The Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (the Alliance) contracted with Pacific Energy Associates, Inc. (PEA) and Research Into Action, Inc. (RIA), two independent consulting firms, to conduct a study of the market for compressed air efficiency services in the Northwest. This study was completed in July 1998. The Alliance asked PEA/RIA to explore the current level and character of services in the compressed air efficiency market, and to assess whether opportunities exist to increase the level of service offerings.
