Mecho Unveils EPDs for all Manual Shade Systems

Published

on

All Mecho manual shade systems and shade cloths now have Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs).

LONG ISLAND CITY, N.Y., Feb. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — With the unveiling of EPDs across our entire suite of manual shade systems, paired with our wide array of Mecho shade cloths, Mecho is excited to announce an industry-first for EPDs for complete shade assemblies. This achievement furthers Mecho’s commitment to advancing its leadership position in sustainability and represents a significant leap forward in our mission to equip clients with the most comprehensive and transparent information, enabling them to make environmentally responsible choices with confidence. 

EPDs enable architects, building owners, and others to understand the environmental impact of an entire manual shade assembly, an industry first. The information is largely centered on embodied carbon. Embodied carbon data is in high demand from both specifiers and end customers and helps them to objectively understand the climate impact of our product. 

Why Did Mecho Invest in EPDs, and Why Are They Important? 

EPDs provide third-party verified environmental data, enhancing transparency and building trust among architects and designers regarding sustainability claims. EPDs offer a deeper understanding of a product’s climate impact, including carbon emissions, which supports informed decision-making for designers. We have also received consistent feedback from our sales team and customers that architects and designers prefer products with EPDs. While widely adopted in other building product categories, EPDs remain underutilized in the window covering industry.

The Process Behind Our EPDs 

Since there is no existing product category rule for the window coverings industry, Mecho collaborated with WAP consulting to adopt PCR 2019:14 for construction products for custom window shade products. From data collection to modeling to publishing, this process took one full year to complete. 

An Eye Towards the Future 

The incorporation of Mecho/7, Mecho/5x, Mecho/5, and UrbanShade into our EPD initiative is a big step forward in our sustainability journey. We extend our gratitude to our customers, partners, and team for their support in reaching this significant milestone. As we continue to innovate and lead in innovative shading solutions, Mecho remains committed to supporting our clients’ green building goals, contributing to a more sustainable, transparent future.

CHENGDU, China, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Eoptolink Technology Inc., Ltd. (SZSE: 300502), a leading innovator and provider of advanced optical transceiver solutions, announces the release of its OSFP 1.6T DR8/DR8-2 and 2xFR4 transceivers enabling the next generation high bandwidth networks for AI/ML clusters and cloud datacenters.

Eoptolink 1.6T OSFP transceivers have 8 electrical host interfacing lanes and 8 optical lanes operating at 212.5Gb/s (106GB with PAM4). Equipped with the industry’s latest DSP, these modules support transmission distances of up to 2km without the need to regenerate the FEC. The 1.6T DR8 and DR8-2 modules comes with either one MPO-16 adapter for point-to-point (P2P) connections or two MPO-12 adapters for 2x800G breakout applications. The 1.6T 2xFR4 modules are designed with a dual duplex LC connector running with 2 pairs of fibers only, which could help users to save fiber resources compared to DR8 and DR8-2 versions.

The 1.6T DR8/DR8-2 and 2FR4 Portfolio consists of: – 

EOLO-13T-5H-XMX    OSFP 1.6T DR8, 1×1.6TbE, 500m, MPO-16
EOLO-13T-5H-XDX    OSFP 1.6T DR8, 2x800GbE, 500m, Dual MPO-12
EOLO-13T-02-XMX    OSFP 1.6T DR8-2, 1×1.6TbE, 2km, MPO-16
EOLO-13T-02-XDX     OSFP 1.6T DR8-2, 2x800GbE, 2km, Dual MPO-12
EOLO-16T-02-XXX     OSFP 1.6T 2FR4, 2x800GbE, 2km, Dual Duplex LC

Eoptolink OSFP 1.6T transceivers feature both EML and SiPh-based solutions, and testing has demonstrated excellent performance. “We are very proud of our optical and RF design teams, says Sean Davies, VP Sales, Eoptolink Technology Inc., Ltd. “Our 1.6T OSFP modules do not need an additional FEC on the optical side and this results in lower latency and power consumption of the modules simplifying the complete system and helping our AI and cloud customers in their work.”

Tulufan, Xinjiang: For the first time, a new energy plant and station has achieved “all-green electricity” operation

Published

on

By

TULUFAN, China, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On September 19, employees of State Grid Tulufan Electric Power Supply Company came to State Power Investment Zhongli Tenghui Qiquanhu Photovoltaic Power Station to provide comprehensive technical support and guidance for new energy enterprises.

Seven wind power and photovoltaic power generation enterprises, including Xinjiang Jize Power Generation Company in Tulufan, have obtained 6.035 million KWH of grid electricity by purchasing 6,035 “green certificates” to achieve “green electricity – green electricity” and achieve green energy use in the whole link of new energy power generation.

The green power certificate, referred to as “green certificate”, is the only certificate that identifies the production and consumption of renewable energy power. Promoting the all-green operation of new energy power generation is an important measure to promote the green consumption of renewable energy.

“Before, we were just ‘producers’ of green electricity. Now the buyers of green certificates have become green electricity consumers, and the production process is fully green.” Qiquan Lake photovoltaic power station inspection officer Forzati Dilishati said.

Since the launch of the green electricity and green certificate market, State Grid Tulufan Electric Power Supply Company has actively promoted green electricity trading, promoted the supply of green electricity and green certificates in multiple scenarios, promoted the rapid promotion and popularization of related services in Tulufan, and helped build a new power system.

In the first eight months of this year, the cumulative volume of green electricity transactions in Xinjiang reached 1.174 billion KWH, 93.83 times that of the whole year of 2022.
