Your personalized engineering study includes:

• Initial “rough” estimate of potential energy savings.
• List of known and unknown potential energy savings opportunities.
• Estimated energy savings for each unique opportunity identified.
• Estimated implementation costs, as well as simple payback or ROI.
• Analysis of non-energy (O&M) operating cost savings impacts.
• Analysis of increased operational costs or potential penalties.

We will review, prequalify and preapprove funding for all viable proposals and will pay up to 75% of the total study cost (up to $25,000). Any funding is based on the potential energy savings of the project and the cost of the study.

1. Hire a study provider of your choice to analyze the facility and develop recommendations for the most energy efficient opportunities.
2. Secure written pre-approval by completing the application herein along with the engineering proposal that includes the scope of work, and submit this packet to us. The application can be completed online, or by using the following documents.
