  • Colorado Energy Office and Bicycle Colorado team up to launch electric bikes pilot program for low-income essential workers

    Colorado Energy Office and Bicycle Colorado team up to launch electric bikes pilot program for low-income essential workers

    DENVER – Tuesday, Oct. 13, 2020 – The Colorado Energy Office (CEO) and Bicycle Colorado today announced a newly launched pilot program to provide Class 1 electric bikes to low-income essential workers as a transportation solution in Denver. Northeast Transportation Connections, a transportation management agency in Northeast Denver, provided outreach support to community members, and the bikes were ordered, built and distributed by SloHi Bikes on Colfax Avenue. The Colorado Electric Vehicle Coalition Equity Subgroup Committee provided guidance on program design.

     The new Can Do Colorado eBike pilot program for low-income essential workers is part of the Can Do Colorado Community Challenge, a state initiative Governor Polis announced in June. Can Do Colorado provides an array of state resources to help reopen the economy safely while making progress toward important health and community vitality goals including making streets more accessible to pedestrians, cyclists, and retail and restaurant uses, supporting telecommuting, and expanding use of eBikes. The goal of the Can Do Colorado eBike pilot program is to support essential workers’ access to jobs by providing electric bikes as a safe, healthy and convenient way to take essential trips around town.

     Bicycle Colorado distributed 13 Momentum LaFree E+ eBikes to the first program participants along with equipment including helmets, lights, locks, other accessories and informational materials. Bicycle Colorado and Northeast Transportation Connections hosted 1-on-1 trainings as well as educational sessions on safe and legal city riding practices. Participants also received access to the CanBikeCO trip and emission tracking app, which was developed in partnership with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. The Can Do Colorado eBike program, launched as a pilot, sets the stage for a larger statewide version in 2021.

     “Electric bicycles are a wonderful option for commuting to work and doing errands around town. They provide affordable, low emission, healthy transportation,” said CEO Executive Director Will Toor. “The state is excited to be able to help expand access to eBikes for low-income essential workers.”

     “We are thrilled to be a part of kicking this program into high gear alongside the Colorado Energy Office,” said Jack Todd, Director of Communications and Policy at Bicycle Colorado. “eBikes are an efficient, cost-effective and fun way to travel, and have been shown to change transportation habits. With the Can Do Colorado eBike program, the state is making a statement that ‘electric vehicles’ means more than just cars, and putting that into action while supporting low-income, essential worker Coloradans.”  

     Governor Polis is acting to address Colorado’s climate crisis through a bold vision to get to 100 percent renewable energy by 2040 and meet the science-based targets for reducing GHG pollution. Under the direction of the Governor’s Climate Cabinet, several state agencies including CEO are working together to deliver on the goals of this vision by building a roadmap for climate action , which includes partnerships like this one with Bicycle Colorado. The Colorado Electric Vehicle Plan 2020 includes state actions to consider eBikes in mobility planning and to support policies providing eBike incentives for low-income individuals.

  • Kim Stackhouse-Lawson named first director of CSU’s Sustainable Livestock Systems Collaborative

    Kim Stackhouse-Lawson named first director of CSU’s Sustainable Livestock Systems Collaborative

    Colorado State University’s Sustainable Livestock Systems Collaborative has hired its first director: Kim Stackhouse-Lawson, who has been the director of sustainability for JBS USA, will take the helm of the new collaborative starting Oct. 12.

    “I am excited to build a world-renowned program that drives scientific progress, empowers students, and provides worthwhile guidance to the industry to enable us to continue to feed the world sustainably,” she said.

    The center, which was announced in December 2019, will address the challenges in bringing animal-based food – in a sustainable and healthy way – through to the next century. To do that, Stackhouse-Lawson and the team she will be building will collaborate with industry, government, and others, while also providing hands-on experiences for students and other training for thoughtful future leaders in livestock. It will operate at a university-wide level, overseen by the Office of the Provost, with leadership from the College of Agriculture and the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.

    “I had the opportunity to meet Kim Stackhouse-Lawson virtually during the search process for the new directorship, and I was tremendously impressed with her,” said CSU Provost Mary Pedersen. “She is both brilliant and incredibly articulate about her work, which is so important to the leadership of an endeavor like our new Sustainable Livestock Systems Collaborative, which relies on the strength of its engagement with partners. We are fortunate to have her joining CSU in this role.”

    College of Agriculture Dean James Pritchett shares this enthusiasm. “We are excited to welcome Kim Stackhouse-Lawson,” Pritchett said. “She has set herself apart as a clear-eyed visionary for sustainable livestock practices with her thoughtful perspective that is grounded in industry experience and academic rigor. She is a nationally recognized leader, and we look to her guidance when addressing Colorado, national, and global challenges at the intersection of livestock and sustainability.”

    From 4-H to the national stage

    Stackhouse-Lawson grew up on a small ranch in rural California and was involved in 4-H as well as Future Farmers of America. Although her parents didn’t come from a livestock background, “they thought it was important for my brother and me to raise animals,” she said. “By the time I was in 6th grade, my one-sheep 4-H project had grown to 60 ewes.”

    With that experience grew an appreciation for the land and the connection between it and the animals. As her flock was expanding, the family also moved to a larger ranch.

    “The ranch we purchased had been burned in the Fountain Fire, which is the reason our family was able to afford it. As foresters by trade, my parents knew how to replant the 420 acres, which we then grazed with my sheep for weed and brush control,” she said. “I grew up watching the intricate way nature and domestic animals depend on and interact with one another, and fell in love.”

    So she stuck with that passion. Stackhouse-Lawson received her undergraduate degree in animal science and management, her master’s in animal science, and her doctorate in animal biology, all from the University of California, Davis. After working as a postdoctoral fellow at the Beef Cattle Institute at Kansas State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, she served as the executive director of global sustainability for the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association where she led the development of the largest beef sustainability research program.

    In 2016, Stackhouse-Lawson took her most recent position, director of sustainability for JBS USA, the world’s second-largest food company. In that role, she has led the development and implementation of its sustainability program and served as the chair of U.S. Roundtable for Sustainable Beef, among other accomplishments.

    Over the years working at this dynamic intersection, Stackhouse-Lawson has had the opportunity to learn alongside and help educate producers and others in the industry about sustainability as well as other science-backed policies related to antibiotic use, animal welfare, and technological innovations.

    Through her deep work in the industry supply chain and with relevant stakeholders, she has developed a keen understanding not just of the existing challenges, but also of ways forward.

    “I have dedicated my career to on-the-ground initiatives that I believe are making a difference in feeding the world sustainably,” Stackhouse-Lawson said. “I am excited to advance the sustainability of the livestock supply chain, including the natural resources that our food system depends on.”

    Leading change, together

    By the turn of the next century, the global population is estimated to top 12 billion people. Ensuring the world can feed this many people in a sustainable way will be essential.

    The best way to work toward that goal is together, say CSU experts.

    “This new university initiative brings together expertise from across CSU alongside outside industry partners to ensure we support sustainable livestock production practices that will be challenged by the growth in global needs and environmental change,” said Dr. Mark Stetter, dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. “Stackhouse-Lawson’s expertise in working with livestock industry and academia, and her strong leadership skills, will ensure strong connections with key stakeholders and help bring university expertise and resources to this critical new agriculture initiative.”

    The new Sustainable Livestock Systems Collaborative is just that: collaborative. In addition to being housed jointly in the Colleges of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, it will also work closely with CSU Extension to engage and share information with those in the livestock community. In creating the center, the university also collaborated with the Colorado Beef Council, Colorado Cattlemen’s Association, Colorado Farm Bureau, the Colorado Livestock Association, the School of Global Environmental Sustainability, and the Warner College of Natural Resources.

    Stackhouse-Lawson was chosen from a wide national search for the center’s first director. She will be involved in helping to grow the center, leading up to a dozen new faculty members dedicated to research in this and related areas, including diagnostics, epidemiology, infectious disease, livestock production, meat science, and nutrition.

    “Food is so important to us as a society,” Stackhouse-Lawson said. “It not only nourishes us but also defines elements of cultures and brings families and friends together. I’m so proud to work to provide food in a sustainable way to people across the globe.”

  • Strong returning student numbers help offset fall enrollment declines across the CSU System

    Strong returning student numbers help offset fall enrollment declines across the CSU System

    Denver, Colorado — While the COVID-19 pandemic impacted new student enrollment across the CSU System this fall, declines in the number of new freshmen were partially offset by strong returning student enrollment, including a record-setting 5 percentage point increase in the number of students persisting from their freshman to sophomore years at CSU Pueblo.

    Remarkably during a pandemic year, CSU Pueblo increased student retention more than at any time in the last decade, and CSU in Fort Collins held steady, retaining 85.3% of its 2019 freshman class, exactly the same percentage as the previous year when COVID-19 was not a factor.

    Overall declines

    Though overall enrollment turned out better than the double-digit declines anticipated for the three CSU campuses, total numbers were still down from past years: 3.6% at the flagship Fort Collins campus (with a total headcount of 27,835) and 3.3% at the Pueblo campus (with a total headcount of 3,716). The fully online CSU Global operates on a trimester system, different from the two physical campuses, so its total numbers for the term are not yet available.

    The campuses reported their enrollment figures today at the October meeting of the CSU System Board of Governors.

    “We’re proud of how hard our universities have worked to support students and employees in returning to campus this fall, despite the enormous challenges of reopening during a pandemic,” CSU System Chancellor Tony Frank said. “These numbers reflect that extraordinary effort as well as what we’ve heard anecdotally: A majority of our students want to be back and continuing their progress toward a degree. We want to support that as much as we possibly can.”

    Frank also noted the CSU Pueblo retention increases likely reflect some of the System’s recent investments in student services and support in conjunction with the campus’s Vision 2028 strategic plan, led by CSU Pueblo President Timothy Mottet.

    Online enrollment increases

    Predictably, given international travel restrictions, both the Pueblo and Fort Collins campuses saw declines in new international students. Meanwhile, online enrollment saw a sharp increase, as students who chose not to study on campus this fall sought other ways to continue their degree progress:

    • Preliminary numbers from CSU Global’s fall trimester reflect a nearly sixfold increase in international enrollment in their online programs: from 73 students to 433. (This includes both US citizens living abroad and international students.)
    • CSU Pueblo’s online-only enrollment is up 67% over last year.
    • CSU Online at the Fort Collins campus saw a 59% increase in new undergraduate enrollment.

    Impact on low-income students

    The CSU System’s Chief Academic Officer Rick Miranda noted a concern felt across the System for how the pandemic is impacting the most vulnerable students, particularly low-income and first-generation students.

    “CSU is known for its strong commitment — across all our campuses — to supporting students who are the first in their families to go to college, and we’re concerned to see that first-generation student enrollment at our Fort Collins campus is down this year by nearly twice that of non-first-generation students,” Miranda said. “The impact of the pandemic recession is taking a toll on these students and their families, and we need to continue to focus on how we can support these students in pursuing their academic goals.”

    Miranda noted that there is some good news in that CSU’s four-year graduation rate is now at a record high, meaning that students are graduating faster, which saves on tuition costs, reduces student debt loads, and enables them to enter the employment market more quickly.

    CSU Fort Collins

    CSU Fort Collins welcomed 23,590 undergraduates this fall, a 4.1% decline from last year with most of that decrease in numbers of new freshmen. Graduate student numbers were down slightly (0.7%), with 3,648 graduate students enrolled this fall. The campus saw increases in the number of Native American and Hispanic/Latinx students enrolled, but declines among Black, Asian, and non-minority students. Transfer student enrollment dropped by 20.3%. The ratio of in-state to out-of-state students held constant at 65% in-state to 34% out-of-state.

    CSU Pueblo

    CSU Pueblo welcomed 3,378 undergraduates this fall, a 5% decline from last year that was offset somewhat by a 13% increase in graduate students (338 graduate students enrolled this fall). Re-enrollment of continuing students at CSU Pueblo was up at every undergraduate level (freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors) for the first time in at least five years. Pueblo also saw a slight increase in numbers of diverse students enrolling. The retention rate for students who entered as transfer students also hit an all-time high (73%) and the highest year-to-year gain ever for the Pueblo campus (9 percentage points over the previous year).

    CSU Global

    CSU Global only has data available for the first three terms of its fall trimester but experienced a 4.5% increase from last fall through those terms. The University is anticipating an overall increase in non-degree-seeking students and new undergraduates. Preliminary numbers also show a slight increase in number of first-generation and underrepresented minority students.

    Chancellor Frank credited strong leadership across the CSU System — President Mottet at Pueblo, President Joyce McConnell in Fort Collins, and President Pamela Toney at CSU Global for their support of students in the face of the pandemic.

    “All the CSU campuses have worked tirelessly to be back in operation this fall as safely as possible, continuing to focus on providing an excellent education to our students even while navigating budget reductions and unprecedented health and safety concerns,” Frank said. “That would not have been possible without the strong, collaborative leadership on all our campuses and a commitment to putting the health, education, and well-being of students, faculty, and staff at the forefront.”

  • CSU acquires public hydrogen fuel station, a first for the state of Colorado

    CSU acquires public hydrogen fuel station, a first for the state of Colorado

    Colorado State University’s Energy Institute has acquired Colorado’s first public hydrogen fuel station to eventually enable the deployment of Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs) and support a wide variety of research projects focused on hydrogen.

    The CSU station will be one of the few electrolyzer stations in the U.S. that will generate hydrogen on-site by splitting water molecules using electricity.

    A significant milestone for Colorado

    The acquisition of the station marks a significant milestone for Colorado as the transportation industry shifts away from fossil fuels to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide. Hydrogen can be used in both fuel cells and engines to power vehicles of any size including cars and heavy-duty trucks, as well as large stationary power systems.

    The station will be operated and maintained by the CSU Energy Institute at the Powerhouse Energy Campus on North College Avenue in Fort Collins. It will be used to teach and train students in hydrogen technology and will allow researchers to gather cost and operational data that can inform future station deployment in Colorado by commercial operators and by the non-profit Colorado Hydrogen Network.

    “The Powerhouse hydrogen station represents a major advancement in our goal to promote the environmental and economic benefits of hydrogen and fuel cell technology for both transportation and large-scale power systems,” said Bryan Willson, executive director of the Energy Institute and co-founder of the Colorado Hydrogen Network.

    “We will be able to use the station to conduct research on hydrogen fuel cell technology and hydrogen combustion, provide hands-on learning opportunities for students, and serve as a resource for the state of Colorado and the general public in research, testing and deployment of hydrogen-fueled vehicle and hydrogen energy systems,” he said.

    Fast fueling, long cold-weather range and high cargo capacity

    Unlike more common battery EVs on the market, Fuel Cell Electrical Vehicles provide fast fueling, long cold-weather range and high cargo capacity. The declining costs of renewable electricity from wind and solar has only recently allowed FCEVs to compete with traditional petroleum vehicles.

    The station that CSU acquired was operating in Washington, D.C., and scheduled to be decommissioned.  The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden, Colorado, was responsible for directing the decommissioning and alerted the Colorado Hydrogen Network of the station’s availability. CHN prepared a proposal to Nel Hydrogen, the current owner, requesting that the station be donated to the CSU Energy Institute.

    According to the U.S. Department of Energy’s Alternative Fuels Data Center, there are currently 44 hydrogen fueling stations in the country. Only a few of those stations are currently generating hydrogen with on-site electricity, which includes a non-public, research-focused station at NREL. CSU’s hydrogen station will initially operate in a semi-public mode with limited hours or by appointment.
