Related Engineering Research Centers Building Energy Center Helps to improve building performance and energy efficiency while educating energy-efficiency engineers and advancing the science of building energy performance. Industrial Training and Assessment Center Conducts free energy, waste and production assessments for small- to mid-sized industries. In a typical year, this Center saves companies the equivalent electricity use of 1,300 houses and the equivalent natural gas use of 280 houses. The Center is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy. All Engineering Centers At UD, centers and institutes extend our focus on experiential learning beyond the classroom into a variety of co-curricular activities.
