US States Moving Forward on Energy Efficiency Legislation

Posted in Green by Rick on 04/08 at 09:46 PM

I was surprised to see that nearly half of the States in the Union have legislative items in the works relating to energy efficiency.  This website gives us, in condensed format, a summary of the ongoing state projects.  Note that most of the projects deal with updating current building code from and energy savings perspective.  While each State listed may not be working on projects dealing with commercial refrigeration, you can be sure that discussions are in works at some level.

An excellent website that gives a State by State summary of utility incentives is www.dsireusa.com . 

Energy savings strategies are essential in business planning at all levels.  Commercial Refrigeration, especially in the Foodservice category has tremendous upside potential in energy savings approaches.  Microprocessor based control systems on refrigeration equipment from Heatcraft and high performance polyurethane foam insulation systems from BASF are among the highest energy savings protocols in this category.
