Introduction to EnviroTower Technology V2 - Brochure

Commercial buildings account for 40% of national energy consumption in the United States and 35% of carbon emissions in North America. 1 There is an overall growing pressure and urgency to transform commercial building operations that consume large amounts of energy and water, and that use substances potentially harmful to the environment and to human health. Cooling systems, in particular, consume enormous amounts of energy and water resources in commercial buildings – up to 30% of a commercial building’s overall energy budget and 50% of the water used. As a result, cooling system efficiency is emerging as the prime area for buildings to improve overall energy and water efficiency and reduce a facility’s carbon footprint. Commercial building owners and managers are under significant pressure to reduce operating costs associated with running cooling tower systems. In addition, portfolio managers are increasingly charged with improving the energy efficiency and overall sustainability of their building operations.
