Description The purpose of this program is to determine if there are any opportunities in
customers’ industrial manufacturing processes that could help reduce the
amount of natural gas used at their facilities, as well as to look for opportunities
for customer projects to be pilot projects for each industrial sector. The
Companies’ financial support will help customers hire an engineering
firm/contractor to conduct an energy efficiency audit at their facilities/plants,
which will investigate specific natural gas savings opportunities. Audits will
include an inventory of the equipment and related infrastructure including steam
distribution networks. The current operating efficiencies, and the age and
condition of the equipment will be determined. Energy audits will also include
drawings, process diagrams, current energy use, and operating and
