Fromagerie des Basques,
Trois-Pistoles, QC, Canada, is
a cheese factory owned by Yves
Pettigrew. For nearly 20 years,
the boiler resided in the middle
of the production room and the
pasteurizer required so much
power that all other power consumers were cut off while it was
running. The cold room was
supplied by more than 10 small
refrigeration compressors.
To remediate these problems, a system was designed
to produce biogas from whey
and use the heat generated
for production. A warehouse
was transformed into a proper
mechanical room. And, one
chiller was installed to replace
the compressors.
The Iowa Utilities Board and Office of Consumer
Advocate building in Des Moines, Iowa, (top photo)
is home to two agencies that govern state utilities.
It is demonstrating its stewardship by building on
a former landfill, and using solar panels, daylightharvesting sunscreens and a geothermal system.
The University of Calgary's Environment and
Experiential Learning Project in Calgary, AB,
Canada, (center photo) is a new LEED Platinum
facility that generates chilled water at night to use
for the next day, uses cascaded heating and cooling
loops to save pumping energy, and uses earth tubes
to precondition air.
The King County Housing Authority Central Office
Annex in Tukwila, Wash., (bottom photo) renovated
a former big box retail store into a typical modern
office. The building uses energy recovery ventilation with EC motors and a variable capacity heat
pump system with 50 zones. Another feature is low
lighting power design.
