Business Leaders Gather to Forge Solutions to Energy Affordability, Reliability, and Growth

Posted on by sHq_LoGiNz

America’s largest Hispanic-owned business association hosts national summit this month

SANTA FE, N.M., April 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (USHCC) will bring together energy sector leaders, policymakers, and Hispanic business owners at the 2026 USHCC Energy Summit to address the issues that hit balance sheets and household budgets the hardest: energy affordability, infrastructure, and reliability.

“From transportation and logistics to engineering design and construction and everything in between, America’s Hispanic-owned small and medium-sized businesses provide the goods and services that are essential to building, maintaining, and modernizing our energy infrastructure,” said Ramiro A. Cavazos, president and CEO of USHCC. “If engaged properly, they represent a game-changing competitive advantage for the nation’s energy sector.”

The U.S. Latino economy has grown to $4.1 trillion, ranking among the world’s top five economies if measured on its own and growing faster than the overall U.S. economy, making Hispanic participation in energy policy, capital, and market opportunity a national competitiveness issue.

Why the energy conversation matters now

AI is reshaping the energy landscape and driving new electricity demand from data centers while providing utilities new efficiency tools that can help keep the lights on and costs down.

This requires opening new market opportunities to deliver a more reliable, affordable, and future ready energy system that supports business margins, creates jobs, and strengthens local communities.

How the Summit drives growth

Energy costs and reliability can make or break a business’s bottom line. The 2026 USHCC Energy Summit helps advance America’s energy agenda by bringing together policy leaders, industry experts, and Hispanic business executives, plugging the fastest‑growing segment of American enterprise into the rapidly expanding energy industry.

Putting America’s Hispanic business leaders at the table with representatives from across the energy sector will “facilitate contracts, create new jobs, and boost local economies in ways that improve energy affordability and reliability for all,” Cavazos said.

As America’s energy system evolves alongside emerging technologies like AI, keeping the lights on and costs down will allow companies to expand, hire, and build stronger communities.

The 2026 USHCC Energy Summit will take place in Santa Fe, New Mexico on April 20-22. Learn more about the summit, the agenda, and speakers here: 2026 Energy Summit

Ceasefire in Lebanon, but Humanitarian Crisis Continues

  • 24% of the population continues to suffer from food insecurity.
  • More than 1.2 million people are displaced, including 390,000 children
  • Some villages do not have access to water, hospitals, or livelihood opportunities
  • 15% of children aged 6 to 23 months in displacement zones are fed only milk — a serious nutritional risk
  • Action Against Hunger is maintaining and adapting its health, nutrition and essential services interventions to continue reaching the displaced population.

NEW YORK and BEIRUT, April 17, 2026 /3BL/ – Following the announcement of a ceasefire in Lebanon, the humanitarian situation remains extremely fragile. Action Against Hunger warns that the cessation of hostilities has not brought immediate relief to the most vulnerable population, who continue to face displacement, massive destruction and a lack of access to basic services.

In the hours following the announcement, Action Against Hunger has observed very intense population movement with diverse patterns of mobility.

“Many people are trying to return to their homes, others are trying to return just to check on the condition of their homes, and others are unable to do so or decide to wait for fear of further displacement,” says Sonia Ben Salem, Action Against Hunger’s advocacy coordinator in Lebanon.

Currently, there are already more than 1,200,000 displaced people in Lebanon, including 390,000 children.

Action Against Hunger was already responding to needs before the ceasefire, so program activities are continuing, but there will be a shift in geographical focus depending on population movements.

Returning to destroyed homes

People trying to return home are finding themselves with nowhere to go.

“Many people are returning to homes that have been destroyed or severely damaged. Others cannot return because they live in areas declared high-risk, where clashes are still taking place,” explains Sonia. “The level of destruction in some areas is comparable to that in Gaza: entire villages razed to the ground, with no water, no hospitals, no means of livelihood.”

The primary need of the displaced population remains a safe and dignified place to stay, along with access to water, healthcare and other essential services.

A ceasefire does not eliminate vulnerability; the locations change, but needs remain

The ceasefire on its own does not reduce the population’s vulnerability or bring the emergency to an end. That is why our teams continue to adapt their response to new needs.

“It is not so much a question of changing what we do, but where we do it. The needs existed before the ceasefire and remain the same now,” explains Sonia. “We are adjusting our presence to continue reaching the places where people are moving to.”

Health and nutrition activities, which are vital for saving lives, remain a priority. It has been found that around 15% of children aged 6 to 23 months in displacement zones are fed only milk, posing a high risk to their health. Furthermore, 24% of the population faces acute food insecurity, a figure that has not decreased following the announcement of the ceasefire.

“A ceasefire does not restore homes, guarantee food or re-establish basic services. Vulnerability does not disappear overnight, and needs will persist for a long time if there is no reconstruction and restoration of public services,” concludes Sonia Ben Salem.

Action Against Hunger has been present in Lebanon since 2006, providing essential support to over 603,624 people in 2024. Currently, 112 members of the Action Against Hunger team are working in Lebanon.

GAC Tech Day 2026 Unveils Five Core Technologies to Lead Smart Mobility

Posted on by sHq_LoGiNz

GUANGZHOU, China, April 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — GAC Tech Day 2026 was grandly held at GAC Group’s Panyu headquarters. The event fully showcased GAC’s latest innovative achievements across New Hybrid, New Body, New Intelligence, New Architecture, and Chinese Chips, marking a strategic evolution from a technology-driven to a user-driven mobility experience.

GAC Group President Xia Xianqing stated: “Our commitment remains unchanged: to root ourselves in technology, put our users first, and build a resilient GAC. We are determined to bring users a reliable intelligent mobility life with leading experience.”

Five Core Technologies at a Glance

ADiMOTION Power is GAC’s all-new power technology brand, comprising ADiMOTION Range Extension, ADiMOTION PHEV, and ADiMOTION HEV+, providing users with full-scenario power solutions. The ADiMOTION PHEV, certified by China Automotive Technology and Research Center as a “High-Quality Hybrid,” drives B-class MPV fuel consumption into the 3-liter era. The ADiMOTION HEV+ features an industry-first 5.4kWh high-rate safety battery, propelling fuel hybrid technology into the 2.0 era.

Starship Body adopts an industry-first “Embedded Frame + Multi-Ring Cage” design, integrating the advantages of monocoque and body-on-frame bodies. With a torsional stiffness of 38,000N•m/° and 5-ton towing capacity, it delivers both off-road toughness and comfortable daily commuting.

ADiGO Intelligence features a Cloud-Edge Integrated Architecture with three AI engines — perception, multi-agent collaboration, and emotional expression — evolving the smart cockpit from reactive to proactively understanding users’ needs.

X-SOUL Architecture 4.0 serves as the vehicle’s digital foundation, achieving an industry-first six-domain fusion of intelligent driving, cockpit, powertrain, chassis, body, and connectivity. Full-vehicle OTA upgrades are completed in as fast as 8 minutes, ranking first in the industry.

In the Chip Ecosystem, GAC has completed joint development of nearly 400 chips with 105 ecological partners. The HYPTEC GT Climbing Edition — China’s first intelligent NEV with 100% domestic chip design — will be launched soon. GAC also announced it will open all chip achievements to the entire industry, empowering rail transit, low-altitude economy, and embodied intelligence sectors.

Built on technology, GAC continues to forge ahead, contributing its strength to China’s march toward becoming a global automotive powerhouse.
