Hungarian translation:meghaladja
Explanation:
As the cost of fuel oil continues to rise north of $100 per barrel, Thermal Energy's suite of solutions is even more compelling to industrial clients seeking to achieve operational cost savings and emission reductions," said Tim Angus, Thermal Energy President and CEO. "As a result, our typical solution size for our clients continues to grow, with this project being substantially larger than any in Thermal's history."


The unemployment rate is going to rise; north of 10 percent is likely. It's just not going to turn around on a dime.
