Attitude to energy-efficient technology changes
Implementing green technology, like the Maxsys magnetic fuel treatment, can provide fuel savings but without the capital investment associated with replacing equipment
"Persuading companies to invest in green technology today is like pushing at an open door," says Vanessa Landreau, Marketing Executive of green tech firm, Maxsys.
With fuel prices rising, it is hardly surprising that businesses are turning their attention to technologies that can boost their energy efficiency.
However, with budgets being slashed, Landreau warns that for most companies, investing in green tech is contingent on two things: "Businesses want to know that the technology is proven - that other companies in their sector have found success.
They also need assurance that the technology will pay for itself quickly.
Implementing green technology, like magnetic fuel treatment, can provide fuel savings but without the capital investment associated with replacing equipment".
Maxsys has been installing fuel systems at industrial sites across a range of sectors for more than 5 years, but recent months have seen a surge in demand.
The Maxsys Fuel Systems are standalone devices that improve combustion in boilers and other heating systems.
They produce typical fuel savings of at least 5%, while also yielding a reduction in CO2 emissions.
Best of all, the systems normally achieve payback in a manageable time limit.
Landreau concludes: "The market is definitely opening up to innovative technologies.
Companies have cottoned on to the fact that improving energy efficiency is a smart way of saving money".
