The next meeting of the Southwest PA Industry E2P2 Roundtable will be held at Penn State McKeesport on June 9 from 7:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. Participation is free, but will be limited to the first 30 participants who register.

This will be a unique opportunity to learn techniques and strategies for reducing energy costs from expert consultants who specialize in compressed air system analysis. Case studies, including results of a recent assessment for PreCoat Metals in McKeesport, will be used to highlight opportunities for savings common among industrial facilities.

The discussion will be very technical and geared toward those who manage compressor systems in your facility. It is suggested that participants should include plant engineers, maintenance staff or plant managers.

Topics will include: cost-effective use of compressed air systems; top 10 opportunities for reducing energy cost; the supply and demand sector; compressed air systems controls; and the PreCoat Metals case study.

The Roundtable will be held at the Penn State McKeesport campus.
