  Fed minutes: Officials deeply divided over future path of U.S. inflation

  The Federal Reserve has released minutes showing officials are divided over the future path of inflation and interest rates.

  • Many participants said the policy rate would be unchanged from or slightly below 3.6% by year-end, while many others thought it would be higher; a few officials saw “a case for raising” rates at the June 16-17 meeting, but the committee voted unanimously to keep rates unchanged.
  • Officials linked inflation risk to the Iran war, fading tariff effects, and especially AI infrastructure demand, which they said could raise prices for semiconductors, computer equipment, and electricity; the Federal Reserve Bank of New York said 1-year inflation expectations rose to 3.7% and 3-year expectations to 3.3%.

  Capstone Energy+ touts air-bearing microturbines for behind-the-meter energy

  Capstone Energy+ CEO Vince Canino says facility managers are increasingly turning to behind-the-meter energy strategies as grid constraints grow.

  • Canino said the trend is being driven by utility capacity constraints, especially for data centers, EV charging, and building electrification; Capstone’s air-bearing microturbines are positioned as quiet, low-emissions on-site power.
  • He cited deployments including an auto shredder recycling plant in Los Angeles that planned to build its own plant because the utility could not deliver power for 3-4 years, and a Riu Hotel in New York City roof installation with six C65 units providing electricity and hot water.
  • Capstone offers 30 kW, 65 kW, and 200 kW engines, with options to lease, purchase, lease-to-own, power purchase agreements, or energy service agreements; the company completed a financial restructuring in 2023 and resumed trading on Nasdaq on July 8 after a three-year hiatus.

  Manure-to-energy projects eye data centres as new market, raising environmental concerns

  The article explains that manure-based biogas is being used and promoted as a renewable energy source for data centres and cryptocurrency mining, while critics warn it may reinforce factory-farm expansion.

  • Ag-Grid Energy operates a project at Lent Hill Dairy Farm in Steuben County, New York, where two anaerobic co-digesters convert manure from around 4,000 cows and more than 45,000 gallons of food waste per day into renewable natural gas (RNG) used to power an on-site cryptocurrency mining facility.
  • The company says it also plans to support small-scale data centres in rural areas with on-site power generation and fibre-optic connectivity; the article adds that Vanguard Renewables operates or develops more than 50 co-digesters in the US and aims for more than 100 by end-2028, while biogas projects have received over $150 million from the Inflation Reduction Act and more than $100 million in private bonds approved by the Michigan Strategic Fund.
