Eugene gets a little more green with wastewater treatment improvements including modifying fan sensors and adding a more efficient filtering system for methane gas.
The EEC went big in Tacoma with sludge heat exchangers, yard water pump system, and odor control fan system. Recommended cost savings totaled over 1.18 million dollars with an overall payback period of under a year.
Students got creative at the Oregon Convention Center writing five opportunities for savings. With major energy users in air conditioning and heating, the report projects cost savings of over $120,000 annually.
The EEC identified $116,000 in annual cost savings across 7 projects. These projects can reduce electrical energy consumption by over 882,000 kWh annually and wastewater by over 11 million gallons annually.
On average, the EEC recommends $144,000 in cost savings per assessment with roughly half of the recommended savings being implemented. Learn how to apply our recommendations to get the most out of our assessments!
Not only has Oregon State University's EEC has saved over 700 facilities over 225 million dollars, but has trained over 100 students for future energy industry roles.
