ENERGY EFFICIENCY &
GREENHOUSE GAS REDUCTION
Enviro-Stewards
typically
identif ies opportunities to re-
duce energy consumption by 5
to 15%. Returns on investment
range from 6 months to 2 years,
with many utilities offering co-
funding assistance.
APPROACH
Energy is typically lost from
facilities through several media
(air, water, embedded energy,
etc.). Therefore, Enviro-Stew-
ards utilizes an integrated ap-
proach to secure energy eff i-
ciency gains. Our proven work
phases identify and quantify
opportunities to eliminate or
reduce consumption, then to
improve eff iciency, and f inally
to optimize supply (such as gen-
eration of renewable energy).
ACCESS INCENTIVES
Thermal energy utilities typi-
cally have both assessment and
implementation co-funding pro-
grams.
