Presented online in a series of three live two-hour time modules, this seminar is designed to guide you though each critical step of the process of planning and implementing economically and technologically sound on-site generating capacity.

You can participate in the seminar from your office, home, or anywhere you have access to the internet and a phone. You'll have opportunities to interact with your instructor and colleagues in real time during the four live teleconferencing sessions.

About the Seminar

In the wake of deregulation of the electric power market, many forward thinking companies are seriously re-evaluating how they will be obtaining their electricity in the years ahead. Cogeneration and other forms of self generation are increasingly becoming an attractive option for may businesses. This informative seminar will bring you up to date on current cogeneration and on site power technologies and examine the present regulatory picture, as well as the economic and supply security aspects of generating your own power.

You'll learn how to go about planning, designing and implementing cogeneration and on-site power projects, both to insure your own power supply, and potentially as a player in the growing distributed generation marketplace. You'll be given the technical, financial and legal expertise you need to evaluate your options and maximize the return on your investment.

The instructor will present you with a systematic approach for weighing alternatives in the design of cogeneration and on-site generation systems, as well as for evaluating the economic feasibility of action in your specific situation.

Your Realtime Program Instructor

BERNARD F. KOLANOWSKI is a mechanical engineer and private consultant in the field of cogeneration. Prior to beginning his consulting practice, he held positions with Ingersoll-Rand, Environmental Control Products, Riley Stoker Corporation, Solar Turbines and Capstone Turbine Company, and during that time acquired substantial experience with cogeneration related projects. His activities have involved both manufacturer/contractor and well as client-side consultation related to a variety of cogeneration installations. His hands-on experience in this field has given him a broad understanding of the practical aspects of applying cogeneration to a myriad of situations involving hot water, hot air, chilled water and resource recovery as the "second" energy derived from a cogeneration system.

Course Materials and Advance Preparations

The seminar fee covers registration for all three two-hour program modules, seminar workbook (downloadable PDF format), course certificate, and teleconferencing services, including domestic phone charges. (International calls will have non-tollfree access.) In addition each participant in the program will receive a complimentary copy of a comprehensive computer program ($50 value) which can be used to assess and plan a potential cogeneration project. Payment in full must be received prior to the start date of the seminar.

You will receive instructions, personal support, and a chance to test your teleconferencing connection in advance of the first session.

Enrollment in this realtime online seminar will be limited to 40 participants to ensure that each student has ample opportunity for interaction with instructors and other participants.
