Perhaps
it's true that what you don't know won't kill you. But it might
cost you – especially when it comes to energy usage. This
month, we offer a trio of stories aimed at putting you in the know.
First, check out what a difference it made for one manufacturer
when they assessed
their compressed air system – they expanded production and reduced
total cost at the same time. Second, get your hands on the tools
you need to measure, analyse, and make a business case, through
our Metering
and Instrumentation Lending Library. Finally, details on upcoming
workshops – shortcuts to knowledge, efficiency, and savings.
And don't forget to fill
out our reader survey – you could win a $100 Home Hardware
Gift Certificate. |

(a lot) more for less
"We went to BC Hydro and said, 'We need a lot more
air'", says Brad Baigent, New Westminster plant manager
for wood products manufacturer Stella-Jones, Inc.
Turned out they actually needed a lot less. Learn how
they used Power Smart's compressed
air program to increase production while cutting costs.

What
gets measured...
...they say, is what gets managed. But nothing gets measured
without the right equipment. Not sure where you're losing energy?

tools? Get to know our Metering
and Instrumentation Lending Library – free loans
of meters and other tools for analysis – and put some
power in your hands.
