Industrial Assessment Center program

Sponsor: US Dept. of Energy (DOE)

Start Date: 9/01/16

End Date: 8/31/19

Abstract

The NCSU Industrial Assessment Center provides energy conservation assessments primarily for manufacturers in NC, SC, and VA. Students and faculty visit participating plants for one day. Students collect pertinent data and then perform engineering analyses on potential energy conservation and cost savings measures. A written report communicates the findings to facility. The program is overseen by engineering faculty and provides training to the next generation of energy engineers.
