ESAs will be conducted during calendar year 2007 by DOE "Qualified Specialists" that are certified by DOE as ESA Experts and are listed on the DOE Qualified Bidders List for 2007. Qualified Specialists are individuals who have satisfied the DOE Specialist Qualification training program requirements, and thus have demonstrated - by passing an examination - that they are proficient in the use of one or more of the DOE industrial systems software tools including AirMaster+ (AM+), Fan System Assessment Tool (FSAT), Process Heating Assessment and Survey Tool (PHAST), Pumping Systems Assessment Tool (PSAT), or the Steam System Assessment Tool Suite (SSAT). ESA Experts are individual ???Qualified Specialists??? who have completed DOE???s ESA Training; one-day Energy Savings Assessment Training session and a one-day ???Lessons Learned??? workshop. The primary objective of the ESA is to identify opportunities for plant staff to improve the efficiency of their compressed air, fan, process heating, pumping, or steam systems.
