What is IAC?

The Industrial Assessment Center at IUPUI is proudly sponsored by the US Department of Energy (DOE) with the primary objective of assisting small and medium-sized companies in enhancing energy efficiency. Through the center’s initiatives, complimentary energy assessments are conducted, alongside the training of the next generation of energy efficiency professionals. These efforts are underpinned by robust research on energy management tools.

The comprehensive energy assessments provided by the center serve as invaluable resources for manufacturers and commercial building owners. By meticulously examining energy usage patterns, these assessments unveil opportunities for productivity enhancement, energy consumption reduction, and cost savings. Furthermore, the research tools developed by the center contribute to enhancing the quality of energy-saving recommendations and the accuracy of return-on-investment estimations. These aspects are pivotal in realizing the overarching program goal set forth by the DOE.
