Every building has unique energy requirements based on its design, use, location, orientation and surrounding environment. The energy solution that works best for a downtown, eight-square block convention center complex with varied patterns of energy use is vastly different from what may be required for a collection of smaller structures in a rural location that has a consistent, daily pattern of energy consumption. We have designed, installed and continue to maintain energy systems for clients with a wide range of energy needs. Our innovative solutions include:

Often the most economical method providing energy and energy services involves combining the needs of many structures in a given area and creating a single system to service all those buildings. Our steam and chilled water system in Atlantic City services many of the major hotels and casinos along the boardwalk. In North Carolina, we developed a system to cut the energy needs of the entire state office complex in Raleigh.
The design of a building (or group of buildings) and the activities that the building is designed to handle can call for an innovative approach to solving its energy demands. We analyze each building and its energy needs to come up with the most economical solution for each individual project. The solutions we create are not always the most conventional approach, but the most economical in the long run.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, Maryland faced a daunting challenge. Not only did NIH need to supply auxiliary and emergency back-up power to 75 buildings on its 300 acre campus and supply steam to over 30 laboratories, they needed to reduce their energy expenditures. We provided the answer by producing heat and power from the same process and even helped improve local air quality.
