WASHINGTON - In an awards ceremony at the Earth Technologies Forum, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) presented its Climate Protection Award to Turbocor Inc. for its oil-free, high-efficiency compressor technology. Commenting on the award at a press conference, Brian Evans, president and CEO of Turbocor (Dorval, Quebec), noted that his company is only the second HVAC manufacturer to receive the EPA's highest environmental award.
"We feel that the Turbocor technology epitomizes the goal of the U.S. EPA's Responsible Use vision, a vision that encourages owners, systems designers, and manufacturers to invest in the highest efficiency/lowest emissions technologies and then provide documented sustainability of this high level of performance over the entire lifetime of the product, system, or service," said Evans.
