Decarbonization progress


In April 2022, The Boston Globe reported Vicinity was launching eSteam™, a first-of-its-kind innovation in the United States designed to rapidly decarbonize the highest source of emissions in commercial buildings. The company became the first in the U.S. to electrify its operations, offering renewable thermal energy by installing electric boilers, industrial-scale heat pumps, and thermal storage at its central facilities starting in Boston and Cambridge, with its other facilities around the country to follow. The company is committed to reaching net zero carbon emissions across all of its operations by 2050 or sooner.
In April, 2023, Vicinity Energy and announced a partnership with the Augsburg, Germany-based organization MAN Energy Solutions to collaborate in developing low-temperature source heat pump systems for steam generation. Vicinity plans to install an industrial-scale heat pump complex at its Cambridge facility, and once installed, it will be powered by renewable electricity to harvest energy from the Charles River safely and efficiently, returning it to a lower temperature so as not to harm the river’s environment.
In November 2023, Vicinity announced the arrival of a 42MW industrial-scale electric boiler at the Kendall Square facility in Cambridge. The electrode boiler was provided by Precision Boilers (Thermon). After passing a factory acceptance test, the boiler was delivered to our Kendall facility to be prepared for installation. Once operational, the boiler will enable the immediate production of eSteam™, Vicinity’s award-winning carbon-free thermal energy product
