Axford Turbine Power Generation Consultants - Services https://www.axfordconsulting.com/taxonomy/term/5/0 en Forecasting and Market Analysis https://www.axfordconsulting.com/forecasting-and-market-analysis.html <p>Axford Turbine Consultants, LLC, helps customers understand the supply and 
demand fundamentals that shape the market.&nbsp; To forecast future demand, 
Axford begins by analyzing past trends from a historical database for 
gas turbines and steam turbines that goes back to 1980.&nbsp; Orders and
 shipment history can be understood for every major make and model
 of gas and steam turbine as well related questions such as 1) <em>trends in unit size and simple vs combined cycle plant design; 2) geographic distribution of orders; and 3) competitive market shares.</em></p> <p>In addition, Axford Turbine Consultants, LLC, provides general business consulting to industrial companies to evaluate self-generation, cogeneration or other energy conservation opportunities at a manufacturing facility.&nbsp; Large engineering companies often approach an energy audit with a SWAT team that generates 
a huge report with too much detail at too much cost.&nbsp; Axford&rsquo;s approach is to 
quickly point out the low hanging fruit, work up a simple payback analysis,
 and coach the client on implementation.&nbsp; An equipment solution does not 
fit into every situation. Sometimes, the solution involves understanding 
how the supply markets for fuel and electricity work together.&nbsp; Axford helps 
clients prepare for negotiations with fuel and electricity providers and to 
stimulate competition.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Services Mon, 07 Feb 2011 16:17:02 +0000 admin81 24 at https://www.axfordconsulting.com Valuation / Appraisal https://www.axfordconsulting.com/valuation-appraisal.html <p>Owners, buyers and sellers sometimes need a professional opinion about the value of a turbine generator.&nbsp; The need can be related to a pending transaction,
 a tax dispute or a residual value estimation for a lender.&nbsp;&nbsp; Equipment values
 go up and down, much like real estate.&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="background-color:#ffff00;">Why hire an appraiser? </span></p> <p>To perform a valid valuation requires 
an understanding of fleet size of the turbine, recent transactions for that
 particular model of turbine and projected demand during the next few years.
