(CHESAPEAKE, VA) – Sept. 28, 2020 – Volvo Penta, PowerSecure and Miratech will present an educational webinar on the latest developments in environmentally friendly diesel technology for power generation.

Registration is now open for the one-hour webinar, entitled “The Clean Secret Behind Diesel,” which will debut at 2:00 pm EDT on Tuesday, Sept. 29. Expert speakers will address the subject and questions related to diesel engines complying with the Environmental Protection Agency’s Tier 4 Final clean air standards, with a special focus on microgrid applications.

Attendees will learn:

• EPA Tier 4 Final emission standards

• Myths vs. facts regarding Tier 4 Final diesels

• Benefits of EPA-compliant diesel-based power generation systems

Speakers include: Chris Ellis, executive vice president for distributed infrastructure at PowerSecure; Darren Tasker, vice president of industrial for Volvo Penta of the Americas; and Jim McDonald, director of environmental impact at Miratech. The moderator will be Elisa Wood, energy journalist and editor-in-chief of Microgrid Knowledge. A live Q&A will take place after conclusion of the presentation.

“Despite the proven results of Tier 4 Final power solutions – particularly from an overall cost of ownership, reliable operation and emissions standpoint – questions still remain in the marketplace,” said Tasker. “With this webinar, we aim to educate operators on the overall benefits of a simple, reliable Tier 4 Final package such as the one Volvo Penta and PowerSecure together deliver.”
