Entergy is working alongside the American Red Cross to support communities impacted by the severe winter weather. Our annual $250,000 disaster relief grant, donated by Entergy shareholders, enables the American Red Cross to provide essential supplies, food, water and shelter to those affected across our service area in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas.

“We are grateful to have the American Red Cross as our partner during these crucial times. Their support enables us to enhance our efforts in serving our communities and ensures that our customers have access to safe, warm places and essential resources,” said Patty Riddlebarger, Entergy’s vice president of corporate social responsibility.

As our crews continue efforts to restore power to those affected by the storm, the collaboration with the American Red Cross helps address the immediate needs of individuals and families in our communities.

Our support across the region:

  • Arkansas: Red Cross chapters actively monitored the situation following the winter storm. With resources ready to be deployed, the Red Cross was prepared to respond to community needs in coordination with emergency management partners.
  • Louisiana: The Red Cross and its partners provided support to 21 shelters across the state. Supplies such as blankets, comfort kits, cots, water, and snacks were pre-positioned to help those in need. Additionally, Entergy employee volunteers underwent training to assist as shelter workers as demand increased.
  • Mississippi: In Lee, Bolivar, and Wilkinson counties, the Red Cross opened three shelters. These shelters provided assistance to residents impacted by the cold weather and power outages, with a steady increase in the number of individuals seeking shelter. Essential supplies and food were maintained at all locations, while teams developed feeding strategies for the surrounding rural areas.
  • Texas: The American Red Cross supported nine shelters throughout Southeast Texas.

Open houses met with excitement for proposed Powered Data Park’s data center and new dedicated power generation

MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Last week, Geronimo Power (Geronimo) welcomed community members and residents to their new office space in Worthington, Minnesota to discuss and answer questions around the proposed Nobles County Powered Data Park (PDP). The Open House event took place over two Minnesota cold days, with ten education stations that covered topics ranging from permitting and construction schedules to water usage and impacts on electric rates for local residents.

“Our Community First approach is rooted in our commitment to being open and transparent throughout all phases of a project, especially early on when we know that there are many questions from the local community,” said David Reamer, Chief Development Officer at Geronimo. “This commitment has been our company’s foundational value since we were formed in 2004 by a Minnesota farmer – and it remains the driving force behind everything we do.”

“The open house was a great opportunity for us to have conversations with and listen to our neighbors – and we really appreciate that so many people braved the cold to come out and meet with us,” stated Jordan Burmeister, the lead Developer on the Nobles County PDP and a member of the Geronimo team since 2009. “In my 16 years with the company, this has always been how we develop and operate, and I’m very proud to work for a company that continues to lead the industry in how to engage and work side-by-side with our project community members.”

The Nobles County PDP is comprised of a data center collocated with new local, clean power generation which will supply power to the data center, helping to strengthen the region’s electric grid, protect ratepayers, and ensure that economic investment and impact remain local. The project is anticipated to contribute hundreds of new construction and operations jobs, long-term infrastructure investments, and millions in new tax revenue for the local school district, townships, county and state over the life of the project.

Representatives from Nobles Cooperative Electric were also present at the event. Nobles Cooperative Electric is a member-owned electric distribution cooperative that serves residential, agricultural, and commercial members across southwestern Minnesota. Headquartered in Slayton, Minnesota, the cooperative will provide electric service to the proposed data center as part of its service territory.  

“We really value the community-focused approach that Geronimo has taken with this project,” said Adam Tromblay, CEO of Nobles Cooperative Electric. “They’ve been open and transparent from the start and have taken the time to listen to our members and local stakeholders throughout the process. That kind of collaboration matters in rural communities, and we value the opportunity to work with a company like Geronimo that has deep experience developing projects in rural areas that will support the local economy.”

About Geronimo Power
Geronimo Power develops, owns and operates large-scale power assets throughout America’s Heartland, including solar, wind and energy storage. As a farmer-founded and community-focused business, Geronimo Power equips landowners and rural communities with sustainable revenue to ignite local economic growth. To learn more about Geronimo Power, visit www.geronimopower.com or follow the company on LinkedIn.

The historic campaign, which highlights patient journeys and underscores the powerful impact donors can make, has privately raised $335 million toward its $400 million goal

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — St. Louis Children’s Hospital announced the public phase of its “I Am Proof” campaign, a $400 million fundraising effort designed to expand access to world-class pediatric care, accelerate groundbreaking pediatric research at WashU Medicine, and enhance the patient and family experience for the more than 270,000 children a year who seek care at St. Louis Children’s.

The campaign—which highlights patient care journeys and underscores the powerful impact donors can make—has privately raised more than $335 million toward its $400 million goal. The early success of the campaign reflects its strong philanthropic leadership and provides extraordinary momentum for public support.

“Supporting pediatric research is one of the most meaningful investments we can make,” said James S. McDonnell, honorary chair of the “I Am Proof” campaign. “Through the Children’s Discovery Institute, St. Louis Children’s Hospital, its Foundation, and WashU Medicine collaborate to make discoveries that lead to better treatments and cures for children with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. I’m honored to help lead a campaign that will advance this critical work and continue to strengthen St. Louis as a center for pediatric innovation.”

The “I Am Proof” fundraising campaign focuses on three priorities that reflect St. Louis Children’s leadership as Missouri’s No. 1 children’s hospital:

  • Advancing Scientific Discovery: Through investments in WashU Medicine pediatric research and innovation, anchored by the Children’s Discovery Institute (CDI), donors support a campaign that will enable St. Louis Children’s and WashU Medicine to establish disease-specific centers of excellence. These centers will accelerate discoveries that lead to treatments and cures for children.
  • Expanding Access to Care: St. Louis Children’s and WashU Medicine are committed to reaching children where they live, learn, and play—extending revolutionary pediatric health care beyond the hospital walls. Campaign donations will support community-based programs like Healthy Kids Express, mobile health care units that deliver essential care directly to children who might not otherwise receive it.
  • Enhancing the Patient and Family Experience: Campaign contributions will enable St. Louis Children’s to support spaces and services that bring comfort and relief during challenging times. This support includes St. Louis Children’s Center for Families, open 24/7, which provides a welcoming place for parents to rest, do laundry, enjoy snacks, and find comfort while their child receives care.

The campaign priorities are outlined in greater detail on the “I Am Proof” website, which shares stories of patients, families, care teams, physicians, and donors who are helping bring this vision to life. In addition, the campaign will be featured regionally on colorful billboards and highlighted through local radio, television, and online promotions. To learn more or to make a gift, visit StLouisChildrens.org/IAmProof or contact Tanya Waskiewicz at 314.286.0971.

Early commitment and funding have built the necessary momentum for the public campaign

Leadership commitments from James S. McDonnell III, members of the Taylor and Kindle families, along with Enterprise Mobility, Dana Brown Charitable Trust, Emerson, Nestlé Purina PetCare Company, the Hauck Charitable Foundation, Robert and Signa Hermann Jr., Richard G.

Early funding from these gifts supports transformational initiatives across all three campaign pillars:

  • Scientific Discovery: Establishing disease-specific pediatric research centers of excellence as part of the Children’s Discovery Institute, including the Center for Brain Development and Neurological Disorders; Center for Gene and Cell-Based Therapies; Center for Pediatric Immunology; Center for Pediatric Pulmonary Disease and Asthma; Center for Rare, Undiagnosed and Genetic Diseases; Hermann Center for Child and Family Development; and McDonnell Pediatric Cancer Research Center.
  • Access to Care: Expanding outreach programs like Healthy Kids Express and advancing the development of the mental wellness campus to expand behavioral health services and increase access to care across the region.
  • Patient and Family Experience: Enhancing programs and spaces that support families during their care journeys, including pet therapy, the new Child Life Zone, and the Center for Families.

“My family and I have a deep love and passion for our hometown, and we believe in giving back to help make this community as strong as possible,” said Chrissy Taylor, CEO of Enterprise Mobility and campaign co-chair. “Unfortunately, too many children in our region still face barriers to receiving the care they need. Programs like Healthy Kids Express are powerful examples of how this campaign will bring critical services directly to kids who might not receive them otherwise. Together, we can make sure every child has access to outstanding care, right here at home.”

For nearly 150 years, St. Louis Children’s, in collaboration with WashU Medicine pediatric physician specialists, has provided exceptional care to children and families from every state and more than 80 countries. WashU Medicine pediatric specialists are the physicians who treat patients at St. Louis Children’s. Physicians and researchers at WashU Medicine advance discovery and lead innovative clinical trials, giving children and families more answers and treatment options for the most common to the most complex conditions. As the hospital continues to expand its programs and facilities to meet growing regional needs, the “I Am Proof” campaign provides the resources to strengthen its legacy of excellence.

“St. Louis Children’s has a storied history of serving children and families with heart, innovation, and excellence,” said John Stupp Jr., campaign co-chair. “This campaign both honors that legacy and secures the future—fueling discoveries, advancing cures, and ensuring generations of children continue to receive world-class care and support.”

In 2025, U.S. News & World Report again recognized St. Louis Children’s as one of America’s Best Children’s Hospitals, ranking St. Louis Children’s as No. 1 in Missouri, No. 1 in St. Louis, and No. 3 in the Midwest region.

NEWARK, Del., Jan. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The global commercial building landscape is undergoing a “respiratory” revolution. According to a comprehensive new market report, the Global Dedicated Outdoor Air System (DOAS) Market is valued at USD 5.2 billion in 2025 and is projected to skyrocket to USD 12.4 billion by 2035.

This steady 9.0% CAGR reflects a fundamental shift in how we design indoor environments. In a post-pandemic world, “good enough” ventilation is no longer acceptable. Facility managers are pivotting toward DOAS—technology that decouples the heating and cooling of a building from its ventilation—ensuring 100% fresh air delivery without the massive energy penalty of traditional HVAC systems.

“Driven by a 9.0% CAGR, Dedicated Outdoor Air Systems (DOAS) are Moving from Niche Efficiency Tools to Essential Infrastructure for Post-Pandemic Building Safety and Net-Zero Goals.”

Decoupling the Load: The Science of Efficiency

Traditional HVAC systems often struggle to manage humidity while cooling a space. DOAS solves this by handling the “latent load” (moisture) and “sensible load” (temperature) separately. This allows for precise humidity control, which is mission-critical for hospitals, data centers, and schools.

Key Market Takeaways (2025-2035):

  • Dominant Capacity: Mid-sized systems (20-40 Tons) lead the market with a 40.0% share, offering the perfect balance for office buildings and educational facilities.
  • The Retrofit Boom: Retrofit applications account for 56.0% of the market, as aging commercial stock is modernized to meet new IAQ (Indoor Air Quality) codes.
  • Energy Savings: Advanced DOAS configurations are proven to reduce total HVAC energy consumption by 30-40%, a critical metric for buildings aiming for LEED or Net-Zero certifications.

The Growth Equation: Why DOAS? Why Now?

The market expansion is fueled by three primary drivers:

  1. IAQ Regulation Tightening: Codes like ASHRAE 62.1 are becoming more stringent, mandating higher fresh-air intake to protect occupant health.
  2. Sustainability Mandates: With real estate owners facing “carbon taxes” in some jurisdictions, the energy recovery capabilities of DOAS (often exceeding 80% effectiveness) are financial lifesavers.
  3. Humidity Management: Precise dehumidification is now a requirement for infection control in healthcare and preventing mold in high-occupancy schools.

Regional Powerhouses: The Rise of East Asia

While North America and Europe remain established leaders due to strict building codes, East Asia is the new frontier for growth.

  • South Korea (11.5% CAGR): The global growth leader, driven by “Smart City” initiatives in Seoul and Busan. High-rise density necessitates the compact, vertical DOAS configurations that South Korean developers favor.
  • India (10.8% CAGR): Fueled by a massive boom in Tier-1 city technology parks and data centers requiring precise moisture control.
  • United States (9.2% CAGR): The “Stability Leader,” where growth is anchored in a massive wave of school and hospital retrofits funded by post-pandemic infrastructure grants.

Strategic Opportunity Pathways

The report identifies several key “Pathways” for stakeholders to capture value:

  • Pathway A: Mid-Capacity Leadership: Companies focusing on the 20-40 ton range are expected to tap into a revenue pool of USD 630-820 million by optimizing modular scalability.
  • Pathway E: Energy Recovery Excellence: As net-zero targets loom, systems with 80%+ energy recovery effectiveness will command premium pricing, targeting a USD 360-470 million revenue segment.
  • Pathway G: Smart Integration: The future of DOAS lies in cloud connectivity and predictive maintenance, allowing building owners to monitor IAQ in real-time via smartphone apps.

The Competitive Landscape

The market is dominated by global engineering titans, including Daikin Applied, Johnson Controls, Carrier, and Trane Technologies. These players are moving beyond simple “air moving” to offering “environmental intelligence.” Competition is moderate but intensifying as specialty manufacturers like Greenheck and Munters innovate in high-efficiency energy wheels and desiccant dehumidification.

“The DOAS market is no longer just about moving air; it’s about managing the ‘Health Score’ of a building,” says an industry analyst. “In 2035, a building without a dedicated outdoor air system will be as obsolete as a building without high-speed internet.”

About the Report

This 900-word executive briefing is based on the “Dedicated Outdoor Air System (DOAS) Market Forecast and Outlook (2025-2035)” report. It provides a granular analysis of capacity segments, implementation types (Retrofit vs. New Construction), and vertical applications across 40+ countries.

With nearly 25,000 organizations disclosing in 2025, nearly two-thirds of the global market are sharing progress on their environmental impacts such as climate change, water security, forests, and biodiversity. Using major frameworks, such as the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB), Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD), CDP is also helping organizations prepare for new and developing environment, social, and governance (ESG)-related regulatory disclosures around the world.

CDP Changes in 2026

For the 2026 reporting cycle, CDP is introducing updates to clarify reporting expectations, expand environmental topics, and better align disclosures with emerging global frameworks. The updates below summarize the most important changes for reporters.

Introduction of ocean-related issues into CDP’s existing framework and modules. While all organizations responding to the full corporate questionnaire will have the ability to opt in, CDP strongly encourages high-impact sectors, such as fishing and aquaculture, shipping, and offshore energy, to disclose ocean-related information. Ocean content in the 2026 questionnaire will not be scored, in line with CDP’s precedent of allowing organizations time to evaluate and prepare for disclosure.

For climate change, CDP is closely monitoring the Greenhouse Gases (GHG) Protocols for updates to their suite of standards and guidance materials, and will adjust questions as necessary. In response to the timeline of the GHG Protocol Land Sector and Removals Standard (LSRS), CDP does not expect organizations to report quantitative data in alignment yet, but will instead provide time for organizations to collect data and align in future cycles. CDP’s scoring for climate-related matters will be streamlined and clarified.

Organizations disclosing to the Forests questionnaire will see all seven commodities align, providing a more comprehensive, single score for forests. Commodity sub-scores will be provided to disclosers and data users.

Water security will now allow organizations to disclose validation of their freshwater targets. There will be specific questions regarding the level of wastewater treatment, as well as questions about how water pollutant management is measured for success.

As in past years, plastics and biodiversity modules will be made available for organizations to opt-in but remain unscored.

With the 2025 CDP behind us, now is the time to reflect on the Corporate Questionnaire and evaluate areas for improvement for the 2026 season. Whether you have reported for the past 25 years or are just starting your CDP journey, these actionable tips to help you prepare for the upcoming 2026 cycle.

Preparing for the 2026 Climate Change Disclosure

As climate disclosures continue to evolve, preparing for the 2026 cycle requires organizations to strengthen data, assess climate risks, and define transition pathways. The five steps below break this into practical, actionable actions.

1. Start Early

CDP has shared their commitment to enhancing the reporting experience, including providing clearer guidance materials, as it seeks to strengthen the link between data and action. The 2026 materials are scheduled to be released in late April. With the 2025 scores released, organizations can leverage the existing 2025 disclosure materials, including the Scoring Methodologies, to re-evaluate their most recent submissions. This approach can help reporters assess improvement opportunities and develop a strategy for 2026 and beyond.

Our Advice: Organizations should think of CDP as a strategic exercise, preparing their organization for compliance with current and developing ESG-related disclosures around the world.

2. Strategize Data Collection & Validation

Many global regulations, including California, Canada, United Kingdom, and the European Union, are mandating that greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories be disclosed and undergo assurance. As you prepare for CDP, think strategically about your data collection process. CDP is a great tool to help organizations gather information and understand the level of effort required from a voluntary perspective—before it becomes mandatory. The same can be said about water, forest, and biodiversity data, if applicable.

Our Advice: Begin by mapping where your emissions and environmental data lives across the organization and who owns it. While many organizations can readily calculate Scope 1 and 2 emissions, Scope 3 often presents the greatest challenge due to data gaps, supplier engagement, and methodological complexity. Use the GHG Protocols to define boundaries and prioritize material Scope 3 categories, focusing first on those most relevant to your business.

For water, forest, and biodiversity data, engage procurement and site teams early to support consistent data collection, particularly where monitoring is limited or information is needed from tier-one suppliers and beyond.

3. Conduct a Climate Risk Assessment and Scenario Analysis

Conduct a climate risk assessment and scenario analysis to help evaluate how current and potential future climate-related events could affect your business. By understanding these climate-related physical and transition risks, organizations can also uncover new opportunities as they build a more resilient organization. Scenario analysis is also an expectation for the European Union (EU) Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the International Financial Reporting Standards Sustainability Disclosure Standard S2, and is helpful for completing a TCFD report.

Our Advice: Undergoing complete scenario analyses and establishing business continuity plans enables organizations to mitigate risks associated with droughts, wildfires, floods, and beyond. It also future-proofs organizations by planning for long-term resiliency.

4. Set Environmental Targets

Setting meaningful targets—especially those aligned with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for climate, the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goal 6 for access to safe water, sanitation, and hygiene, or the —can lead to cost savings through more resource-efficient programs and strengthen brand reputation, in addition to meeting any applicable regulatory requirements or contractual obligations. Setting goals is also a requirement for achieving high marks across all three themes of CDP.

Our Advice: Leverage the right framework(s) to inform your goals, as both a best practice and starting point. While SBTi provides an excellent framework for many organizations, it may not be right for every organization or industry. Be sure to also evaluate what contractual obligations you may be facing and if you have any regulatory requirements that may also influence your target-setting process.

5. Establish a Climate Transition Plan

It is not enough to simply have a goal; organizations need to have a clear, actionable plan to help them achieve these aspirations. Whether it is through the purchase of renewable energy, installation of more efficient equipment, or innovations that are yet to be seen, these actions can require significant financial investments. CDP rewards organizations that disclose climate transition plans and increase their use of renewable energies.

Our Advice: Plan a clear pathway to actively reduce your carbon footprint. It sends a strong signal to your stakeholders that you are committed to achieving the goal, unlocking potential access to finances, enhancing your brand reputation, and fostering innovation. Transition plans also represent an essential scoring criteria and are an important component of regulations such as the EU’s CSRD.
