Berkshire Hathaway Energy Will Spend $91 Million for Valves Next Year
Berkshire Hathaway has acquired and merged a number of power and gas
transmission companies. It has also created BHE Renewables. The group now
known as Berkshire Hathaway Energy (BHE) will spend $91 million on average for
valves over the next five years. Because of its distributed generation
and certain other activities in the areas where it supplies electricity, it will
indirectly influence valve purchases of as much as $54 million annually from
small generators from whom it is buying electricity or with whom it is
collaborating. The connection involves EPCs and consultants each of whom are
specifying or buying valves for multiple utilities. So, the market potential is
much larger than just what BHE buys.

Berkshire Hathaway Energy Will Spend $62 Million for Pumps Next Year
Berkshire Hathaway has acquired and merged a number of power and gas
transmission companies. It has also created BHE Renewables. The group now
known as Berkshire Hathaway Energy (BHE) will spend $62 million on average for
pumps over the next five years. Because of its distributed generation
and certain other activities in the areas where it supplies electricity, it will
indirectly influence pump purchases of as much as $42 million annually from
small generators from whom it is buying electricity or with whom it is
collaborating. The connection involves EPCs and consultants each of whom are
specifying or buying pumps for multiple utilities. So, the market potential is
much larger than just what BHE buys. Also, if the system results in
successful early adoption of new technologies, the impact on pump sales will be
widespread.

Berkshire Hathaway Energy Will Spend $100 Million for Monitoring and Automation
Next Year
Berkshire Hathaway has acquired and merged a number of power and gas
transmission companies. It has also created BHE Renewables. The group now
known as Berkshire Hathaway Energy (BHE) will spend $100 million per year on
average for monitoring and automation over the next five years. Because of
its distributed generation and certain other activities in the areas where it
supplies electricity, it will indirectly influence monitoring purchases of as
much as $41 million annually from small generators from whom it is buying
electricity or with whom it is collaborating. A large automation program
associated with NOx reduction is under consideration for four
coal-fired units. In general, BHE is emphasizing improved efficiency while
lowering emissions and expects to use smart sensors and neural networks.
The connection involves EPCs and consultants each of whom are specifying or
buying monitors and controls for multiple utilities. So, the market potential is
much larger than just what BHE buys. Also, if the system results in
successful early adoption of new technologies the impact on sales will be
widespread.

Berkshire Hathaway Energy Will Spend $146 Million for Liquid/Solid Separation
and Water Treatment Control Next Year
Berkshire Hathaway has acquired and merged a number of power and gas
transmission companies. It has also created BHE Renewables. The group now
known as Berkshire Hathaway Energy (BHE) will spend $146 million per year on
average for liquid/solid separation and water treatment equipment and chemicals
over the next five years. Because of its distributed generation
and certain other activities in the areas where it supplies electricity, it will
indirectly influence separation and treatment purchases of as much as
$33 million annually from small generators from whom it is buying electricity or
with whom it is collaborating. The connection involves EPCs and consultants each
of whom are specifying or buying treatment equipment for multiple utilities. So,
the market potential is much larger than just what BHE buys. Also, if the
system results in successful early adoption of new technologies the impact on
treatment sales will be widespread.
