Toronto, March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Sarens, global leader and reference in crane rental services, heavy lifting and engineered transport, announced today its business priorities for the year ahead. Civil engineering, Onshore wind, Oil & Gas, mining and construction will be key industry areas for expansion. To fuel this growth, Sarens is investing 2.5m CAD in new equipment to reinforce its leadership position in Canada with offices in Edmonton, Fort McMurray, Grande Prairie, Vancouver and Toronto.  

With more than 10 years operating in the country, Sarens has undertaken several important projects. Most recently, the metro construction in Toronto, which is the largest project currently in Canada as well as helping to erect the largest wind turbine in Canada.

The Importance of Onshore

One of the main focuses of the Canadian business growth strategy has been set towards onshore wind farms. Canada houses exceptional wind resources and renewable energy, an essential source of electricity generation needed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Canada has been increasing its installed wind power capacity over the years. According to the Canadian Wind Energy Association (CanWEA), Canada ended 2019 with 13,413 MW of capacity and completed five new projects for 537 MW of new installed capacity. This increase will supply power to approximately 3.4 million homes.

Canada has the ninth largest wind generation fleet in the world and is expected to continue growing. Ontario, Quebec and Alberta have the largest installed capacity, as well as the most populated cities in the country. According to the plan presented by CanWEA for 2025, they plan to reach a capacity of 55 GW, or 29% of the country’s energy needs.

«This is a great investment opportunity in the country and therefore represents a massive opportunity for Sarens. Hence, we have acted accordingly, investing in new equipment to respond to the growing industry demands toward clean energies. There are many economic, industrial development and environmental benefits related to the adoption of wind energy and we are here to respond to this important trend.» said Lee Rowe, country manager in Canada.

Sarens to expand USA business operations with increased presence in southern states and projects on the northeastern coast

MADISON, Wis., March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Sarens, a global leader and reference in crane rental services, heavy lifting and engineered transport, has announced today its business priorities for its North American operations for the year ahead.

MADISON, Wis., March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Sarens, a global leader and reference in crane rental services, heavy lifting and engineered transport, has announced today its business priorities for its North American operations for the year ahead. Petrochemical, Offshore, Nuclear, Wind or Civil Works (construction), will be key industry areas where the company will focus its business expansion efforts, through its four regional offices located in Texas, Louisiana, South Carolina and Wisconsin.

After more than 12 years operating in the USA, Sarens has undertaken several important projects nationwide, most recently the demolition of the ‘Goliath Crane’ for the US navy in Newport News, Virginia.

Offshore

One of the main focuses of their American growth strategy focuses on offshore wind farms in the northeast, where Sarens boasts a deep expertise. In fact, Sarens installed the first windfarm in the world developed especially for offshore. The turbines, which in 2008 were already producing a power of 5MW each, surpass today’s mainstream onshore wind turbines.

According to World Forum Offshore Wind, the technical potential for floating wind power is around 7.000 GW for Europe, the US, and Japan combined. Developing this sector in the country represents a strategic move for Sarens. In oil and gas, nuclear and civil constructions, Sarens has been handling 300% and even heavier loads for decades.

Nuclear Power

Another significant shift for Sarens’ nuclear business goals was opening an office in Wisconsin, after assisting in constructing United Kingdom’s Hinkley Point C, which is the first nuclear power plant in UK in 30 years; plus maintenance and optimization of more than a hundred others.

Sarens played a key role in the construction of this plant, utilizing its giant SGC-250 crane, which is the world’s largest. The crane, also known as ‘Big Carl’, has a load capacity of more than 5,000T for lifting steam generators, reactor vessels, the dome and the turbines, something only possible with these cranes.

CED Issues Plan to Ensure Reliable, High-Speed Internet Access for All Americans

WASHINGTON, March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — As America’s business and public policy leaders work towards a post-pandemic economic recovery, they must address the affordability and access barriers to reliable, high-speed internet services that leave too many Americans and their families behind, says a new <a target="_blank"…

WASHINGTON, March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — As America’s business and public policy leaders work towards a post-pandemic economic recovery, they must address the affordability and access barriers to reliable, high-speed internet services that leave too many Americans and their families behind, says a new Solutions Brief report from the Committee for Economic Development of The Conference Board (CED). COVID-19 has driven even more of everyday commerce, work, health care, and education online, underscoring the critical role that internet access plays in American life and in the nation’s ability to prosper and compete globally.  

CED_Torch__Logo

As Broadband Access: Connecting America explains, adequate access to high-speed internet connectivity had become essential for families to pursue economic, educational, and quality of life improvements even before the pandemic. Past improvements in internet quality and access have greatly expanded economic opportunities for families while strengthening the pool of talented labor available to employers.

But as the report points out, more progress remains to be made. In fact, millions of Americans – some current estimates run to over 40 million – remain underserved when it comes to affordable access to high-speed internet, with the problem stretching across both urban and rural areas. While a greater share of rural households lack high-speed internet, roughly three times as many non-users reside in urban areas as rural ones.

«Information technology innovation and competition have been essential to delivering a higher quality of life and modern commerce,» said Lori Esposito Murray, President of CED. «Policymakers must leverage the dynamism and innovation of the private market, increase competition, and invest wisely in order to close the enduring gaps to access and reliability.»

The new CED report offers six specific policy proposals that policymakers and business leaders should implement. Recommendations include:

  • Improve market competition for high-speed internet provision. Robust competition is the surest way to both cost savings and innovation, but the high fixed costs and sole ownership of costly-to-duplicate network infrastructure often increases high-speed market concentration in many areas. Policymakers must take steps to reduce burdens and expand eligibility for potential participants and providers that could help expand broadband access. Efforts to increase competition should also include preempting laws in the 20+ states that ban or restrict municipalities from offering high-speed internet services.
  • Update the Federal Communications Commission’s definition for high-speed internet service to a more ambitious and forward-looking standard, reflecting the needs of households engaging in remote work, training, and education opportunities. The FCC’s current standard of 25Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload, unchanged since 2015, should be modernized to upload and download speeds of at least 100 Mbps («100/100»). An improved standard will better reflect the state of US connectivity and avoid directing federal investment to networks that are either substandard or will soon be outdated.
  • Leverage public assets to advance private market provision. In many areas, publicly-subsidized or publicly-owned high-speed internet connections have reached schools and other «anchor institutions» but access or provider competition is limited in the surrounding communities. Private providers should be permitted to expand networks from those existing community nodes, provided it will not degrade services at those institutions. In addition, high-speed internet providers should be allowed to coordinate their network expansions or upgrades with new and ongoing publicly-funded infrastructure projects, allowing them to take advantage of planned construction to advance connectivity. Finally, policymakers should evaluate including empty conduits or funding open-access networks which could ease subsequent expansion of private high-speed internet service.
  • Improve affordability by reforming existing federal support programs. The FCC’s Lifeline program is ill-suited to modern needs. Lifeline, which was originally created with telephone service in mind, typically provides less than $10 per month to high-need households, suffers from low participation, and typically subsidizes internet access indirectly. Lifeline service eligibility should be expanded to fixed internet providers, increasing competition and quality. And with high-speed internet access so central to job-searching, lawmakers should also expand eligibility for support to some recently unemployed workers on a time-limited basis.
  • Federally fund a one-time investment to build out upgradable high-speed internet networks to jump-start coverage for areas currently without broadband access. 
  • Bolster internet market transparency for policymakers and consumers alike. Congress should fund up-to-date detailed Census Bureau surveys of individuals and businesses on why they use the internet, which devices they use, and what their options and costs are for service. In addition, the FCC should more aggressively promote its «Broadband Facts» consumer label standard to help customers demand better service and spur competition among providers on clearer grounds.

«Widespread, high-speed internet adoption feeds the economic competitiveness and strength of the whole nation», added Lori Esposito Murray. «Studies have shown that wider access to broadband is associated with faster growth both nationally and regionally. Importantly, that also means that if the US fails to stay competitive in terms of broadband access, it runs the risk of becoming less attractive for international investment.»

NRG also offers a logistics service to manage getting customer units to its Vermont headquarters for a flat fee within the contiguous 48 states.

Ian Locker, Managing Director of ZX Lidars, added, «The approach to Lidar support is no different to what you expect of your car or bike; low-cost, local, planned maintenance to ensure a decade of reliability and system robustness. We are delighted to extend our global support to the North American wind industry through our Trusted Service Provider and now Service Center Operator, NRG Systems.
