Energy and Resources

Energy and resources lie at the heart of our modern economy. People depend on a reliable supply of fuel, electricity, and materials for everything from turning on the lights in the morning to agricultural production and heavy industry. At Amcana, we help provide intelligent choices for the modern economy, including renewable energy resources, Smart Grid technologies, district energy systems,

and lean systems for materials extraction and processing. These solutions provide strong return on investment, mitigate environmental risks, and provide a hedge against the volatile prices inherent in the fossil fuel energy markets.

Renewable Energy Resources

We have a wealth of knowledge and hands on experience developing renewable energy resources. We understand the technologies, deliver added financial benefits and incentives, and believe that renewable energy offers a strong long-term investment in energy security. Whether you are looking to install wind turbines, solar panels, a biogas collection system, or a biomass boiler, we can help you provide profitable renewable energy.

Smart Grid

Smart Grid technologies are the way forward in providing a reliable, flexible, secure, and intelligently managed energy infrastructure for the 21^st century. While renewable energy is often incorporated into it, the Smart Grid offers much more, and is a new way of thinking about how energy is managed, stored, controlled and distributed. We can provide guidance with respect to Smart Grid solutions, including peak shaving techniques, demand side resources, automation and controls, energy efficiency measures, thermal and electricity storage, and increased system reliability.

District Energy Systems

Cogeneration plants, including renewable biomass energy, can deliver the electricity, steam, and hot water needed for district energy systems. We have experience with and an appreciation for projects and operations involving chilled water systems for district cooling, geothermal energy sources, and biomass cogeneration.
