- Motors
Planning
Once we have assessed your company's energy management situation, we will help map a plan that includes specific steps you can take to greatly reduce energy consumption. ETAC develops these plans by determining the feasibility of various actions. We will analyze the practicality of installing distributed generation such as micro and gas turbines, diesel and natural gas reciprocating engine generators and fuel cells. Using computer modeling, ETAC can help predict the performance of various renewable energy systems for your company. ETAC can also identify and quantify opportunity fuel sources, such as residual, reclaimed and reprocessed non-hazardous wastes from other industries.
Training
Becoming an energy-efficient and environmentally sustainable operation requires technical and management-level training. ETAC has designed a training program to establish and maintain your corporate energy management program. We will train your employees in energy and waste management. We can also train you to conduct your own energy assessments in the future so that your company will become self-sufficient in energy management. Training options include distance learning and one-day conferences.
