3 Steps for a Successful Boiler Replacement Project
Commercial and industrial boilers are not replaced often (once every 15-50 years, depending on the size of the boiler).

No two efficiency projects are ever the same. Differences between industries and facility space uses, between client priorities and individual buildings, all require custom engineering for effective efficiency projects.
Carbon is all around us. Planes, trains and automobiles produce carbon emissions, and our own energy expenditures add to the growing need for carbon offsetting.
Thirty years ago, before utilities had efficiency incentive programs, I was developing efficiency solutions for a hospital along the Connecticut coast. The hospital was interested in cost effectively reducing operational costs and improving lighting.
Maybe you already know what the biggest energy wasters are in your supermarket. Rooftop units, lighting and outdated refrigeration systems all come to mind. If you don’t, your utility bill can help you determine where you can improve your energy usage.
It's that time of year again – October, the month of changing leaves, pumpkins and pumpkin spice, witches and ghouls and, of course, Energy Efficiency Day!
When you invest in an energy efficiency project, what are you putting your money into? Are you looking for a quick fix for an issue, or a long-lasting solution? Do you want a short-term band-aid?
Breaking down energy use by industry can also help identify the potential for energy efficiency in that sector as well. Commercial/industrial companies can figure out where to concentrate time and resources on efficiency tactics based on building type.
