When your facility wastes energy, you're impacting more than just the environment; you're also hurting your profit, productivity, and people.
Unlock and maximize your manufacturing or cold storage facility's profit with an in-depth assessment through the Department of Energy's Industrial Training & Assessment Center (ITAC) Program.
After the assessment, small and medium-sized manufacturing firms and cold storage facilities are eligible for grants up to $300,000 at 50% cost share. These grants are to offset the costs of implementing upgrades found in your assessment. Grant applications are accepted on a rolling basis and reviewed quarterly. As a provider of ITAC-equivalent assessments, Michaels Energy can complete energy audits and provide all the supporting materials needed for your grant application.
The DOE has awarded more than $15M since 2021! Don't miss your opportunity.
In this example, the client is eligible to apply for an implementation grant of $65,000.
Why do I need an energy assessment?
Grant applications will only be accepted if the ITAC-equivalent assessment is performed. The assessment looks at the equipment and operations within your facility to find ways to save and optimize; ultimately helping your bottom line. Once we've completed the evaluation, we'll provide you with a full report of the recommendations for improvement. This includes equipment costs, annual energy savings, annual non-energy savings, and payback periods. The results of the assessment are used to support your Implementation Grant application.
Minimizing waste is not just about reducing costs but building a sustainable future. Our team works closely with your organization to implement targeted energy efficiency solutions, significantly reducing your environmental footprint while maximizing your bottom line.
