Our Mission is to develop, demonstrate, and incubate technologies that will improve the competitiveness of Ohio industry through increased energy efficiency, reduced operating costs and improved environmental performance.

We accomplish this by facilitating team building among existing public and private institutions as well as state and federal organizations collectively securing funds for development projects; developing new technologies in cooperation with colleges, universities, Ohio's Edison Programs and National Laboratories; demonstrating and incubating new technologies for commercialization; and offering training and education both directly and through our University/College partnerships for new and existing technologies.

Energy Industries of Ohio a Non-Profit Corporation

Latest News!

Senator Rob Portman and Bob Purgert, President of Energy Industries of Ohio, meet in Washington. The Senator was informed of EIO’s efforts for developing an Ohio advanced baseload energy supply chain. The Senator is a strong proponent of manufacturing and industrial energy efficiency recognizing that lower energy costs translate into jobs for Ohioans.

Dr. Jerzy Sobczak, Director of Poland's Foundry Research Institute and EIO partner receives merit award for international activities from Lech Walesa Polish President (1990-1995), nobel prize recipient and renowned Polish patriot and founder of Solidarity Movement.

Ohio Center for Industrial Energy Efficiency
The Ohio Energy Resources Division (OERD) working in conjunction with Energy Industries of Ohio (EIO) are continuing their successful working relationship by establishing the Ohio Center for Industrial Energy Efficiency through a 42 month grant from the US Department of Energy, Industrial Technology Program. This Center will integrate state and federal programs into a seamless program for industrial participants and develop the infrastructure needed to deliver DOE SEN products and services in a cost effective manner to Ohio companies.

Principal Investigators for this effort are Mr. Anthony Sutor, Industrial Energy Efficiency Lead at the Ohio Energy Resources Division and Mr. Lawrence C. Boyd Jr., Director of Industrial Technology Programs at Energy Industries of Ohio. Major participants include the Ohio's investor-owned electric utilities, Ohio's natural gas suppliers, the University of Dayton, Case Western Reserve University, DOE Energy Experts, Qualified Specialists, and certified Best Practices instructors in Ohio.

Additional details on OCIEE can be found under the Industrial Energy Efficiency tab at the top of the page.

Robert Purgert, President of Energy Industries of Ohio is awarded a Project Medal by Dr. Jerzy Sobczak, President, Foundry Research Institute during the Institute's 65th Anniversary ceremony in Krakow Poland celebrated in October 2011

Advanced UltraSuperCritical Steam Boiler/Turbine Program
A new 5 year effort to focus on identified candidate alloys to meet 760°C and 5,000 psi operating conditions in steam turbine applications was initiated. This project augments the $50Million U.S. Department of Energy/Ohio Coal Development Office program already underway investigating boiler materials and will conduct more detailed evaluations of the weldability, mechanical properties and reparability of selected candidate alloys for rotors, casings and valves and perform scale up studies to establish a design basis for commercial scale components. Efforts associated with high nickel alloys will be targeted for developing the specific means of casting and fabricating using electric arc/AOD; vacuum and/or pressure casting and/or powder metallurgy processes. A supplemental program funded by the Ohio Coal Development Office will undertake supporting tasks such as testing and trials to define specific metal casting techniques needed for producing commercial scale components at Ohio foundries.
