Mr. Lawrence Boyd, Director of Core
Programs welcomes participants in the Compressed Air Challenge
Course held at Parker Hannifin’s Headquarters in Mayfield
Heights, Ohio, in May.
CAC Challenge Instructor Chris
Beals of Air System Management, Inc. makes a point on
Calculating Energy Costs in Compressed Air Systems
Participants in the training session listen intently to the
information being presented. Energy Industries of Ohio,
under contract to the Ohio Energy Office and the Industrial
Technology Program of the US Department of Energy has been
working with the DOE’s Industries of the Future Program and
Industrial Energy Efficiency efforts over the past seven years.
Part of this effort involves hosting DOE’s BestPractices
training sessions across the State of Ohio. Most recently
sessions were conducted on the “Compressed Air Challenge”
(pictured on the left), in cooperation with B.W. Rogers Company
and the Parker Hannifin Corporation. This session was conducted
at Parker’s World Headquarters in Mayfield Heights, Ohio in
early May and had over 35 participants.
Motor Systems was the subject of the training conducted for
Owens Corning at their Training Facility in Granville, Ohio.
Twenty Owens Corning engineers and managers from across the
country participated in this program conducted by DOE Certified
Instructor Ron Wroblewski.
Later in the year, EIO hosted a three-day seminar for PHAST
Qualified Specialists at Case Western Reserve University. This
program is a step beyond the one day training session and looks
to qualify DOE certified “Specialists” who then can then employ
DOE’s “Process Heating Assessment and Survey Tool” across the
nation in identifying energy efficiency opportunities at
companies using heated equipment.
