FCI Looking To Roll Up Its Sleeves in Long Beach (Delivering A Sustainable Planet #4)

So it turns out the city of Long Beach is serious about energy efficiency and conservation. In 2006, the city installed a giant photovoltaic system in the Long Beach Convention Center. According to LongBeach.gov the system pumps out over 1 million kW-hours of pollution free electricity, making it one of the premier solar systems on the west coast. Since FCI has recently made its humble abode in Long Beach, we are eager and anticipating to join the city's energy cause as it pertains to the city wide approach to sustainability, conservation, and efficiency.  This progressive city is a perfect fit for FCI because we share a common goal in delivering a sustainable planet. FCI is looking to partner with Long Beach in implementing Demand Response programs (The convention center and city hall participate in Edison DR programs) and other initiatives that assist Long Beach in reaching its conservation ambitions.

FCI's Open House is a Big Hit!

                                                       

FCI and ES&T (Energy Services and Technology) recently hosted an open house event in celebration of its one year anniversary at the brand new Long Beach, CA facility. The new FCI headquarters was the place to be as representatives from Southern California Edison, SoCal Gas, LADWP (Los Angeles Department of Water and Power), Councilmember Steven Neal (Long Beach, 9th District), and a host of other distinguished guests were in attendance. FCI was proud to showcase its 11,000 square foot facility and highlighted new energy technologies within the building such as: High Bay LED fixtures, motion sensors, the PERI Grid Max Analytics system, Remote controlled flat panel LED fixtures, and AMTC Hybridflo/Hybridflush products. FCI's Chief Executive Officer, Patricia Watts, unveiled the company's crisp new logo and announced a definitive merger between FCI and ES&T, creating their new holding company FCI Energy Services and Technologies Group,Inc. and the joint venture with Peri Software Solutions (founders of the Peri Grid Max Analytics system). The environment was electric with live jazz, professional catering (which was delicious), and plenty of networking. To say the least, FCI knows how to throw a party. Video footage and pictures from the event will be up soon!
