Exhibit 31.1

CERTIFICATIONS

I, Daniel A. Zimmerman, certify that:

         1. I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Electric & Gas
Technology, Inc.;

         2. Based on my knowledge,  this  quarterly  report does not contain any
untrue  statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact  necessary
to make the  statements  made,  in light of the  circumstances  under which such
statements  were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this
quarterly report;

         3. Based on my knowledge,  the consolidated  financial statements,  and
other financial information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in
all  material  respects  the  consolidated   financial  condition,   results  of
operations  and cash  flows  of the  registrant  as of,  and  for,  the  periods
presented in this quarterly report;

         4. The registrant's  other certifying officer and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining  disclosure  controls and procedures (as defined in
the Exchange Act Rules 13a- 14 and 15d- 14) for the registrant and have:

         a)       designed  such  disclosure  controls and  procedures to ensure
                  that  material   information   relating  to  the   registrant,
                  including its consolidated  subsidiaries,  is made known to us
                  by others  within  those  entities,  particularly  during  the
                  period in which this quarterly report is being prepared;

         b)       evaluated the  effectiveness  of the  registrant's  disclosure
                  controls and  procedures  as of a date within 90 days prior to
                  the filing  date of this  quarterly  report  (the  "Evaluation
                  Date"); and

         c)       presented in this quarterly  report our conclusions  about the
                  effectiveness of the disclosure  controls and procedures based
                  on our evaluation as of the Evaluation Date;

         5. The  registrant's  other  certifying  officer and I have  disclosed,
based on our most recent evaluation,  to the registrant's auditors and the audit
committee  of  registrant's  board  of  directors  (or  persons  performing  the
equivalent functions):

         a)       all  significant  deficiencies  in the design or  operation of
                  internal   controls   which   could   adversely   affect   the
                  registrant's ability to record, process,  summarize and report
                  financial  data  and  have  identified  for  the  registrant's
                  auditors any material weaknesses in internal controls; and

         b)       any fraud,  whether or not material,  that involves management
                  or  other  employees  who  have  a  significant  role  in  the
                  registrant's internal controls.
