Energy Trust commercial blog offers insights and success stories


Energy Trust of Oregon’s commercial blog is a great resource for those looking to stay up to date on the latest news and market trends. Articles cover a wide range of topics including energy efficient project spotlights, expert insights, and program updates.

Check out one of our latest articles which showcases how Portland State University (PSU) worked with Energy Trust to update their HVAC controls to better regulate humidity levels in the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art. The new, improved controls helped PSU protect the museum’s artwork without running the system for the whole campus.

Energy Trust provided cash incentives that covered over half of the project costs, which will help PSU achieve some of their larger sustainability goals, all while saving $51,000 per year in energy costs.
