Eureka College Onboards Fleet of Epson WorkForce Enterprise and WorkForce Pro Business MFPs as Part of its Sustainability Initiative

LOS ALAMITOS, Calif., Aug. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Epson today announced Eureka College has chosen Epson business printing solutions to replace its fleet of laser printers deployed across campus. Following its extensive search for a print fleet with specific environmental benefits, Eureka College determined Epson’s printers met and exceeded its criteria.

Eureka College Chooses Epson Business Print Solutions To Support Sustainability Initiatives

Eureka College, a leading Illinois liberal arts institution, is driven by its mission to be a regional model for institutional sustainability, and its core values revolve around increasing equity and sustainability on campus. Epson was chosen for its proven environmental value proposition and impact.

“As part of the curriculum, students in our Environmental Science and Business programs were tasked with evaluating the environmental benefits of the prospective printer solutions. The goal was to determine whether the claims were just marketing promises or if the products truly aligned with our sustainability goals,” said Dr. Ann Fulop, provost and VP of Academic Affairs at Eureka College. “The students analyzed brand and product messaging, qualified environmental claims – including electricity savings estimates – and compiled accounting projections based on potential environmental impacts and savings considering the school’s printing habits and requirements.”

Eureka College has deployed a fleet of WorkForce® Enterprise AM-C5000 Color MFPs and WorkForce Pro WF-C579R Workgroup Color MFPs with Replaceable Ink Pack Systems. The AM-C5000 has the lowest power consumption in its class, up to 55% lower than color laser printers.1 The WF-C579R uses a Replaceable Ink Pack System with extra high-capacity packs that can deliver enough ink to print up to 50,000 ISO pages black/20,000 ISO pages color before changing the packs.2

“Epson stood out because of the environmental benefits associated with its PrecisionCore® Heat-Free technology and design simplicity, meaning limited maintenance parts, and low waste and energy usage,” said Dr. Fulop. “I was surprised to see that I could get all the sustainability benefits without an increase to my budget.”

“We are proud to exceed Dr. Fulop and the Eureka College team’s expectations. The PrecisionCore technology not only aligns with the college’s sustainability goals and helps reduce plastic toner waste but also provides user-friendly technology, engineered for reliability to the students, faculty and administration at a very low operational cost,” said Kirk Taylor, VP of Sales, City Blue Technologies, an Epson BusinessFirstSM partner.

According to an article by Keypoint Intelligence, an increasing number of businesses are evaluating brands’ sustainability initiatives – how the brand, its solutions and services impact the planet – as part of their purchasing process. Businesses today are searching for printing solutions that ensure reduced machine downtime, less waste and low energy consumption for savings on energy bills.

“More and more organizations are looking to reduce the amount of waste they generate. They realize that laser printers consume many bulky maintenance parts that could end up in landfills,” said Elliot Williams, director of product marketing, Business Imaging, Epson America, Inc.  “Epson is committed to helping organizations like Eureka College reduce their environmental footprint and double down on the future of printing, supporting their organizational and sustainability initiatives.”

Epson printing solutions are engineered with PrecisionCore Heat-Free technology, a simple, smart and clean solution that delivers outstanding quality with low waste, to help businesses meet their sustainability goals without compromising reliability, cost or productivity.

BAKU, Azerbaijan, Nov. 13, 2024 /CNW/ — Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company PJSC (Masdar) and Korporata Elektroenergjitike Shqiptare (KESH) – Albania Power Corporation – have signed a joint venture term sheet agreement to explore the development of gigawatt-scale renewable projects in Albania.

The signing ceremony took place in Baku, Azerbaijan on the sidelines of COP29, witnessed by the Prime Minister of Albania, HE Edi Rama, His Excellency Dr. Sultan Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, COP28 President and Chairman of Masdar, and Her Excellency Belinda Balluku, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Infrastructure and Energy for Albania. The agreement was signed by Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, Chief Executive Officer of Masdar, and Erald Elezi, Chief Executive Officer of KESH.

The joint venture term sheet agreement aims to develop, construct, and operate renewable energy projects utilizing a range of renewable technologies, including solar PV, wind, and hybrid solutions, with potential integration of battery storage. The energy produced is expected to be supplied to the Albanian market and exported to neighboring countries.

Dr. Sultan Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, COP28 President and Chairman of Masdar, said: “This agreement is a testament to the UAE’s unwavering commitment to pioneering clean energy solutions on a global scale. By leveraging the UAE’s world-class expertise in renewable energy and Albania’s abundant natural resources, our purpose-built, future-ready infrastructure will deliver more energy with fewer emissions to more people than ever before. Agreements like these will help realize the ambitious goals of the historic UAE Consensus, aimed at tripling renewable energy capacity by 2030, and driving low-carbon socio economic progress.”

Her Excellency Belinda Balluku, Deputy Prime Minister & Minister of infrastructure and Energy, commented: “The partnership between KESH and Masdar is a significant moment not only for Albania’s journey towards a sustainable and secure energy sector, but also embodies the spirit of the strategic partnership between Albania and the United Arab Emirates and underscores the importance of international cooperation in achieving a green, sustainable future. By combining Albania’s rich renewable energy potential with Masdar’s global expertise, we are not only advancing our domestic energy goals but also positioning Albania as a key player in the European energy market, while enhancing our energy security, creating new economic opportunities, and contributing to our efforts to meet global climate goals.”

A landmark in the development of renewable energy capacity in Albania, the potential joint venture will benefit from Masdar’s relationships with technology providers and financial institutions, as well as its operational expertise, while capitalizing on KESH’s local market knowledge and existing infrastructure. Through this collaboration, Masdar and KESH are advancing Albania’s decarbonization initiatives and contributing to the broader European energy market.

Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, Chief Executive Officer of Masdar, added: “The joint venture term sheet with KESH will mark a significant milestone in Masdar’s expansion into the Balkans and Southeast Europe. By combining our expertise in large-scale renewable projects with KESH’s deep understanding of the Albanian energy market, we are poised to make a substantial contribution to Albania’s clean energy transition. As Masdar targets 100GW by 2030, this joint venture with our partner KESH exemplifies the scale and ambition needed to advance the global energy transition and we look forward to further collaborations in Albania and the Eastern Balkans”

Erald Elezi, Chief Executive Officer of KESH, said: “This joint venture with Masdar is a pivotal advancement in Albania’s renewable energy journey, underscoring KESH’s commitment to sustainable development and energy diversification. Although Albania already benefits from a predominantly green energy mix, this partnership will enhance our energy resilience, improve stability, and open avenues for clean energy exports to the region. By working with a global leader like Masdar, we are poised to bring innovative renewable technologies to Albania, supporting our role as a clean energy leader in the Balkans and strengthening the country’s position within the broader European energy landscape.”
