Introduction to Sempa Power: Smart Solutions for a Smarter Grid™
Sempa Power is a Canadian company that delivers Smart Building solutions for large commercial buildings. Since 2003, we have been providing our Sempa Hybrid Heating Solution™ to building owners and delivering annual energy cost savings of 10–30%, reducing the green house gas emissions of these buildings by 20–50% and reducing the energy required to heat these buildings by 5–15%. Because our results are measurable and reportable, many of Sempa's customers have chosen to deploy the solution in additional buildings, after an initial successful installation.
Fuel Strategy for Our Energy-Hungry Planet
Energy is sold in many different units. This is the cause of confusion, as there is no easy means of comparing costs of energy use for various fuels. A detailed examination shows some surprising results - and opportunities to reduce costs - and GHG emissions.
Just How Clean Is Your Electricity
There is a common view that any additional electricity that is purchased from a utility comes from a marginal source that is claimed to be either coal or gas fired. This may - or may not be correct. Energy that is available for sale on the grid at night is sold at a very low price, driven by the inability of many large steam powered generators to reduce output for a short period. In fact, if the night energy is not purchased, there is a high probability that the source that will shut down is not a fossil fueled plant, but a renewable power plant.
