    Space Cooling - Dehumidification • New smaller sizes • More focus on energy recovery www.novelaire.com YourEnergySavings.com

  12. Slide 12: Space Cooling - Dehumidification

    Space Cooling - Dehumidification • Reactivation heat source can be gas, electric, or waste heat • Energy recovery units may not require reactivation air heat source in all modes of operation YourEnergySavings.com

  13. Slide 13: Ventilation – CO2 Demand Control

    Ventilation – CO2 Demand Control • Ventilation air is expensive – both heating and cooling • Poor indoor air quality can be MORE expensive • CO2 Demand Control assures the right amount of fresh air under all occupancy conditions YourEnergySavings.com

  14. Slide 14: Waste Heat Recovery

    Waste Heat Recovery • Air, water, or product/process • Higher the temperature and the longer the run hours the better the economics • Must have a concurrent need for cold incoming supply at the same time in relative amounts as the hot exiting supply YourEnergySavings.com

  15. Slide 15: Waste Heat Recovery – Air to Air

    Waste Heat Recovery – Air to Air • Clean waste air stream such as from central ventilation system • Works in heating and cooling modes; with and without humidity recovery www.semcoinc.com YourEnergySavings.com

  16. Slide 16: Waste Heat Recovery – Air to Air

    Waste Heat Recovery – Air to Air • Air to Air Heat Recovery with unique design for high-efficiency especially in cold weather www.tempeffnorthamerica.com • Michigan representation: www.thermalnetics.com YourEnergySavings.com

  17. Slide 17: Waste Heat Recovery – Electric Generation

    Waste Heat Recovery – Electric Generation • Waste water stream of about 200 gpm up to 200F (or clean air stream equivalent with additional heat exchanger) • Produce up to 50 kWh (depends on waste stream flow) www.prorenewables.com (Michigan Representation) www.electratherm.com (Manufacturer) YourEne

    Add Natural Gas to EXISTING Diesel Standby Gensets • Burn up to 70% natural gas in diesel gensets • Greatly increase run time with on-site fuel storage • Reduce running cost • Improve emissions • Fast payback with normal run time www.gti-altronicinc.com YourEnergySavings.com

  29. Slide 29: Natural Gas Vehicles = NGV Compressed Natural Gas = CNG

    Natural Gas Vehicles = NGV Compressed Natural Gas = CNG • Benefits of NGV’s: • Economics • Environmental • Energy Security • Target vehicles: • Pick-ups, • Vans, • Busses / Shuttles, • Heavy duty trucks with predictable routes or areas • Target locations – Existing public “fast-fill” fueling station

  30. Slide 30: What is the Customer Value Proposition?

    What is the Customer Value Proposition? NGVs produce approximately 25%-30% less CO2 as compared to their gasoline / diesel Environmental counterparts. 70-90% reduction in all other vehicle emissions. 86% of the natural gas consumed in the U.S. is domestically produced – 98% if you include Energy Sec

  31. Slide 31: Current CNG Price

    Current CNG Price $1.95 Current Price per Gasoline Gallon Equivalent For more info from DTE Energy: bacyinskir@dteenergy.com woloszczukg@dteenergy.com www.ngvamerica.org YourEnergySavings.com
