Having fun, doing good work, paying it forward.
When the nation was struggling through the energy crisis
of the late 1970s, District Energy St. Paul was conceived out
of a need to establish a stable and cost-effective means of
heating downtown buildings. The founders were visionaries
with an entrepreneurial spirit who looked beyond traditional
solutions. They imbued in the company a culture of
innovation that continues to guide us today.
As proud as we are of our success, we must look beyond
the horizon to ensure that our future energy systems will
be cost-effective and fully sustainable. Our ultimate goal is
to completely eliminate the use of fossil fuel. This goal is
attainable if we broaden our thinking and envision District
Energy as a provider of integrated energy solutions rather
than a traditional district energy system.
An integrated energy system is one that combines aspects of
multiple systems and technologies to achieve greater efficiencies
than any single system could ever achieve on its own. The
combined heat and power (CHP) plant is one example of such
a system. We use steam turbines to generate electricity, and
capture the excess steam to heat the water used to heat
downtown Saint Paul buildings.
Integrating energy systems can help solve the challenges that
prevent a renewable energy technology from reaching its full
potential, thereby making it more viable and cost-effective.
For example, consider the promising technology of solar thermal,
in which the sun’s energy is used to heat water, which can then
be used to heat buildings. This is a great solution as long as the
energy supply and customer demand remain in balance. However,
when the system supplies more hot water than is needed, how do
you store that energy and keep it available for use at night?
A hot water district energy system is the perfect complement
to the use of solar thermal systems. We already have the hot
water distribution system in place. By connecting a solar thermal
system and adding a storage tank to the network, we could take
in as much hot water as the solar system could create, distribute
whatever amount is needed, and store the excess for future use.
District Energy has been testing solar thermal heating on a small
scale for the past year, using panels made in Minnesota, and we
believe there is great potential for larger-scale application in the
near future. Integrating these solutions with a biomass-fueled
CHP plant increases energy efficiency and reduces costs.
Another means of producing more energy with less fuel is by
recovering waste heat from our current heating plant. While
the CHP facility is very efficient by conventional standards, we
could extract even more usable energy from the same amount
of fuel by implementing advanced heat recovery techniques and
additional thermal storage. We are optimistic that we can
implement these advanced techniques in the next three to five
years. This project would also reduce the steam plume that is
visible around our plant in cold weather.
Biomass provides additional possibilities for integration into the
district energy system. Wood residue already comprises about
70 percent of our fuel mix, but we are looking into other sources
of agricultural byproducts, such as corn stover pellets, resulting
from harvesting operations. Other methods of extracting energy
from biomass are also being explored.

As the world confronts the dual realities of climate change and increasing
energy demand, we must look beyond fossil fuels for long-term solutions.
Fortunately, many companies, universities and governments are making
substantial investments in energy research and development. We are uniquely
positioned to integrate the best of these technologies into our system, making
each technology more efficient than it could ever be by itself. That is the
beauty of an integrated energy system, and we intend to be industry leaders
for years to come.

Physician
Intervention
Services
Discreet. Confidential.
Effective.
Do you have a disruptive physician on
your staff? Someone who intimidates,
bullies or demeans coworkers and
patients, has verbal outbursts,
throws items at others or makes
physical threats? A physician who
engages in inappropriate sexual
behavior or retaliates against those
who make complaints?
Physicians exhibiting disruptive
behavior can be extremely costly in
terms of lost time, productivity and staff
morale. Unchecked, they potentially
threaten the safety of your patients and
staff, diminish the reputation of your
institution—and increase your exposure
to malpractice suits.
It’s often hard to know what to do and
how to do it—particularly in the early
stages when an inappropriate behavior
is noticed but not deemed critical.
Yet the need for early and effective
intervention has never been greater:
In order to keep JCAHO accreditation,
every hospital now must have a
system in place for recognizing and
effectively dealing with disruptive
physicians—whether they’re on staff
or simply have privileges.
In order to minimize the risk of
adverse events and malpractice
suits, medical groups must have the
awareness and skill set to intervene
effectively when a colleague or
employee first begins behaving
unprofessionally.
Organizations that identify and
deal with disruptive behaviors
and performance problems at the
earliest stages can not only save a
considerable amount of time and
money—but also mitigate risk.
RESEARCH DONE BY VANDERBILT UNIVERSITY
MEDICAL CENTER SHOWED THAT 9% OF
PHYSICIANS ACCOUNTED FOR 50% OF
UNSOLICITED PATIENT COMPLAINTS—AND OVER
50% OF MALPRACTICE DOLLARS PAID OUT OVER
THE STUDY PERIOD.

  • 4. District Energy St. Paul Identity, web and print materials “I just wanted to thank you for the good work you did creating our new site. It looks really sharp and we are getting good feedback. It was a pleasure working with you through this process and your patience is commendable.” Jo Boyer Marketing Communications Ever-Green Energy, LLC Having fun, doing good work, paying it forward. When the nation was struggling through the energy crisis of the late 1970s, District Energy St. Paul was conceived out of a need to establish a stable and cost-effective means of heating downtown buildings. The founders were visionaries with an entrepreneurial spirit who looked beyond traditional solutions. They imbued in the company a culture of innovation that continues to guide us today. As proud as we are of our success, we must look beyond the horizon to ensure that our future energy systems will be cost-effective and fully sustainable. Our ultimate goal is to completely eliminate the use of fossil fuel. This goal is attainable if we broaden our thinking and envision District Energy as a provider of integrated energy solutions rather than a traditional district energy system. An integrated energy system is one that combines aspects of multiple systems and technologies to achieve greater efficiencies than any single system could ever achieve on its own. The combined heat and power (CHP) plant is one example of such a system. We use steam turbines to generate electricity, and capture the excess steam to heat the water used to heat downtown Saint Paul buildings. Integrating energy systems can help solve the challenges that prevent a renewable energy technology from reaching its full potential, thereby making it more viable and cost-effective. For example, consider the promising technology of solar thermal, in which the sun’s energy is used to heat water, which can then be used to heat buildings. This is a great solution as long as the energy supply and customer demand remain in balance. However, when the system supplies more hot water than is needed, how do you store that energy and keep it available for use at night? A hot water district energy system is the perfect complement to the use of solar thermal systems. We already have the hot water distribution system in place. By connecting a solar thermal system and adding a storage tank to the network, we could take in as much hot water as the solar system could create, distribute whatever amount is needed, and store the excess for future use. District Energy has been testing solar thermal heating on a small scale for the past year, using panels made in Minnesota, and we believe there is great potential for larger-scale application in the near future. Integrating these solutions with a biomass-fueled CHP plant increases energy efficiency and reduces costs. Another means of producing more energy with less fuel is by recovering waste heat from our current heating plant. While the CHP facility is very efficient by conventional standards, we could extract even more usable energy from the same amount of fuel by implementing advanced heat recovery techniques and additional thermal storage. We are optimistic that we can implement these advanced techniques in the next three to five years. This project would also reduce the steam plume that is visible around our plant in cold weather. Biomass provides additional possibilities for integration into the district energy system. Wood residue already comprises about 70 percent of our fuel mix, but we are looking into other sources of agricultural byproducts, such as corn stover pellets, resulting from harvesting operations. Other methods of extracting energy from biomass are also being explored. District Energy St. Paul, Inc. and District Cooling St. Paul, Inc.

Fortunately, many companies, universities and governments are making substantial investments in energy research and development. We are uniquely positioned to integrate the best of these technologies into our system, making each technology more efficient than it could ever be by itself. That is the beauty of an integrated energy system, and we intend to be industry leaders for years to come.

PHYSICIAN WELLNESS SERVICES P R O M O T I N G H E A L T H I E R P R A C T I C E S Physician Intervention Services Discreet. Confidential. Effective. Do you have a disruptive physician on your staff? Someone who intimidates, bullies or demeans coworkers and patients, has verbal outbursts, throws items at others or makes physical threats? A physician who engages in inappropriate sexual behavior or retaliates against those who make complaints? Physicians exhibiting disruptive behavior can be extremely costly in terms of lost time, productivity and staff morale. Unchecked, they potentially threaten the safety of your patients and staff, diminish the reputation of your institution—and increase your exposure to malpractice suits. It’s often hard to know what to do and how to do it—particularly in the early stages when an inappropriate behavior is noticed but not deemed critical. Yet the need for early and effective intervention has never been greater: In order to keep JCAHO accreditation, every hospital now must have a system in place for recognizing and effectively dealing with disruptive physicians—whether they’re on staff or simply have privileges. In order to minimize the risk of adverse events and malpractice suits, medical groups must have the awareness and skill set to intervene effectively when a colleague or employee first begins behaving unprofessionally. Organizations that identify and deal with disruptive behaviors and performance problems at the earliest stages can not only save a considerable amount of time and money—but also mitigate risk. RESEARCH DONE BY VANDERBILT UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER SHOWED THAT 9% OF PHYSICIANS ACCOUNTED FOR 50% OF UNSOLICITED PATIENT COMPLAINTS—AND OVER 50% OF MALPRACTICE DOLLARS PAID OUT OVER THE STUDY PERIOD.
