Energy Audits

Knowledge is power. Identify opportunities to reduce your energy consumption and costs.

Property Management Energy Audits

Not all buildings are the same, so cookie-cutter solutions aren’t always the answer. Buildings in your portfolio require expert analysis of internal and external factors, which vary from place to place.

Why do an Energy Audit?

The world of energy efficiency is complex. Generalized energy efficiency calculations don’t always result in actualized energy savings. We understand our clients’ need to minimize the time and risk involved in energy conservation projects across single or multiple facilities. Let us do the work and reduce those risks.   By conducting an in-depth energy audit, Sustainable Projects Group will help to identify energy savings opportunities that will decrease your annual utility consumption and cut costs while maintaining or improving existing facility operations. Energy audits are the first step in creating significant utility consumption, cost, and greenhouse gas savings.

What will conducting an Energy Audit achieve?

Accuracy and Reliability

Having up to date information on your building systems ensure risk and uncertainty are minimized while maximizing cost savings.

Efficient Operations

An audit will identify any inefficiencies in facility systems operations and outline several applicable cost savings measures.

Informed Decisions

Our experts perform in-depth analyses which provides you with the data you need to make confident and informed energy efficiency decisions.

The SPG Energy Audit Process:

Our 5 step audit process provides comprehensive datasets, time savings, and reduced project risks. We complete comprehensive energy audits and reports for our clients, proposing energy efficiency upgrades which will return the highest energy savings and reduced operating costs.

Incentives

SPG researches available incentives that can be used to help fund the energy audit as well as any energy efficiency measures identified. We complete any required documentation on behalf of our clients, ensuring to leverage maximum project funding.

Site Assessment

Our team of specialists conducts a thorough site assessment which analyzes all existing building systems, including the building envelope and all electrical, lighting, mechanical, and water systems.

Modeling & Analysis

Using various software applications and information gained from the site assessment, including energy utility bills, SPG builds an accurate model of the facility’s energy consumption.

Energy Conservation Measures

The building data and model are analyzed to determine a set of Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) that can be implemented within the facility. All relevant data is provided for each ECM, including estimated energy savings, simple payback periods, applicable technologies, and any existing government incentives. 

Strategy

SPG will work alongside your organization to create a strategy that aligns with your corporate objectives and applicable incentive funding, ensuring that every dollar invested is fully leveraged for actualized energy savings.
