Academic Partnerships The EEC is a faculty-supervised, student-led research group with a long history of DOE ITAC involvement and grant-funded projects across industrial, agricultural, and commercial sectors. This creates opportunities to collaborate on funded energy-efficiency pilots, audits, and technology validation, leveraging OSU resources and potential co-funding.

Sector Focus Focused on industrial facilities, agriculture, and commercial sectors in Oregon, with a small, agile team capable of delivering pilots and scalable retrofits. Offer turnkey energy audits, efficiency upgrades, and training programs tailored to mid-market facilities, supported by the OSU network for credibility.

Data Capabilities The tech stack includes database platforms and Python-based analytics, enabling data-driven energy optimization. Opportunity to provide energy management dashboards, data integration services, IoT sensor packages, and predictive maintenance solutions in joint pilot programs.

Grant Opportunities History of operating under grants and energy-efficiency programs suggests readiness to partner on DOE and state-funded initiatives. We can co-develop grant-aligned solutions, assist with procurement, and demonstrate ROI through pilot results.

Regional Reach Oregon-based location and university affiliation provide local access to mid-market manufacturers and agribusiness, making them an ideal partner for local pilots and scalable expansion across the Pacific Northwest, leveraging student talent for cost-effective delivery.
