Topic: JUST DO IT! How to Get Started with an Energy Efficiency Survey by ASHRAE Distinguished Lecturer Hank Jackson

Date: February 10, 2010
Time: 12:00 Noon Meeting - 1:30 PM
Location: Ramada Inn, 1520 Blue Ridge Rd. Raleigh

Cost: $25.00 for Lunch

Introduction: Tony Lewis will provide the Triangle Chapter with an update on Progress Energy's Energy Efficiency for Business Program.  Get up to speed on the program at: http://progressenergy.com/custservice/carbusiness/efficiency/programs/eebiz/details.asp.

Main Presentation: This session is designed to help building owners, operators, and engineers perform on-site energy efficiency surveys with more confidence and accuracy.  Specifically, this course is directed toward the on-site inspection and critical assessment of heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems; refrigeration systems; lighting systems; compressed air; and motor applications typically found in buildings and process facilities. Attendees will receive a qualitative understanding of design and operation considerations for common systems and will learn site survey techniques to help them gather the information needed to evaluate the costs and benefits of a variety of energy-efficiency improvements.

Speaker: ASHRAE Distinguished Lecturer, Hank Jackson, owner and principal of ETech Solutions, has provided technical training and consulting services in the energy efficiency marketplace since 1979.  He holds a Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering (1974) and a Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering (1978), both from the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia.  Originally registered in Georgia, Mr. Jacksons currently practices in North Carolina. Mr. Jackson served as director of the Georgia Industrial Energy Extension Service program at the Georgia Institute of Technology prior to entering a private consulting practice.  During a five year hiatus from consulting (1999 – 2005), he was department chair of Mechanical Engineering Technology at Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College in Asheville, North Carolina.
