in the various energy news magazines,
blogs, newsletters, etc. Positive district
energy press needs to be in front of policy
makers, state and local agencies, politicians and energy consumers. Through a
concerted effort of positive news pieces,
we can hope that people will recognize
the value of district energy and support
its continued use and development. It is
up to all of us to raise our hands and be
recognized for the good our industry has
done and can do in the future.
IDEA industry survey underway.
Every system counts…
If we can count on every system.
