Demand Response Webcast Video
On July 31, 2008, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) held a Demand Response Webcast to discuss opportunities for industrial facilities to earn a revenue stream as a demand source. The Webcast focuses on current issues driving the development of demand response across the United States including energy cost and reliability, sustainability, measurement and verification requirements, and developing a facility as a demand resource.

Super Boiler Overview Video
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Industrial Technologies Program, in partnership with the Gas Technology Institute and Cleaver-Brooks, Inc., has developed the first "Super Boiler", a unique industrial steam technology that delivers better than 94% thermal efficiency and produces fewer pollutants than conventional boiler technology.
The Super Boiler is an interconnected boiler system that combines innovations in combustion, heat transfer and recovery, vessel engineering, and controls in a highly-efficient steam generation system. It has been successfully tested in Alabama for one year, where it averaged gas savings of nearly 13%. DOE estimates that by 2020, the Super Boiler technology could save more than 185 trillion Btu of energy—equivalent to the natural gas consumed by more than 2 million households.

Industrial Technologies Program Video
The Industrial Technologies Program (ITP) is part of the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) national energy strategy. ITP's mission is to improve the national energy security, climate, environment, and economic competitiveness by transforming the way that U.S. industry uses energy. ITP leads a national effort to advance combined heat and power (CHP) through its Industrial Distributed Energy program. The program focuses on CHP research and development, technology validation, and market transformation.
