Industrial

Industrial facilities represent unique opportunities to bundle common energy conservation measures such as lighting controls and HVAC system upgrades with more ambitious measures involving renewable energy and cogeneration. Since many industrial sites have excess land along with substantial rooftop space, alternative energy installations are much more viable than at a typical retrofit site. The Clark team has a particular focus on alternative energy and will assess your facility for the feasibility of both standard ECMs as well as onsite distributed generation.

The Environmental Protection Agency classifies ten categories of industrial activities*:

• Category 1: Facilities subject to federal effluent stormwater discharge standards
• Category 2: Heavy manufacturing such as paper mills, steel mills, and oil refineries
• Category 3: Coal and mineral mining, oil and gas exploration and processing
• Category 4: Hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facilities
• Category 5: Landfills, land application sites, and open dumps with industrial wastes
• Category 6: Metal scrapyards, salvage yards, automobile junkyards and battery reclaimers
• Category 7: Steam electric power generating plants
• Category 8: Transportation facilities that have vehicle maintenance or equipment cleaning
• Category 9: Domestic sewage treatment facilities
• Category 10: Light manufacturing such as food processing, storage and warehousing, and electrical equipment manufacturing

Clark Energy Group can work with facilities in all ten categories, and our team has experience in engineering and construction across a wide range of industrial facilities from warehouses to power plants.
