Business Wire
Atlantic Energy Solutions, Inc. (OTC:AESO) is looking forward to
its role with the stimulus bill, which is also known as the
Economic Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 as it contains a
significant amount of money being allocated for increased energy
efficiency and green technologies.
According to Tim Brock, CEO for Atlantic Energy Solutions, �As a
company, we�ve worked hard during the past ten years to deliver on
the green technology objectives established by our school district,
local municipality, community colleges, and nursing home facility
customers to provide exactly the kind of energy efficiencies and
green technologies being presented in the stimulus bill. As a
proponent for these services and the jobs they can create in any
given community, we are working closely with national advocacy
groups such as the National Association of Energy Services
Companies (www.naesco.org) which includes energy firms such as
Constellation Energy Group (CEG), Honeywell International (HON),
and Johnson Controls (JCI). We have also teamed with Impact NJ, a
NJ based strategic lobbying firm, so that we can engage on the
opportunities that the stimulus bill represents in complimenting
the objectives of our customers.�
The stimulus bill funds for energy efficiency will primarily
flow through the US Department of Energy (www.energy.gov), to
state, and then to local governments to implement the programs. The
amounts listed below represent some of the proposed expenditures
over the next two-year period:
- $1 billion for loans and grants
to institutions for energy efficiency audits and projects to
support energy audits in each state each year.
- $500 million for industrial CHP
and waste heat recovery � a new area.
- $6.2 billion for Weatherization
Assistance Programs � up from $350 million.
- $3.5 billion for Energy
Efficiency and Conservation Block Grants � another new
program.
- $3.4 billion for the State
Energy Programs administered by state energy offices � up from
about $50 million.
- $20 billion to educational
facilities ($14 billion for K-12 schools and $6 billion for higher
education) for renovations, energy efficiency and renewables.
�Atlantic Energy has been very active in several coalitions that
have advocated for these programs through the years. Our vast
experience working with municipalities gives us a leg up over many
of our competitors and positions us to take maximum advantage of
the new funding that may soon be flowing into energy efficiency and
green technology. As we continue to work with school and government
officials in this area, we look forward to providing these benefits
to our customers,� said Atlantic Energy CEO, Tim Brock.
