Milestone Alert: 1,100th Energy Assessment Achieved!

I am thrilled to announce a significant milestone for the Oklahoma State University Industrial Assessment Center (OSU IAC). We have successfully completed our 1,100th energy assessment, conducted at Duck Creek Casino in Beggs, Oklahoma. This achievement highlights our steadfast dedication to sustainability, innovation, and industrial efficiency.

The OSU IAC, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Manufacturing Energy Supply Chain, has been instrumental in assisting small and medium-sized enterprises, including manufacturing industries, commercial buildings, and water treatment plants, in enhancing their energy efficiency. Since our inception in 1982, we have contributed immensely to Oklahoma's industrial landscape, delivering invaluable recommendations that not only improve operations but also reduce environmental impact, resulting in savings exceeding $130 million. Our commitment to a greener future and sustainable practices is unwavering, and we are proud to celebrate this remarkable milestone with our community. Thank you for being part of our journey towards a more energy-efficient world!
