There are many examples where timely financial funding for new builds or retrofits have enabled local government and commercial enterprises to undertake a green and sustainable building projects. Financial constraints are often one of the only reasons for a project being slow off the starting gun. Here’s how Evo Energy Technologies joined forces with the Clean Energy Finance Corporation. Cardinia Life Leisure Centre With the aid of the Clean Energy Finance Corporation and Evo Energy Technologies the Cardinia Life leisure centre project was able to be completed. Cardinia Life is a leisure facility in Pakenham, Victoria. The facility was reponsible for a massive 26% of the council’s total emission profile or 2,325 tonnes. To mitigate against this, the Cardinia City Council engaged Evo Energy Technologies to provision a cogeneration plant and to upgrade their facilities for maximum energy efficiency and cost savings. Evo Energy Technologies installed a Miraclegen MC247N-SC CHP unit with a electrical output of 135kW and thermal output of 210kW. Remote monitoring and optimal control will be easily achieved via ComAp’s Intellimonitor and Websupervisor systems. This means that the system can be closely monitored from any computer or smartphone device, from anywhere in the world.

By reducing the operational cost of the facility, the council reduces the centre’s cost to ratepayers while significantly reducing the centre’s carbon emissions. This was an incredible success story for the …
