Energy Management Services
An energy analysis provides useful information and data that can be applied to your facility for a specific purpose. Normally, developing an energy savings strategy is the goal and an energy audit serves that purpose. But analysis of energy use and cost may also be required for certain government filings and reports (utility allowances for HUD/RD housing, PHA utility budgets, etc.). We can help either way. We offer a variety of energy analysis services for schools, local governments, colleges and universities, public and private multifamily housing, nonprofit organizations and commercial businesses.

Energy Audits
An Energy Audit is a type of energy analysis designed to provide focus and direction for saving energy... an evaluation of existing energy use combined with a list of recommended measures and practices forms a cost-effective strategy for saving energy and dollars. ASHRAE (Association of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers) is the leading authority when it comes to commercial energy analysis and they have defined four distinct types of energy audits: Preliminary (PEA), Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. While an energy audit will usually fit one of these four definitions, the variations are unlimited. Choosing the right energy audit can be a difficult and confusing decision, but your best choice will be the one that best meets your needs. You should have a purpose in mind for using the information that an energy audit provides and make your choice based on that purpose. We offer all four types of energy audits and have performed hundreds... we can help you make the best choice for your facility. The HUD 5-Year Energy Audit is a specific type of ASHRAE Level 2 energy analysis that is required for HUD multifamily buildings once every five years. Multifamily buildings have unique characteristics and considerations; our HUD-approved audit was custom-designed precisely for this purpose. In fact, we use the HUD 5-Year Energy Audit for all multifamily facilities. Whether your multifamily property is public housing or private... we have the right energy audit for you. Check out our 5-Minute Energy Audit Primer, see a Comparison Table for our energy audit analysis methodology and report features, and review our Statement of Qualifications to perform energy audits. |

While it's probably not on your list of favorite activities, it is on ours. We have calculated thousands of utility allowances and would be happy to provide this service for you. Contact us and find out how easy and inexpensive it is to delegate this headache to G-ENERGY. |
