Data Transfer Solutions to participate in pilot program to reduce energy consumption in Longmont, Colo.

ORLANDO, Fla. --- Data Transfer Solutions, LLC (DTS), based in Orlando’s Avalon Park, recently was selected with Brendle Group, of Fort Collins, Colo., to participate in a pilot program to reduce energy consumption in Longmont, Colo.

A.M. “Trey” Fragala III, AICP, PMP, chief operating officer at Data Transfer Solutions, said Longmont’s energy efficiency information and education program is one of the most progressive approaches to energy efficiency in the nation.

“The goal of this project is to test and evaluate which methods of providing energy consumption information are most useful to city residents,” Fragala explained.

“The city wants to learn which energy efficiency tools result in the highest level of voluntary household efficiencies and decreased energy consumption,” he said.

DTS developed a suite of carbon calculator tools for Park City, Utah, that provides homeowners with monthly assessments of their energy use online.

“The city of Longmont realizes that significant efficiencies can be achieved if we can provide families with information on what they are doing right,” Fragala said.

“Our goal has been to assemble the data in a format that is easy to understand, effective and accurate,” Fragala said.

DTS provides asset management, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), transportation planning/engineering, web design, database/software applications, and video and multi media production services to local governments and regional and state agencies throughout the U.S.
