our employees, we quickly responded to the disruptions caused by the storm and fully resumed operations by the end of the quarter. We have worked tirelessly to address strong customer demand during the quarter," said Albert Chao, President and Chief Executive Officer. "As we look further into the year, we see continuing strong global demand in our PVC, polyethylene and downstream building products business driven by solid markets for the downstream uses of our products including residential construction, packaging and healthcare. We will remain focused on our strategy of safely and efficiently operating our facilities, while making disciplined investments, launching new and sustainable products, furthering our chain integration, lowering our costs and leveraging our current products and footprint around the world, while being a good steward of the environment in the communities in which we operate." Net cash provided by operating activities was $265 million for the first quarter of 2021. As of March 31, 2021, cash and cash equivalents were $1,393 million and long-term debt was $3,547 million. Capital expenditures were $141 million for the first quarter of 2021. EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) of $553 million for first quarter 2021 increased by $216 million compared to first quarter 2020 EBITDA of $337 million. First quarter 2021 EBITDA increased by $167 million compared to fourth quarter 2020 EBITDA of $386 million. A reconciliation of EBITDA to net income, income from operations, and net cash provided by operating activities can be found in the financial schedules at the end of this press release. VINYLS SEGMENT First quarter 2021 income from operations for the Vinyls segment of $200 million increased by $127 million from first quarter 2020 income from operations of $73 million. This increase in income from operations versus the prior-year period was primarily due to higher sales prices and integrated margins for PVC resin and higher earnings in our downstream building products business. The increase in operating income was partially offset by lower sales volumes and production and increased maintenance expense resulting from the severe winter storm, higher feedstock and fuel costs, as well as lower sales prices for caustic soda. Vinyls income from operations for the first quarter of 2021 of $200 million increased by $34 million from fourth quarter 2020 income from operations of $166 million primarily due to strong sales prices for PVC resin, higher sales volumes for most of our major products and higher earnings in our downstream building products business, partially offset by higher feedstock and fuel costs as well as lower sales prices for caustic soda. OLEFINS SEGMENT First quarter 2021 income from operations for the Olefins segment of $180 million increased by $118 million from first quarter 2020 income from operations of $62 million. This increase in income from operations versus the prior-year period was primarily due to higher sales prices and integrated margins for all of our products, driven by continuing strong global demand, partially offset by lower sales volumes and lost production and increased maintenance expense resulting from the impact of the severe winter storm, as well as higher feedstock costs and fuel costs. Olefins income from operations of $180 million in the first quarter of 2021 increased by $158 million from fourth quarter 2020 income from operations of $22 million. This increase in income from operations versus the prior quarter was primarily due to higher sales prices and integrated margins, driven by continuing strong global demand, as well as increased sales volumes for our products resulting from the hurricane impacts in late 2020, partially offset by higher feedstock and fuel costs. The statements in this release and the related teleconference relating to matters that are not historical facts, including statements regarding continued improvement of our performance in 2021, demand for polyethylene, PVC and downstream business products, results of investments in initiatives and our focus on our strategy of safely and efficiently operating our facilities, while making disciplined investments, launching new and sustainable products, furthering our chain integration, lowering our costs and leveraging our current products and footprint around the world, and being a good steward of the environment in the communities in which we operate, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially, based on factors including, but not limited to: the COVID-19 pandemic and the response thereto; general economic and business conditions; the cyclical nature of the chemical industry; availability, cost and volatility of raw materials and utilities, including natural gas and natural gas liquids from shale production; the price of crude oil; uncertainties associated with the United States and worldwide economies, including those due to global economic and financial conditions; governmental regulatory actions, including environmental regulation and changes in trade policies; political unrest; industry production capacity and operating rates; the supply/demand balance for Westlake's products; competitive products and pricing pressures; access to capital markets; technological developments; the effect and results of litigation and settlements of litigation; operating interruptions; and other risk factors.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This release makes reference to certain "non-GAAP" financial measures, such as EBITDA, as defined in Regulation G of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For this purpose, a non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as a numerical measure of a registrant's historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that (1) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of income, balance sheet or statement of cash flows (or equivalent statements) of the registrant; or (2) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"), but believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA, provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying business trends and performance of the Company's ongoing operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of EBITDA to net income, income from operations and net cash provided by operating activities can be found in the financial schedules at the end of this press release.

NEW YORK, May 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --GENYOUth,a national nonprofitorganization dedicated to creating healthier school communities,released today the results of Youth & the Future of Food, a nationally representative survey of American teens' views on food and its relationship with the planet. GENYOUth, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to creating healthier school communities, released the results of Youth & the Future of Food, a national survey of American teens views on food and its relationship with the planet. The study revealed that students care strongly about food and the environment but they dont fully understand how these two global issues are connected. Farmers are seen as a trusted source of information by teens. Fuel Up to Play 60, the largest in-school wellness program created by National Football League (NFL) and National Dairy Council (NDC), helps to educate and engage students about food, from farm to table. The GENYOUth Insights survey revealed that while today's youth care strongly about both food and the environment, they don't understand how these two global issues are connected, where their food comes from, or even why it matters. At the same time, the study suggests that the future of food systems and sustainability may be strengthened by increased leadership and engagement from America's teens. A recently released World Health Organization/UNICEF/Lancet report noted that "sustainability is for and about the next generation we must find better ways to amplify children's voices and skills for the planet's healthy future." "Our GENYOUth Insights Survey reveals America's teens don't yet think about or understand the relationship between food and the health of our planet. Yet the good news is that they have a strong desire to connect the food they eat with the world they live in," said Alexis Glick, CEO of GENYOUth. "It's crucial that they have the knowledge to serve as smart stewards in support of a healthy planet and people. GENYOUth is committed to partnering with America's farmers and food manufacturers to help youth understand and appreciate the vital connection between farming, food production and a sustainable and healthy planet." GENYOUth surveyed over 1,700 teens ages 13 to 18 on a wide range of sustainable-related topics, including the role food plays in their lives, where the food they eat comes from, if and how they connect food to the planet, and who they depend on for clear and trusted information. The results provide an interesting snapshot of the food priorities and paradoxes of this generation, as well as opportunities to help ensure youth can lead, act and choose wisely in today's food environment.For Teens, Food Sustainability Is Not an Important Everyday IssueIn young peoples' daily lives, sustainability is not nearly as important as more immediate and tangible priorities. They are twice as likely (65 percent to 33 percent) to think about food's healthfulness versus its environmental impact. When deciding what to eat or drink, taste dominates, with 91 percent citing it as a key factor, followed by cost and health (both 76 percent), and then whether food is produced in an environmentally friendly manner (60 percent). The fact that sustainability in the context of food production is not top-of-mind for teens is further illustrated by the proportion of teens who say they think about where food comes from (40 percent), whether the food they eat impacts the environment negatively (33 percent), and the small number who read or talk with others about how food is grown, raised or produced (25 percent). Youth Don't Understand Sustainable Food but Are Hungry for InformationAmerican teens' don't understand the connection between food, nutrition and the environment. Just 21 percent say they are very knowledgeable about where food comes from while 40 percent say they know little to nothing about the topic. But they want to know more, with clear majorities interested in learning more about producing food in earth-friendly ways (66 percent), feeding the world's growing populations (62 percent), knowing where their food comes from (60 percent), and "food that's good for me and good for the planet" (56%). Allies in Education: Who Teens Want to Hear FromTo help them understand where their food comes from and the importance of making sustainable food choices, teens are craving guidance from trusted sources. It is those closest to the land -- farmers who are really seen as trusted allies, with 64 percent of young people saying they would like to visit a farm and talk with a farmer and 83 percent interested in hearing even more from those who work directly in agriculture. Conversely, while a clear majority (84 percent) want to hear about sustainable food issues from food companies and brands, restaurants and grocery stores, they don't rise up as go-to resources for teens. In fact, youth feel that companies that produce and package food actually make it more difficult for them to make sustainable and healthy eating choices. Hunger is Closely Linked with Sustainable FoodAmong sustainable nutrition issues of significance, hunger stands out, both as a condition facing too many teens and as a big concern for most. One in five (21 percent) worry about whether they will have enough to eat on a daily or weekly basis, while four out of five (80 percent) are very concerned about helping feed people who don't have enough to eat. In the COVID-19 era, with tens of millions of food insecure kids at risk due to school disruptions and climbing unemployment figures, hunger will inevitably become an even bigger source of concern.For today's teens, knowledge is the clearest path to engagement and leadership. As Jimena T., an 11th grader from Texas, said: "If youth have access to information about where their food comes from, they can make educated decisions about the food they eat. One of the most worthwhile things I've done recently was to visit and see how a dairy farm operates. It allowed me to start connecting the dots between what's grown on the land and what's sold in the store. And that's given me a new-found appreciation for food and our planet."To review "Youth & the Future of Food," including opportunities for taking action, visit https://www.genyouthnow.org/reports.About GENYOUthGENYOUth is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that creates healthier school communities. We convene a network of private and public partners, including Fortune 100 companies and foundations, to raise funds for youth wellness initiatives that give youth the inspiration, motivation and programs to be healthy high-achieving students. GENYOUth's flagship program, Fuel Up to Play 60, enrolls over 73,000 U.S. schools, reaching over 38 million students. Our school nutrition grants increase access to healthy school meals among food insecure students. NFL FLAG-In-School is GENYOUth's fastest growing program with over 20,000+ school communities reaching over 11 million students while AdVenture Capital brings out the entrepreneurial spirit and creativity of students with the support of corporate mentors to solve real world problems. For more information about GENYOUth, visit www.genyouthnow.org.MethodologyOnline survey conducted February 11 to 28, 2020 with a nationally representative sample of over 1,700 middle, junior, and senior high school students, ages 13-18, including 1,198 youth affiliated with GENYOUth programs and initiatives (e.g., Fuel Up to Play 60 and AdVenture Capital) and 507 youth in a control group. Results were statistically weighted to ensure a representative group by gender, age, race/ethnicity, and geography. An advisory committee of health, education, nutrition, and youth engagement experts and practitioners provided guidance on the research topic, hypothesis, and online survey content. Two waves of student focus groups (conducted by phone conference) were held to inform the survey content and questions. The survey was conducted in counsel with Edelman Intelligence and produced with funding from Midwest Dairy.SOURCE GENYOUth Related Links http://www.genyouthfoundation.org

Hand in Hand Secures Growth Investment from Bain Capital Double Impact

SDERTLJE, Sweden, July 31, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The period was strongly dominated by the coronavirus outbreak and its consequences in the form of lower demand and decreased production. Summary of the first six months of 2020 Net sales decreased by 24 percent to SEK 58,469 m. (77,271) Operating income decreased by 70 percent to SEK 2,813 m. (9,444) Cash flow amounted to SEK 1,867 m. (3,638) in Vehicles and Services In the second quarter of 2020, net sales fell by 38 percent to SEK 25,418 m. (41,179) and operating income decreased to SEK -192 m. (5,237) Comments by Henrik Henriksson, President and CEO "The period was strongly dominated by the coronavirus outbreak and its consequences in the form of lower demand and decreased production. Both sales and profitability were thus impacted negatively. Forceful actions taken by the company mitigated the negative impact. In the second quarter of 2020, net sales fell by 38 percent to SEK 25.4 billion and operating income was negative at SEK -192 million. In the first half of 2020, net sales fell to SEK 58.5 billion and earnings to SEK 2.8 billion, giving an operating margin of 4.8 percent. During the first half of 2020, vehicle deliveries fell by 41 percent with lower volume in essentially all regions. Scania's service revenue fell by 5 percent to SEK 13.5 billion during the first half of 2020. Financial Services reported lower operating income of SEK 476 million (737), due to increased bad debt provisions, reflecting the financial impact from the coronavirus on our customers. After a complete stop in Scania's global production during the spring when all production was closed down due to component shortages and disruptions in the supply and logistics chain, a cautious restart began at low levels. The order book that was built up due to the stoppage, caused by the pandemic, has still not been worked through. Therefore planning is now underway to compensate for this production loss through an increased production rate. Looking ahead, the demand situation remains uncertain. Order bookings for new trucks were impacted by economic developments in general which vary in different parts of the world. A recovery in Asia is noticeable and in certain parts of Europe, while it is going more slowly in Latin America. The global bus and coach market has been severely affected by the pandemic, particularly demand for coaches and tourist buses. However, in Engines, demand is strong and order bookings even exceed the previous year's levels. Scania has so far coped well with the challenges of the coronavirus outbreak. With quick and decisive actions, the brakes were hit on a large number of projects and activities, in order to reduce cost and preserve cash. Estimating the long-term effects of this crisis is difficult and it will take a long time before demand returns to pre-crisis levels. In light of this, and to ensure a continued profitable Scania that can contribute to driving the shift towards a sustainable transport system, intensive and comprehensive work is also underway to adapt Scania's cost structure longer term. As announced during the quarter, we now face the tough measure of reducing the organisation by around 5,000 employees globally."

STAFFORD, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Greenwich LifeSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: GLSI) (the Company), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of GP2, an immunotherapy to prevent breast cancer recurrences in patients who have previously undergone surgery, today announced the completion of the manufacturing of the GP2 active ingredient for its planned Phase III clinical trial. After having met all drug specifications and release criteria in compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP), the GP2 active ingredient has been released for formulation and filling into vials, which is the last step before storage and distribution of GP2 to clinical sites. Snehal Patel, CEO of Greenwich LifeSciences commented, We are pleased to have completed this major manufacturing milestone. Last week we completed our IPO, in which members of senior management and directors invested funds aggregating in approximately 15% of the IPO gross proceeds. Our success in scaling up GP2 to large scale cGMP manufacturing and our recent fundraising moves us closer to commencing the upcoming Phase III clinical trial. The Companys commercial manufacturing partner, Polypeptide Laboratories, located in San Diego, California and a specialist in the manufacture of clinical and commercial grade peptides, initiated this clinical lot in 2019, which is at a commercial scale that can produce 50,000 doses and treat up to 4,500 patients. In addition, analytical methods were validated and a stability program has been initiated per cGMP requirements. About Breast Cancer and HER2/neu Positivity One in eight U.S. women will develop invasive breast cancer over her lifetime, with approximately 266,000 new breast cancer patients and 3.1 million breast cancer survivors in 2018. HER2/neu (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) protein is a cell surface receptor protein that is expressed in a variety of common cancers, including in 75% of breast cancers at low (1+), intermediate (2+), and high (3+ or over-expressor) levels. About Greenwich LifeSciences, Inc. Greenwich LifeSciences is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of GP2, an immunotherapy to prevent breast cancer recurrences in patients who have previously undergone surgery. GP2 is a 9 amino acid transmembrane peptide of the HER2/neu protein. In a randomized, single-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center (16 sites led by MD Anderson Cancer Center) Phase IIb clinical trial, no recurrences were observed in the HER2/neu 3+ adjuvant setting after median 5 years of follow-up, if the patient received the 6 primary intradermal injections over the first 6 months (p = 0.0338). Of the 138 patients that have been treated with GP2 to date over 4 clinical trials, GP2 treatment was well tolerated and no serious adverse events were observed related to GP2 immunotherapy. Greenwich LifeSciences is planning to commence a Phase III clinical trial using a similar treatment regime as the Phase IIb clinical trial.

REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., April 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --For the last several weeks, Oracle has been actively engaged in the ongoing fight against COVID-19. Our primary goal has been to develop and deploy a series of cloud applications that will gather the data necessary to enable health professionals to answer one critical question: What drugs are effective in treating or preventing the COVID-19 virus? Clinical Trials System The first systems we implemented in pursuit of this goal were clinical trials. Oracle has long been one of the world's leading suppliers of clinical trial systems. Over the years, many drugs including the remarkable cancer drug Keytruda have been approved by regulators worldwide after Oracle Clinical Trial Systems collected the data that proved the drug was both safe and effective. As of today, the Oracle Cloud is running clinical trials to test the safety and effectiveness of dozens of different COVID-19 drugs and vaccines. These trials span many countries and hundreds of institutional sites. Our newest cloud system named Clinical One enables institutions to start-up a clinical trial in as little as two weeksmuch, much quicker than ever before. Therapeutic Learning System In addition to gathering data from COVID-19 clinical trials, Oracle has built and donated to the US government a COVID-19 Therapeutic Learning System that allows physicians and patients to record the effectiveness of promising COVID-19 drug therapies. These drugs, like Hydroxychloroquine, Remdesivir, and Kaletra, have been safely used to treat other diseases but are not yet definitively proven to be effective against COVID-19. Physicians are now routinely prescribing these drugs to treat COVID-19 patients. The Oracle Therapeutic Learning System lets the physician record the patient's daily progress. By collecting this real-world patient data throughout the United States now, and throughout the world soon thereafter, we will quickly discover which of the new drugs are most effective against COVID-19, their optimal dosages, and how early in the disease progression the drugs need to be administered. In this way, each patient will participate in the fight against this deadly virus. The Therapeutic Learning System was the result of a unique and important collaboration with the National Institute of Health, the Food and Drug Administration, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and the Department of Health and Human Services. Doctors and patients started enrolling in the Therapeutic Learning System yesterday. The system is currently available to every physician in the United States at covid19.oracle.com Trademarks Oracle and Java are registered trademarks of Oracle and/or its affiliates.

WILMINGTON, Del., March 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Following a new development in the TransPerfect Global, Inc. case, Citizens for a Pro-Business Delaware announced a new mailer would be sent to 115,000 households in the state condemning the Court's lack of transparency. Per a new motion filed by counsel for TransPerfect Global, Inc. and CEO Phil Shawe last week, the Chancery Court had extended the already "unprecedented confidentiality" offered to court-appointed custodian Robert Pincus and Partner Jennifer Voss from Skadden Arps for their billing practices to now include every single word from any objections made to those bills. According to the motion, "a compelling public interest is created when a Court-appointed, quasi-judicial, State actor with absolute and sweeping judicial immunity, uses his control of the company he was appointed to oversee to direct payment to his own firm for upwards of $10 million without ever presenting any invoices for the work allegedly performed to the Court or to the Company." SaidChris Coffey, Citizens for a Pro-Business Delaware's Campaign Manager, "Chancellor Andre Bouchard's repeated refusal to implement transparency measures regarding disclosure of Skadden's billing practices in this case is an affront to all standards of judicial integrity and ethics. The people of Delaware deserve to know why their courts are allowing custodians to take indiscriminately from the companies under their jurisdiction." The mail piecewill go out this week. Citizens for a Pro-Business Delaware is a group made up of more than 5,000 members including employees of the global translation services company TransPerfect, as well as concerned Delaware residents, business executives and others. They formed in April of 2016 to focus on raising awareness with Delaware residents, elected officials, and other stakeholders about the issue. While their primary goal of saving the company has been accomplished, they continue their efforts to fight for more transparency in the Delaware Chancery Court.

TORONTO, June 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --ARO Volcani Center, in collaborations with the Unit of Clinical-Research of Cutaneous Lymphoma, Department of Dermatology at Rabin Medical Centre, published recently a scientific paper in Oncotarget, one of the prestigious Scientific Journals in the field of Oncology Research, on a novel basic research and development in the treatment of Cutaneous T cell Lymphoma (CTCL). This treatment is based on active ingredients from the cannabis plant, which were tested on malignant cell-lines and blood samples from patients with CTCL. Current available medications for CTCL do not attain cure of the disease, and achieve at best remission, which is almost always temporary, with prolonged remission in minority of the cases. Therefore, there is a profound need of developing new treatments for this malignancy. Headedby Professor Hinanit Koltai in collaboration with the clinical-research unit of cutaneous lymphoma-Rabin Medical centre,the publication in Oncotarget and patents that were issues as PCT are based on a unique formulation of active compounds selectively extracted from the cannabis plant, which have highly cytotoxic activity (anti-cancerous activity) against malignant T-cells. Development and distribution are via an exclusive global licensing agreement between ARO Volcani with cannabis pharmaceutical company MedC Biopharma Corporation of Canada, which has invested in the development of CTCL treatments to secure the exclusive global license for the CTCL patents, a significant milestone in its efforts to further its position as a leader in Skin Oncology cannabis-based medication. ARO Volcani Center, is the Israel's leading state-owned cannabis research powerhouse with a repository of IP developed by a team of scientists, whose research has identified multiple effective compositions of cannabinoids and terpenes in the past years. The Division of Dermatology at Rabin Medical Centre and has obtained over the years a national and an international reputation, both in diagnosis and treatment, and also in basic-scientific research of CTCL. The fruits of its studies were reported in leading scientific journals over the years. Professor Hinanit Koltai at Volcani Center, said, "We are delighted that our collaborative efforts with the clinical-research unit of cutaneous lymphoma-Rabin Medical centre, and with MedC will provide them with the IP and scientific publication that will help pave the way to clinical research for CTCL." Prof Emmilia Hodak, Head Division of Dermatology, Rabin Medical Center: "Due to lack of sufficient treatment options for patients with cutaneous T cell lymphoma, the results of our research encourage us and give hope that the new treatment will be effective also in a clinical level." Avi Drori, Chairman of MedC Corp (Canada), said, "We are pleased that our investments in the development of cannabis-based medication for CTCL has matured into breakthrough discoveries and resulting patents. We look forward to commencing clinical trials in 2020, so we can finally bring hope to patients seeking a cure for this terrible disease."

WISMAR, Germany, July 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Climate-neutral energy generating it, storing it efficiently and making it available again. One of the central issues in the energy transition in order to achieve the global climate targets. Hydrogen has long been regarded as the ideal solution here, but has yet to make the final breakthrough, even though the principle of splitting water (electrolysis) to generate energy is nothing new. Various companies around the world are working to increase the cost-effectiveness, possible applications and efficiency of the technology to such an extent that it can be used as a clean alternative source of energy in the everyday lives of individuals and companies. Especially in the industrial sector, there is a high energy demand, which must be covered in future in a climate-neutral and cost-effective way. - Cross reference: Picture is available at AP Images (http://www.apimages.com) - This is exactly where the German company HOELLER Electrolyzer and its Prometheusseriescome in: A range of extremely compact electrolysis stacks based on 25 years of expertise in PEM (polymer electrolyte membrane) technology and eight patents pending. The first Prometheus will go into test operation in the third quarter of 2020. Prometheus makes green hydrogen available on almost every company site No matter whether you are a wind turbine operator, hydrogen filling station, or industrial enterprise/large-scale operation with fleets of trucks and forklifts or freight trains. In future, they all will need cost-effective and reliable energy solutions. This is precisely what Prometheus electrolysis stacks offer. They are the easy-to-integrate, cost-effective and powerful centerpiece of climate-friendly hydrogen and thus energy production for every plant manufacturer. The goal of engineer and company founder Stefan Hller: "We want to enable every company to produce green hydrogen independently, economically and decentrally on their company premises. Thanks to Prometheus, the price per kilogram of hydrogen will be below 4 euros." For this purpose, HOELLER Electrolyzer offers its Prometheus stacks in three compact sizes and power ratings. The smallest stack is the size of a water carbonator and has a power rating of 76 kW the largest 1.4 megawatts Prometheus S achieves a power rating of 76 kW, produces 34 kg of hydrogen per day, and with a footprint of 25 x 21 cm. It is about the size of a water carbonator. At 1,500 full load hours per year, it can produce sufficient hydrogen to power seven cars or two forklift trucks. A car can be filled up within three minutes. Prometheus M has a power rating of 325 kW, produces 147 kg per day, and with a footprint of 42 x 29 cm and is therefore about the size of a crate of mineral water. At 1,500 full load hours per year, it can produce sufficient hydrogen to power 32 cars, seven forklift trucks or one passenger bus. Prometheus L has a power rating of 1.4 megawatts, produces 635 kg of hydrogen per day, with a footprint of 60 x 48 cm and is therefore about the size of four crates of mineral water. At 1,500 full load hours per year, the most powerful PEM stack from HOELLER can produce sufficient hydrogen to refuel 140 cars, 30 forklifts, five buses, two trucks or half a train. (Prometheus Pictures) Prometheus stacks take up 25 percent less space In addition to performance and economy, the low space requirement and reduced overall weight are decisive competitive advantages. The electrolysis stacks from HOELLER save about 25 per cent in space and weight, which also makes it possible, for example, to integrate them into the rotor head of a wind turbine. HOELLER PEM electrolysis stacks: The technology, innovations and patents behind them But what exactly makes Prometheus stacks more economical and efficient than other electrolysis stacks? In brief: HOELLER has succeeded in considerably reducing the cost-intensive use of the precious metals platinum and iridium. This is made possible thanks to an in-house innovation. By improving the surface structures, the reaction area is increased this in turn leads to an increase in the performance of HOELLER stacks. In addition, the electrolysis cells have a fundamentally innovative design to further increase efficiency. Since fewer precious metals are used, production is also significantly cheaper and possible in large quantities. Another factor is the achievement of the highest possible output pressure of 50 bar and more to reduce the energy required to compress the hydrogen for storage. HOELLER is already ahead of some of its competitors in these points but continues to optimize its PEM electrolysis stacks in order to take a leading position in this technology going forward. About HOELLER With its innovative PEM technology, HOELLER Electrolyzer GmbH is developing the future source of green hydrogen. The innovative PEM electrolysis stack Prometheus is the result of more than 25 years of expertise and pioneering work by engineer, managing director and head of development Stefan Hller. In these stacks, water is split up into hydrogen and oxygen by adding electricity. This makes them the core component of future electrolysis or power-to-x systems. With Prometheus, HOELLER is above all aiming to achieve convincing value for money, minimized hydrogen production costs, impressive maximum performance, outstanding service life and high hydrogen output pressure.
