Moving beyond broken bridges, leaky water mains, and crumbling foundations, and polluted skies, what are you doing to build the Critical Infrastructure of tomorrow? Smith Information Services award-winning research and scenario-driven event risks underscore a need for more informed decisions.
​
In 2017, our team entered in the MIT Climate CoLab “Solve” Climate Change Solutions Challenge in conjunction with the United Nations Global Climate Change initiative. Our Waste Heat Energy Exchange project was selected as one of five finalists among a group of leading scientists from more than 147 countries to present at the United Nations in a worldwide session. We continue our work on the advancement of social engineering projects that pioneer the use of media to enhance scientific discovery.

As a subject matter expert in public sector projects, Smith Information Services LLC partnered with the Southern States Energy Board (SSEB) on the U.S. Department of Energy’s Sole Source Contract for the Privatization of the Puerto Rico Public Power Authority.
Smith Information Services was accepted into the Research Experience in Carbon Sequestration (RECS) Program of The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy (FE). The intensive science and field-based program is designed for graduate students and professionals interested in learning more about carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS).
​
CCUS is a combination of technologies for capturing, compressing, transporting, using, and permanently storing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from large, stationary fossil energy facilities.

Our award-winning research has focused on green projects for almost thirty years. We have worked on deink pulp mills, slug pelletization plants by Dano Technologies, Robbins Resource Recovery, Bagasse Bonds, synthetic gas biofuel projects in Colorado and Washington, and wood pellets to harvest the wood basket in Louisiana and Texas.
