CREW Carbon provides process intensification for municipal and industrial wastewater, while removing greenhouse gases. Our alkalinity enhancement technology integrates into existing infrastructure to improve biological treatment, reduce operational costs, and permanently sequester CO2. By optimizing water quality conditions such as pH and alkalinity, we can replace hazardous chemicals with natural minerals and real-time monitoring. This stabilizes biological nutrient removal and improves settleability, helping utilities get more out of their existing assets while evolving into the worlds next generation of climate hubs.

reThought Flood uses advanced data analytics to provide location specific information about flood risk. We’ve developed award-winning Flood Resilience Scores (FRS) based on publicly available data about the construction, composition, footprint, location, and other physical characteristics of buildings, which have a dramatic impact on their vulnerability to flood. This allows reThought to provide affordable, stable pricing based on the risk you actually have, not the risk of the entire zone you happen to be in.

Noteworthy provides fleet vehicle-mounted smart cameras + AI that help utilities evaluate the condition of the electric distribution grid at-scale while reducing O&M costs. --- There are billions of utility poles globally and they are notoriously difficult to manage. Its extremely challenging for utilities to know exactly where these assets are, what’s on them and what condition they are in. Why? Because collecting and analyzing the data necessary to answer these questions is currently a slow, manual and costly process - often done by sending out dedicated crews and trucks with binoculars, cameras and paper forms. This process is expensive, difficult to scale, and it doesn’t adequately mitigate risks related to grid reliability, resiliency and safety. Noteworthys fleet vehicle-mounted smart cameras + AI help utilities collect and analyze data on distribution assets at-scale while reducing O&M costs. By operating fully autonomously during routine vehicle operations, Noteworthy can increase situational awareness and realize cost savings and efficiencies across a variety of use cases including geolocation and asset inventory, asset inspection, vegetation management, joint use / attachment compliance and unregulated lighting assessments.
