Retrofits that hit their numbers
A retrofit is where a capital decision becomes a built outcome — and where undermanaged projects lose their numbers. Scope creep, contractor coordination gaps, commissioning shortcuts, and incentive paperwork that didn't get filed: these are the reasons a 15% energy reduction turns into 6%.
The capital decision you make today locks in your building's performance for the next 25 years.
When equipment fails, the pressure to replace it fast is real. But the cheapest available solution that works today is often the most expensive decision you'll make over the life of the asset — because you're locking in energy costs, emissions exposure, and foregone incentives for decades.
SPG brings the sustainability lens to capital decisions before they get made. What are the trade-offs between a direct replacement and an electrified alternative? What incentive programs are available right now — and which ones expire before your next capital cycle? What financing options change the math? What tax credits apply?
That analysis shouldn't happen after the contract is signed. We help you get it done before.
Our team delivers across the full range of building retrofit measures:
- HVAC upgrades and replacements (boiler, chiller, Air Handling Unit (AHU), and Variable Air Volume (VAV) systems)
- Heat pump and electrification conversions
- Building envelope improvements (insulation, air sealing, window upgrades)
- Lighting retrofits and controls upgrades
- Building Automation System (BAS) and controls modernization
- Domestic Hot Water (DHW) system upgrades
- Electric Vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure
- Solar photovoltaic (PV) integration
Every SPG retrofit runs on RETRO:
M&V isn't a formality — it's what protects your investment and funds the next one.
Measurement & Verification is not optional. Every major retrofit incentive program — BOMA Enspire, Save on Energy, BC Hydro COO — requires it. More importantly, M&V data is what turns one retrofit into a smarter next one. The learning from 3,500+ projects flows back into every new scope we write.
