Energy Conservation for Business

Conserving the Energy You Use in Your Business

Depending upon the nature of your business and whether you have taken advantage of BC Hydro’s program to lower your energy costs, you can significantly improve your business’ bottom line, especially after paying off your initial energy investment.  Doing so improves not only the economic bottom line, but often the social and environmental bottom lines, too.  Everyone wins

Government grants can pay for 25% of the energy upgrades to your building, and generous incentives are available from the utility companies!

Examples:

How?

Reduction in energy costs can be found in such areas as lighting, heating, insulation, programmable timers and thermostats or manually switching off energy users between uses, and more.

Renewable energy sources such as solar hot water can be added, reducing the amount of current (increasingly costly) energy you need, as well as showing the community that you are a responsible business!

Our services provide you a free initial assessment of some of the possibilities. Should you decide to improve your triple bottom line through making the necessary investment then we will provide you the direction you need. You may be able to qualify for assistance from various sources -if we apply before you begin.

Advantages of taking these steps:

• save money and improve on your bottom line
• improve the environment
• improve reliability with your energy supply, reducing down-time
• truly claim that you are an increasingly “green business.”
• improved fleet efficiencies

Why should I pay for this service?

• You will have a team of experienced energy consultants providing the guidance needed so that you can be saved from wasted money, wasted energy, and costly mistakes, all far more easily than if you do nothing -or try to do it on your own. 
• Involving us before you start making changes means you can qualify for more incentives, often saving much or all of the cost of our service.
  
• Most businesses have little to no experience in determining how to become more energy efficient. Not knowing how to proceed means costly losses to the business’ bottom line -both in terms of wasted energy costs, and more significantly, in lowered productivity. 'Green buildings' are proven to greatly increase employee satisfaction, reduce sick-days, and improve productivity.
• The longer you wait to do something, the more money you throw away.
• Those businesses who attempt to make changes without consulting a qualified energy consultant, one that is not tied to particular service companies, may expend more resources getting the desired outcome. Too often nothing is done.
• In a word, using our services will likely more than pay for itself, and lead to a superior end result.

In summary, the cost of our services is small in relation to the ultimate gains in energy efficiency and renewable energy sources, adding real value to your business, building and the productivity it leads to. Our service will likely more than pay for itself by means of fewer headaches, lower energy costs, lower borrowing costs, improved productivity and employee retention, public perception/branding, and a superior end result
