Industrial Energy Efficiency: Linking State Partnerships with Universities Chad Nelson Director, National Environmental Technology Institute Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy Massachusetts State Partnership University of Massachusetts Amherst 310 Hicks Way, Blaisdell House Amherst, MA 01003-9280 Phone: (413) 545-5526 Fax: (413) 545-2304 cnelson@tei.umass.edu

2. Partner with industry and other stakeholders to Improve process yield / conserve resources Improve competitiveness Increase use of renewable energy Reduce reliance on foreign oil Reduce environmental impacts Improve quality of life Office of Industrial Technologies Improve the energy efficiency of U.S. industry through coordinated research and development, validation, and dissemination of innovative technologies and practices. MISSION

3. Delivering Technology Solutions

4. A Full Range of Support Technology for Today Technical Assistance Technology for the Future Plant Audits Inventions Basic R&D Analytical Tools Applied R&D Grant Programs Development Technical Information Demonstration Training Workshops Commercialization Future

5. Technology Delivery • Technical Assistance • Plant-wide Assessments • Industrial Assessment Centers • Clearinghouse • Software Tools • Training • Information (Case Studies, Tip Sheets, etc.)

6. Industrial Assessment Centers (IACs) Teams of engineering faculty and students from 26 university-based IACs around the country conduct no-cost, on-site industrial assessments at eligible facilities. ~240 students in training each year Average 7-year savings per assessment: $74,000

7. Industrial Assessment Centers Qualification Criteria • Annual sales under $100 million • 500 or less employees at plant • No designated energy manager • Energy bill less than $2 M/yr and greater than $100K/yr • Plant located 150 miles or less from IAC school

8. Energy Sustainability Programs for UMass Amherst • Steam Trap Program Undergraduate Research • Partnership with Physical Plant • Energy Efficiency Steam loss improved, condensate return was increased as a result of the program. Annual cost savings of approximately 10% were achieved. • Building Commissioning at UMass, Amherst Graduate Research • Partnership with Physical Plant • Energy Efficiency If all buildings on campus were continuously commissioned, CEERE researchers estimate that Amherst campus could achieve savings of approximately $100 million in utility bills over the next 20 years. • Computer Model Development for New UMass, Amherst Power Plant Graduate Research • Partnership with Physical Plant • Combined Heat and Power (Co-Generation) • Computer Simulation of the UMass, Amherst Low Pressure Steam Distribution System Energy Efficiency • Model Development • Performance Monitoring • Partnership with Physical Plant
