Energy Cast Podcast
Trane has been in the HVAC business since 1916. Back then, there wasn’t much talk of microgrids or decarbonization, but that’s exactly what my guest’s group is doing today. Becky Wacker, Trane’s sales director for Energy Services, says their group grew out of a long history understanding the spaces they’re cooling. That comes in handy, despite an entire industry that specializes exclusively in energy efficiency.

Becky says about 40% of a building’s energy consumption is HVAC. Of that, 30% is wasted. She says it is critical to understand how people use a building and consume the energy inside. From there, her team can go to work, saving energy in ways the people inside may never notice.
