Energy Assessments
This program is supported by the Institute for Energy Studies at WWU.
A Confidentiality Agreement is signed by the company and the EAP, and the analysis report contains no proprietary or identifying information.
The team visits a facility for one day to examine the manufacturing processes and take measurements. These visits are non-intrusive to plant operations.
Assessments do not monitor regulatory compliance. Advice is offered to save energy, reduce waste, and increase productivity.
The facility has no obligation to act on recommendations; however, the EAP succeeds by saving you energy and money.
Implementation is a simple way to make your business more cost-efficient and profitable.
