Posted on: Monday, 24 August 2009, 07:00 CDT

PITTSBURGH and WASHINGTON, Aug. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Charlie Bacon, CEO of Limbach Facility Services, will join U.S. Secretary Of Commerce Gary Locke, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Thomas J. Vilsack and key White House staff members today in a special discussion of industry leaders about energy efficiency and U.S. green job creation. A link to the live webcast, which begins at 9:00 am EDT, can be found at www.WhiteHouse.gov/live.

As CEO of Limbach, one of the nation's oldest mechanical contracting companies specializing in energy and cost saving retrofits for commercial, school and hospital buildings, Bacon has a unique perspective on the role that building energy efficiency can play in national energy reduction.

"Cars are not the only energy clunkers out there. In fact, buildings are far bigger sources of energy waste in this country," said Charlie Bacon, CEO of Limbach Facility Services. "Buildings account for almost half of the energy used in the U.S., which is why for the past 16 years Limbach has been focused on solving the nation's national energy crisis one energy-wasting building at a time."

Through its Energy Solutions division, Limbach uses its entire portfolio of mechanical contracting services - from building design and construction to full building maintenance - to provide a single source for achieving building energy efficiency over a structure's lifetime. Limbach Energy Solutions offers building owners comprehensive energy audits, energy reduction options such as performance contracts, building re-commissioning and operational improvement recommendations. The energy audit examines several options, including utility procurement, building envelope improvements, lighting system upgrades, HVAC equipment replacements and service, automatic temperature controls and building management systems, water conservation and any other major cost centers for owners to operate their buildings. Building enhancements are ideal for hospitals, K-12 and higher education schools, and federal, state and municipal government buildings, as well as owner-occupied commercial and industrial buildings.
