HVAC
Excellence Conference to Cover Emerging Technologies.
Manufacturers in the HVACR industry are developing new
equipment to meet the demands created by legislation and
utility rebate programs.
With new technologies come new challenges. It is
essential that the people training our current and
future workforce know what technological changes are on
the horizon to keep their programs current and relevant.
HVAC Excellence is pleased to announce that Richard
Benkowski a Sales Engineer for Carrier products and
trainer for the United Association will conduct a train
the trainer session covering emerging technologies at
the HVAC Excellence National HVACR Educators and
Trainers Conference.
Mr. Benkowski will cover a number of topics including
"combined heat and power "(CHP) systems. These systems
offer an efficient approach to generating electric power
and useful thermal energy from a single fuel source.
Instead of purchasing electricity from the distribution
grid and burning fuel in an on-site furnace or boiler to
produce thermal energy, a CHP can provide both energy
services in one very efficient step.
The Federal government wants to increase CHP capacity in
the US by 2020. To accomplish this they are offering
incentives of nearly $80 billion. With incentives this
high, HVACR educators and trainers will need to
incorporate this technology into their programs to meet
the needs of the energy performance contractor. .
