Energy Conservation Services
Our conservation services give you the benefit of lower energy consumption without the hassle of managing an energy efficiency or facility modernization project. We provide turnkey project development & implementation – design and engineering services, construction and start-up supervision, project management, and financing assistance.
Whether you need assistance with lighting and control upgrades, boiler and chiller retrofits, HVAC modernization, or any other type of energy-consuming equipment, we can help. Our experts make sure your project is done right from the very start. We take care of everything - from gathering details about your facility needs to overseeing the project from a time, cost and quality perspective.
Progressive Energy can help you uncover opportunities to improve efficiency. We will not only design a plan for achieving peak performance, we'll also manage the entire implementation using our proven, step-by-step approach:
STEP 1: Initial Energy Audit
The first step to improving your facility's energy efficiency is to benchmark the current state. We conduct an preliminary onsite facility audit to gather nameplate data for all your energy-consuming equipment, including hours of operation. We also capture information about your consumption levels and energy spend.
STEP 2: Energy Conservation Recommendaations
We use our knowledge of energy conservation & efficiency design to evaluate the information we've gathered about your facility and outline projects that will help you conserve energy. Our written report of energy conservation measures (ECMs) includes a budgetary estimate of savings, anticipated project costs, the project's impact on greenhouse gas emissions, and return on investment calculations.
STEP 3: Design & Engineering Services
Our engineers conduct an in-depth onsite analysis to gather all the background information required for an investment grade engineering & design solution. We provide you with a highly-detailed plan that includes materials specifications and labor requirements, as well as a final economic analysis for the entire project. This plan outlines the final budget for your project and serves as a road-map for the implementation of agreed-upon energy conservation measures.
STEP 4: Turnkey Project Implementation
To ensure your project is completed on time and within budget, we provide onsite project management and implementation. We take care of managing all the little details, including material suppliers and sub-contracted labor. Our energy experts oversee the final testing and start-up of the installed equipment to ensure you achieve the expected results.
STEP 4: Ongoing Management Services
To ensure your efficiency improvements are achieved month after month, we provide ongoing maintenance & management for projects that have been implemented. We monitor changes in your facility such as hours of operation, building additions, new equipment, routine maintenance schedules, and more - anything that may impact consumption levels. Our energy experts also stay abreast of industry trends and technology, alerting you to new consumption reduction opportunities.
