Prominent Male Allies Run Full Page Ad in the Washington Post Calling on Congress to Support the Marshall Plan for Moms

NEW YORK, Feb. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — 50 prominent male allies, many of whom are fathers, today signed a letter in the Washington Post calling on Congress to support the «Marshall Plan for Moms,» to pay mothers for their unpaid, unseen labor and to pass policies addressing parental leave, affordable childcare, and pay equity.  They join over 50 women who <a target="_blank"…

NEW YORK, Feb. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — 50 prominent male allies, many of whom are fathers, today signed a letter in the Washington Post calling on Congress to support the «Marshall Plan for Moms,» to pay mothers for their unpaid, unseen labor and to pass policies addressing parental leave, affordable childcare, and pay equity.  They join over 50 women who penned their support for the «Marshall Plan for Moms» in the New York Times, and the growing movement of more than 15,000 people who call on our leaders to put moms first during this terrible pandemic. Craig Newmark, the founder of craigslist and Craig Newmark Philanthropies and a Girls Who Code Board member, is supporting the Marshall Plan for Moms campaign as a major funder, advocate, and ally.  

«We’re in a childcare crisis, women are the biggest part of the economic crisis, and the pandemic has reversed decades of progress towards women’s equality,» said Reshma Saujani, founder and CEO of Girls Who Code. «This is a national crisis that requires bold solutions — we can’t afford anything less. Today’s action shows that women aren’t standing alone: this is a broad coalition and a growing movement to finally value women’s work.»

According to a report from the National Women’s Law Center, more than 2 million women have left the U.S. workforce since the COVID-19 pandemic began in 2020. A September 2020 report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics indicated that women were leaving the workforce at four times the rate of men.

«Mothers are facing the brunt of this pandemic, and it is on all of us to step up and ensure that we are providing them with the relief and compensation they deserve,» said Craig Newmark, founder of craigslist and Craig Newmark Philanthropies. «That is why I’m making an investment in the Marshall Plan for Moms so that we can continue to raise awareness and call on our elected leaders to take action now.»

Earlier this month, Congresswoman Grace Meng (D-NY) introduced the Marshall Plan for Moms (H.Res.121), a bold and sweeping piece of legislation to revitalize and restore women in the workforce, and the first of its kind to call for a transformative investment to help mothers who have been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

«When more than 30 years of progress for women in the workforce can be erased in 9 months, the underlying system is broken,» says the letter– which ran as a full page ad in the Washington Post today. «It’s time to create a new structure that works for women, that respects and values their labor. Men have a role to play.»

Tim Allen, Care.com; Brendon Ayanbadejo, NFL Champion & West Coast Fitness; Justin Baldoni, Filmmaker & Entrepreneur; Ramin Bastani, Healthvana; Vijay Chattha, VSC; Don Cheadle; Tom Colicchio; Victor Cruz; Seth Curry; Steph Curry; Mike de la Rocha, Revolve Impact; Winston Duke; Arne Duncan, Emerson Collective; Andy Dunn, Monica + Andy; Colin Farrell; Stew Friedman, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania; Scott Galloway, NYU Professor; Jason Winston George; Jeremy Goldberg, LeagueApps; Adam Grant, Author and organizational psychologist; George Gresham, President of 1199 SEIU UHE; Hill Harper; Aaron Holiday, 645 Ventures; Anthony Abraham Jack, Professor, Harvard University; John B.

The full text of the full page ad in the Washington Post reads as follows:

Dear United States Congress:

In January, 50 prominent women called for a Marshall Plan for Moms: a bold 360-plan to get women back to work that includes:

Direct payments to moms, who have had their paid labor in the workforce replaced by unseen, unpaid labor at home.

Passing long overdue policies like paid family leave, affordable childcare, and pay equity.

Retraining programs to ensure women can fill the jobs that will exist.

Plans to safely reopen schools 5 days a week.

We stand with them. We need a Marshall Plan for Moms — now.

When more than 30 years of progress for women in the workforce can be erased in 9 months, the underlying system is broken. It’s time to create a new structure that works for women, that respects and values their labor.

Men have a role to play.

As partners and fathers we need to start doing our share at home. Studies show we are failing.

As the majority of employers we also need to create more protections and flexibility for working moms, and to put an end to the «motherhood penalty» that punishes them for exercising it.

President Biden and Vice President Harris have called the crisis affecting moms a «national emergency.» We agree. For that we need Congress to pass a national solution: a Marshall Plan for Moms.

Women have been fighting for equality for centuries. Now is the time to finish that fight and rebuild our economy to finally value women’s work.

SK Group Closes $1.6 Billion Investment in Plug Power to Advance Hydrogen Strategy

NEW YORK, Feb. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — SK Group, South Korea’s largest energy provider and third-largest conglomerate, announced today the close of a $1.6 billion investment and strategic partnership with Plug Power Inc., a leading provider of hydrogen fuel cell and fueling solutions enabling e-mobility. The partnership is part of a long-term, multi-billion dollar plan by SK to help lead the global transition to a hydrogen economy and…

NEW YORK, Feb. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — SK Group, South Korea’s largest energy provider and third-largest conglomerate, announced today the close of a $1.6 billion investment and strategic partnership with Plug Power Inc., a leading provider of hydrogen fuel cell and fueling solutions enabling e-mobility. The partnership is part of a long-term, multi-billion dollar plan by SK to help lead the global transition to a hydrogen economy and make meaningful progress toward a more sustainable energy system.

Recognizing the importance of hydrogen as a clean alternative to traditional energy sources, SK Group has heightened its focus on building the infrastructure and developing the technology to make hydrogen energy a reality for global markets.  SK Holdings, the holding company of SK Group, has established a Hydrogen Business Development Center taking the lead of the group’s hydrogen long-term project that is comprised of members from SK’s energy companies, including SK Innovation and SK E&S.

This new center will guide the companies’ transition into the production and distribution of hydrogen energy, including the creation of a mass production facility and investments in global business opportunities. SK Group companies already are making strategic investments in their existing energy businesses and forming partnerships with global leaders in hydrogen energy technology. These actions include:

  • SK Group closed on its investment and strategic partnership with Plug Power, a company based in Latham, N.Y. Together, the companies plan to provide hydrogen fuel cell systems, hydrogen fueling stations and electrolyzers to Korean and other Asian markets. The investment was valued at $1.6 billion at signing today.
  • SK E&S has established a hydrogen development business, committing to producing 30,000 tons of liquefied hydrogen – utilizing product from SK Innovation – each year beginning in 2023, and 250,000 tons of «blue hydrogen» starting in 2025. SK E&S plans to become a global eco-friendly energy company that incorporates renewable energy sources by expanding its business to all areas of the hydrogen ecosystem, including production, distribution and sales.
  • SK E&S will use SK Energy’s gas stations and truck stops as Green Energy Hubs for hydrogen distribution. By 2025, the company aims to have created 280K tons of supply.

SK expects its investments in hydrogen to create $2.7 billion of net asset value by 2025. Across its operating companies and partnerships, SK is taking actions to support a robust hydrogen economy from end-to-end with a focus on every major phase – upstream production of raw materials, midstream transport of resources and downstream conversion into energy used by customers to power their vehicles, homes and businesses.

«The need for sustainable and green-focused energy solutions is crucial as we look at confronting the looming global climate crisis,» said Hyeongwook Choo, Head of Hydrogen Business Development Center of SK Holdings and President & CEO of SK E&S. «The establishment of SK’s Hydrogen Business Development Center, commitments to utilizing our companies’ facilities for green energy production and distribution, and the hydrogen-focused partnerships provide a solid foundation for us to make a substantial impact on the transition to a more sustainable future.»

The advancement of the hydrogen economy is widely viewed by experts as an important part of addressing climate change because hydrogen is a clean energy source that can be produced by a variety of sources, including natural gas or renewable energy such as solar and wind power.  Hydrogen also can be used for wide-ranging applications from powering forklifts to industrial complexes. The only direct by-product of hydrogen, when turned into electric power by a fuel cell, is water.

For these reasons, the World Economic Forum ranked green hydrogen – hydrogen made from renewable resources – as one the Top 10 Emerging Technologies in 2020. In the transportation sector alone, the use of hydrogen and fuel cells could reduce greenhouse gas emissions in light-duty vehicles by 50 percent to 90 percent or more compared to today’s gasoline vehicles, according to a U.S. Department of Energy analysis.

Hydrogen Investments Part of SK’s Commitment to ESG

SK Group is investing in the hydrogen industry as part of its broader commitment across all of its companies to advance businesses in line with positive Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) criteria. Based in Seoul, South Korea, SK Group includes more than 100 independent operating companies in diverse areas including semiconductors, telecommunications, energy and life sciences. At SK, sustainability is deeply intertwined in the business models as part of the core philosophy of all SK operating companies to create both economic and social value.

SK Innovation is a prominent global energy company that is leading the charge in future energy development.  The company is building two SK Battery America plants in Commerce, Ga. – a $2.6 billion investment in the Georgia economy that will mass produce batteries for the growing electric vehicle industry and employ 2,600 U.S. workers.

SK E&S operates and supplies electricity from its LNG power plants. The company is evolving its traditional operations to become a global clean energy and solution provider with investments focused across solar, wind and fuel cell energy sources. In 2020, SK E&S announced a $150 million investment in a new venture with Sunrun Inc., a leading home solar, battery storage and energy services company, to advance the development of a modern energy system.

«Across all our operating companies, we recognize the need to capitalize on our expertise and broad resources to help lead the charge towards a more sustainable future,» Choo said. «We strive to leave a lasting, positive influence on the communities in which we serve, and the most important way to do that now is to help ensure those communities will be able to prosper long-term both economically and socially.»

About SK
Based in Seoul, South Korea, SK Group is a collection of diverse multi-national manufacturing and service companies united under a holding company structure that share a common SK Brand and Corporate Culture. SK strives to build the industries that drive future financial and social prosperity. SK Group companies are global leaders in semiconductors, telecommunications, energy and life sciences. These companies combined have $119 billion in annual global revenue and more than 100,000 employees worldwide.  For more information on SK, visit http://www.sk.com/.

Asia Pacific was the largest region in the global motor vehicle and parts dealers market, accounting for 37% of the market in 2020. North America was the second largest region accounting for 34% of the global motor vehicle and parts dealers market. Africa was the smallest region in the global motor vehicle and parts dealers market.

Motor vehicle dealers are increasingly offering unique experiences and features to meet customer expectations. Experiential retail refers to a store which offers consumers a chance to buy an experience rather than just an object or service. This trend is driven largely by millennial and their preference for experiences over things. These stores often use technology such as augmented reality and combine traditional elements with mobile apps and activities. For instance, car brand Audi has integrated virtual reality (VR) experience in their showrooms to attract potential customers. The company designed the VR experience to present its vehicles to potential customers in a more personalized and engaging manner, while solving the issue of smaller dealerships being unable to stock more than five cars.

The outbreak of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the motor vehicle and parts dealers market in 2020 as supply chains were disrupted due to trade restrictions and consumption declined due to lockdowns imposed by governments globally. COVID 19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty in breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China and spread globally including Western Europe, North America and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in decline in manufacture and trade of non-essential goods and an overall decline in economic activity with countries entering a state of ‘lock down’ and the outbreak is expected to continue to have a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the motor vehicle and parts dealers market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a ‘black swan’ event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy.

The motor vehicle and parts dealers are adopting a robust and cohesive strategy for data analytics in management. This technology is being deployed to enhance supply chain efficiency, streamline operations to engage customers and building loyalty, data has become critical for most retail operations. With the rapid growth in retail data and the availability of technologies to analyse data it will become easier for motor vehicle and parts dealers to identify and meet the needs and expectations of their customers , thus it is expected to drive the market going forward.

BOXBOROUGH, Mass., Feb. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — KiloVault®, a provider of innovative and affordable residential and commercial renewable energy solutions, today unveiled the third iteration of their HAB™ series of wall-mount energy storage systems. The HAB™ 7.5 V3 provides the same powerful 7.5 kilowatt-hours of storage, safety, and expandability of its predecessors, and features several key upgrades for a cleaner more convenient set up.

«The HAB has quickly risen to become the top seller for the KiloVault line,» says Product Manager Andrea Belford. «Customers appreciate its built-in display, easy expandability, and no-fuss reliability as a backup power solution.»

The HAB 7.5 V3 has several key improvements incorporated based on customer feedback:

  • The HAB V3 has increased ventilation to improve performance and battery life in warmer climates. The unit is rated IP54 for dust and splash protection. The four vents can be swapped out with solid plates (included) to meet the IP55 rating for water jet protection, allowing outdoor installation.
  • The wiring panel of the HAB has been completely redesigned for improved serviceability, with more space and additional ports on the bottom, left, and right sides of the wiring panel. Power and communication cable connections are now easier than ever.
  • Larger integrated lift handles allow for easier wall-mounted installation, and fold completely out of the way when they’re not needed.

Ideal for expandable energy storage in off-grid or hybrid applications, the HAB integrates with leading inverters at a lower lifetime cost than competitive offerings, and can store power from a variety of sources. Each HAB contains a non-toxic, thermally stable LiFePO4 battery with UL1642-certified cells. With built-in WiFi and the convenient HAB iT app on iOS and Android, monitoring your battery health and performance is easier than ever. Connecting your HAB to the HAB iT cloud allows it to receive automatic firmware updates.

The HAB is designed for a long and productive life, and now comes with a flexible warranty to meet a variety of performance needs. Depending on the charging profile, the HAB is now backed with either a 10-year/6,000-cycle extended life warranty when configured to charge at lower rates, or a 7.5-year/4,000-cycle warranty when configured for maximum charging capability.

HydroLand Acquires 25 Megawatt Portfolio of Hydroelectric Assets from Enel Green Power North America

BAINBRIDGE ISLAND, Wash., Feb. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Today HydroLand, a national renewable energy company transforming the way energy is created and delivered, announced it acquired a 25 megawatt portfolio of hydroelectric facilities from Enel Green Power North America, Inc. («Enel»).

«The closing of this acquisition is a major step for us as we execute our plan to acquire, optimize and modernize underutilized hydroelectric facilities and ultimately turn them into green energy parks that support the transition to renewable energy,» said Cory Lagerstrom, CEO of HydroLand.

Hydropower is the oldest and still the largest source of renewable energy, limited only by finding the right locations. The portfolio acquired from Enel comprises 13 «run-of-river» environmentally friendly facilities located throughout the Mid-Atlantic, South, and Western US, including California.

Run-of-river hydroelectric plants are small when compared to large-scale hydroelectric facilities. There is tremendous potential for developing more hydropower by taking existing facilities and increasing their capacity with modern equipment and operating systems. Many of these facilities are up to 70 years old and can be retrofitted for enhanced power generating capacity and efficiency.

«Run-of-river hydro has been our company‘s foundation in the US and Canada. As Enel Green Power has grown and evolved in North America, so, too, has our strategic focus to grow in areas that best support our global growth targets. We‘re proud to have developed and maintained this hydropower portfolio while our focus increasingly turned to wind and solar,» said Georgios Papadimitriou, Head of Enel Green Power North America.

Through a disciplined engineering and environmentally friendly approach, HydroLand is restoring and improving hydroelectric facilities to deliver modern, state-of-the art electric generation for the grid.

This acquisition is one of many more to come that will allow HydroLand to ultimately create green energy parks across American primarily in the Northeast and West.

HydroLand
HydroLand is building America‘s next great renewable energy company based on run-of-river hydroelectric facilities that will become green energy parks and economic development engines in their rural communities.
