Energy Recovery at the Juneau Center
April 2013
We get excited about energy recovery! This photo is of the energy recovery wheel inside the ERU at the Juneau Center. Depending on the season, this wheel captures energy and either pre-heats or pre-cools outdoor air, allowing us to reduce energy loads.
