AES reveals Advancion 4 with first commercial deployment
   
Last week, we announced the first deployment of Advancion 4, the next generation of battery-based energy storage, at our Warrior Run facility in Cumberland, Maryland. Advancion is a complete, battery-based alternative to peaking power plants that provides a dependable, smart and cost-competitive means to modernize power systems. Advancion 4 is among the most proven energy storage platforms available, resulting from our more than eight years of commercial experience operating grid-connected energy storage. 
INNOVATION AT AES
AES Brazil's innovation program yields results

AES Brazil's innovation program, i9, selects and manages innovation ideas that have the potential to generate a return on investment for AES. A few project prototypes have already been identified including a mobile app for electricians, an energy efficiency certification and an electric vehicle charging station among others. Thanks to the program, 450 people were trained and 18 people were successfully certified as program advocates. In addition, a new online portal, the Rede de Ideias, can be accessed by AES Brazil people on the intranet. The portal enables people to vote on ideas proposed. AES people can "invest" in an idea which helps ideas move forward through the pipeline. Keep the good ideas flowing, AES Brazil!
ALWAYS ON FOR SAFETY
Faustino Cabrera is Always On for Safety

Faustino is a Field Operator at AES Nejapa, a methane gas plant in El Salvador, part of the MCAC SBU, which generates energy from a local landfill. He has worked at AES for the last four years. When you are Always On, you prevent incidents from happening by doing things the right way. This is exactly what Faustino does. For example, he helped the plant in the implementation of changes required due to the modification of the Job Safety Analysis and Pre-Job Briefing Safety Standard. He double-checked the forms related to this standard to make sure that the new procedures were strictly followed. He uses his experience and knowledge to ensure things at the plant are done the right way, the safe way.
