C ASE STUDY

We had an outside, independent party perform a utility bill analysis, which proved that the retro/recommissioning saved USD 1,344,110 in power costs.

Throughout the United States and the Middle East region, there are thousands and thousands of buildings and chilled water plants that have tremendous opportunities to save vast amounts of energy, even if they have implemented various ECMs and have already saved energy. Indeed, retro/ recommissioning still have the ability to save substantially more energy.

Chiller and chilled water plant retro/ recommissioning should be a major part and the first step in energy conservation.

It will – as we have found and as our data proves – save the bulk of energy even over employing any other expensive ECMs at the chilled water plant and should be the major part of the solution for buildings and chilled water plants looking to conserve and save power and money. This solution is suitable for a wide range of facilities in new buildings, chilled water plants and in older facilities. For many owners, retro/recommissioning can be included in the maintenance/ service agreement, and the energy savings will be an operational expense and not a capital expense. In addition to the improved energy efficiency will also come greatly improved chiller reliability, as an efficient chiller is a reliable chiller. The facilities will also have improved comfort and the ability to meet cooling requirements during peak load.
