Connecticut-based Enviro Power, Inc.’s SmartWatt Boiler is an energy saving, emission reducing, drop-in replacement for the hot water portion of conventional heating systems, the first and only boiler designed to convert heat that would otherwise be lost in traditional boilers into useful electricity.

As more and more cities and states seek to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, it’s clear that regulatory activity is clearly driving the push to electrification and decarbonization.

Morris had me on the phone. It was 1974 and he was calling from Brooklyn, New York. I had a waxed handlebar mustache that year, and my workmates at the manufacturers’ rep were calling me Rollie Fingers because he was pitching for the Oakland Athletics in the World Series.

The report recognizes the significant impact of buildings on the environment and the need for a coordinated set of solutions to support the achievement of energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction goals set by governments.

The seven-year contract for Midea calls for the development and delivery of 20,000 cold climate packaged window heat pump units – devices that support the city’s move away from natural gas and towards more efficient energy sources.

The commercial water heating market has options for building owners and facility managers when it comes to selecting equipment for their facilities — tank or tankless, gas models or electric — even heat pump water heaters are seeing growth in this space. So which is the most popular? Well, it all depends on who you ask.
