Commercial
Numerous studies show that most commercial buildings can reduce energy consumption by about 15 percent on average (5 to 30 percent for individual buildings) without significant capital investment. So why are property owners and managers not identifying and implementing these opportunities in their buildings? While the specific reasons vary company to company and owner to owner, within the commercial sector there is often a lack of focus on managing energy costs.
Strategic Energy Group has developed a set of tools and processes, specific to the commercial sector, that address the primary barriers to energy management for commercial buildings. Our approach combines our staff’s nationally respected technical proficiency with business energy management expertise and we engage our clients through one-on-one and group coaching and mentoring.
We focus on these primary elements of commercial energy management:
- Obtaining senior management commitment
- Identifying an operations champion(s)
- Determining specific energy goals and objectives
- Tracking performance against self and others
- Conducting an opportunity assessment
- Implementing Action Plans (both short and long term activities/opportunities)
- Achieving and sustaining energy management goals
