Delta Energy Solutions, LLC

We are committed to changing how the world thinks about residential energy needs – one unique customer at a time. This company provides engineering solutions for new and existing home construction. Every solution is as unique as the clients’ goals and home site. We are a highly specialized engineering firm that has extensive knowledge and experience in the design and construction of residential homes that utilize energy saving technology. We are not a solar-installation company; while solar panels are the “in” thing and may be a desired option for many clients, this type of system may not be appropriate for every house. Our systems-engineering approach results in a toolbox containing many more options.

Many people entertain the false notion that saving energy means to living in a cold, dark house – on the contrary, a properly designed home is warm, well-lit and contains all the modern conveniences you expect; and your utility bill will be far less than your neighbors’!

Houses can lose significant amounts of energy when constructed using traditional building methods. The two pictures below taken at the same time and date show thermal images of two neighboring homes, both built in the year 2020. The home on the left was built using traditional methods in accordance with current building codes. The bright yellow colors in the left photo represent significant heat loss. By comparison, the house in the right photo was built using modern 21st-century building methods and materials. The darker orange and red colors in the right image illustrate that superior insulation significantly reduces heat loss, resulting in lower utility bills.

At Delta Energy Solutions, our company’s objective is to maximize your return on investment, and we will provide a conservative cost analysis prior to construction that will show your return on investment for a variety of solutions that are applicable to your home.

Who We Are, Meet Founder Rob Wilson, P.E.

Rob is a Colorado-licensed Professional Engineer (P.E.) with 25 years of engineering experience, specializing in thermodynamics and heat transfer. He holds a bachelor’s and master’s degree in aerospace engineering.

While Rob’s career started out in 1995 working at the Air Force Research Laboratory involving rocket propulsion systems, his lifelong passion for improving environmental conditions led him to establish this company. Environmentalist ideals are merging in his work with practical engineering solutions.

Our toolbox includes:

    1. Passive technologies for new construction like
      a. super-insulation
      b. airtight construction
      c. positioning and size of windows as well as high-efficiency glass
      d. positioning of awnings, shutters, and blinds or
      e. adding thermal mass to absorb heat – all of which are part of the Passivehouse concept.  For existing homes methods include sealing of gaps, improving insulation, upgrading windows and doors, and installations of shutters and blinds.
    2. Passive technologies for new construction like
      a. solar hot water heater panels
      b. solar electric (photovoltaic) systems
      c. radiant floor heating and cooling for both new construction and existing structures
      d. heat and moisture recovery ventilation
    3. A comprehensive systems approach to design and construction

Most of the above-mentioned methods have been incorporated into Rob’s 2,300-square-foot active and passive solar mountain home, for which he designed the mechanical, plumbing, electrical, and thermal systems. The home uses active as well as passive solar concepts has walls with an R-value of 32 and a ceiling rated R-60. Rob’s most recent utility bill during the cold season of the year totaled $36, which was exclusively used to charge his electric car, while the entire house was effectively running off-grid.
