When we founded Energy Concepts in October 1999 we did it with the recognition that the old model of providing professional engineering services to our clients and the community was considerably outdated and inadequate. Engineers had to be more innovative, better leaders and much more active in shaping the future and application of technology. Our relationships with our clients had to be more candid, interactive and bound by trust and understanding.
The technologies we bring to our clients directly address the pressing needs of our times: Energy shortages and energy independence, the environment, economic need, and the ability to benefit properly from new technology.
More than ever, our work is guided by the principle that alternative energy design and HVAC design naturally go together. Examples include health care and school projects that are designed to be both of superior function and energy efficient.
A prime example is our design of the total MEP system for a 37 story residential high rise in downtown Brooklyn NY. A CHP plant serving the facility was integrated with building HVAC systems that take the most advantage of what the CHP plant does. Thus, we have combined new CHP energy technology with traditional building design for a great total solution for our client.
Since health care facilities are energy intensive and require strong designer- owner relationships our health care design team has enjoyed great success in all regions and markets. Our design services include all types of critical systems for hospitals and nursing homes as well as energy conservation and on-site power.
We now have over 24 employees working in offices in Rochester, NY, Brooklyn NY and Fort Myers Florida. To date there are over 60 CHP plants and numerous specialized energy applications such as the Medical Arts Building Geo-thermal system in operation: All 24-7, automated, and performing as required.
We see a tremendous future for the technologies and techniques championed by Energy Concepts. We get great satisfaction from the obvious excitement and opportunities our clients have with their systems. They are our marketing department. They are our friends and comrades in a common mission. For all of those reading this who are new to Energy Concepts we hope to make your future more profitable and enjoyable as well.
