Free energy usage assessments available to publicly-owned wastewater treatment plants


“The cost of wastewater treatment can be a significant burden for municipalities, especially when the infrastructure is aged or inappropriately sized for the community it serves,” says Illinois EPA Director Alec Messina. “This partnership will help municipalities identify ways to improve their systems and realize cost savings for their communities.”

The final assessment reports will break down recommendations for energy efficiency improvements at each facility. This will include information such as upfront costs for equipment upgrades or retrofits, estimated time it will take for the upgrade costs to pay-off in energy savings, and the resulting energy and monetary savings that could result from upgrades and retrofits. Similar assessments would ordinarily cost municipalities between $6,000 and $12,000. Click here for more information, or to apply.
