According to analyses by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), U.S. manufacturers spend over $125 billion on energy annually. Of this, 35% to 40% is lost or wasted, equating to roughly $40 to $50 billion down the drain every year. Industrial Efficiency and Decarbonization Office (IEDO): Maps the flow of energy losses in major manufacturing subsectors to help plants target inefficient boilers, fired heaters, and process heating systems. JLM has a major focus on E-Boilers using MW thermal batteries to supplement up to 50%-100% of energy usage. Thermal batteries in manufacturing plants store surplus renewable energy as heat in materials like carbon or graphite. They provide a reliable, low-cost solution for heavy industry. By converting cheap electricity into high-temperature heat or steam, they successfully replace natural gas boilers, cut energy costs, and decarbonize industrial processes.
Tires Sector
J Lyons Marketing has covered the top 50 global tyre brands on new tech for the past twenty-five years. The main focus has been on the new material side: hard carbon, the same as in battery anodes, typically a bio- or upcycled material. According to the researchers, about 30 per cent of a tyre is made of carbon black, a petroleum-based filler usually obtained from overseas. The top ten tyre brands command 300+ plants worldwide, 50+ in North America, Mexico, the United States & Canada, and Europe has close to 50 plants as well. Thermal batteries can be use in production in the creation of steam 24/ 7 and retread tire plants with less steam energy requirements.
Glass Sector
JLM's main focus has been on new tech for higher efficiency. According to the US Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, $50 billion in energy is lost in America’s buildings, with windows being the weak point. Windows are the single largest source of energy loss in buildings. To ensure our planet’s survival, the energy efficiency of buildings must improve exponentially. The OEM market coverage includes Architecture, Container, and Optics Speciality. The global glass manufacturing market is valued at approximately $135-$137 billion and is projected to surpass $200 billion by the early 2030s. Growth is driven by expanding construction, automotive manufacturing, and sustainable packaging sectors, alongside strong demand for solar energy and flat glass.

The market has two main powerhouses : Estée Lauder and L'Oréal are the undisputed titans of the global beauty industry, dominating the market through distinct business strategies. While L'Oréal leads global sales volume with a broad, accessible portfolio of over 30 brands, Estée Lauder focuses heavily on prestige, luxury skincare, and makeup. Together have 25 plants in North America and Europe.
Big Tobacco
The US tobacco industry is among the world’s largest producers of tobacco products. It is characterised by the presence of a few well-established large companies that manufacture most units produced, as well as many medium and small companies producing a variety of brands. These tobacco companies produce a variety of tobacco product categories, including cigarettes, cigars and cigarillos, smokeless tobacco products, oral nicotine products, electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS), pipe tobacco, and roll-your-own tobacco. For over a century, dynamic changes, including mergers, acquisitions, and new product launches, have been occurring in the US tobacco industry. These dynamic changes in the US tobacco industry landscape are complex and difficult to fully understand without data visualisation.

Tempo Energy has pioneered a new class of energy storage – Thermochemical energy storage (TCES). Tempo TCES modules store both heat and chemical energy via a metal-oxide redox reaction, enabling energy densities on par with Li-Ion but at a fraction of the cost. Tempo TCES units have undergone several years of daily cycling with no degradation and with temperatures delivered above 1100°C and up to 1500°C for the entire discharge making the solution perfectly suited to replace natural gas in industrial applications. Ideal sites with low electric energy cost due to renewable energy ( Solar ) but high natural gas cost. Spain as an example

Renovation glass coating technology is based on colloidal sol-gel materials, where specially formulated solutions self-assemble into a monolayer surface structure. The use of wet chemical technology makes it possible to use simple low tech application methods like spray and wipe, spray atomising or dip coating.
After the curing, which is the evaporation of the carrier liquid, the material bonds to the surface and the coating will self-assemble into the formulated and ultra-thin coating layer. The final coating layer thickness is in the nanoscale and is completely invisible. Functions can be added. Within the limitation of the overall thickness, it is also possible to add scratch resistance and dust-reducing properties.
This structure gives the glass a highly durable hydrophobic effect.
The completely invisible treatment cannot be removed by water, cleaning agent or high-pressure equipment. The extremely thin coating is a result of the lowest consumption rate on the market. Coverage rates of 400 square meters per litre (14,000 square feet per gallon) are possible. NG 1010, for example, is the most cost-effective and fastest-to-apply glass coating solution available.

Curvite bio-sugar carbon powders do not directly compete with any petroleum-based or plant-based polymer. Instead, they provide a zero net carbon, low-cost, plant-based alternative to petroleum-based carbon powers in many potential applications. Curvite carbon powders would replace current commercial carbon powders as fillers in various polymers in tires. Many polymers use carbon fillers to achieve their performance properties for multiple applications. Any manufacturer that produces products containing a polymer with a carbon powder filler would like to make both the polymer and the filler as environmentally friendly as possible.
Curvite powders have the big advantage of being plant-based and carbon-neutral. Also, plant-based, activated carbons have complex 3-D structures and high surface areas, making them better suited as binder material.
