ENERGY CONSERVATION PLAN

Facts - Strategy - Commitment
One of the many responsibilities for you in the operation and profitability of your business is a continual search
for ways to decrease operating costs and improve efficiency without compromising comfort or quality of the work environment.
It is well known that lighting makes up a sizable portion of your electric bill; usually around 40% in most commercial facilities but can be as much as 60%.
What you may not know is that today's lighting products are much more efficient than products installed only a few years ago and used in many facilities today.
As a result, you could be spending much more of your limited resources on maintaining your existing lighting system than what it would cost to either install or
retrofit to a more modern, energy-efficient lighting system.
Efficiency Energy Services will listen to and discuss your requirements and provide a turnkey lighting system solution that will meet your specific needs while
reducing your energy costs. Efficiency Energy Services has the technical and operational capability to audit, design, install, and maintain a variety of lighting
applications from large concentrated facilities, including industrial plants, to smaller, decentralized facilities, such as convenience stores. We will custom-design
a plan guaranteed to lower your energy costs.
One of the key elements to Efficiency Energy Services’ energy efficiency approach is to undertake tasks simultaneously to expedite efforts and reach substantial energy
cost reductions as soon as possible. The conservation program could commence within days after contract approval and would be complete within a few weeks, depending upon
the measures to be implemented, and the availability of the facility for retrofit work. Efficiency Energy Services will provide a single source of responsibility including
the evaluation, design, financing, and installation of all equipment.
Identified Opportunities
The following retrofits are structured to fit within the energy efficiency program contract.
An operating lease/purchase financing option through a third party can be discussed and made available upon customer request.
INDOOR LIGHTING SYSTEMS
• T12 lamps/magnetic ballasts to T8 lamps/electronic ballasts
• Incandescent lamps to compact fluorescent lamps
• Incandescent exit signs to LED exit signs

COST/ BENEFIT SUMMARY

Improvements That Pay For Themselves
The savings from lighting retrofits in commercial facilities, when accompanied by a utility incentive,
can pay for themselves in as little as 18-30 months. In fact, retrofits can reduce lighting costs by ~40% or more,
while significantly improving light output and workplace quality. Additionally, improved lighting has a positive impact
on both the working conditions and employee productivity.
Efficiency Energy Services installs the warranted Osram Sylvania, high efficiency lighting system consisting of Sylvania Octron fluorescent lamps
and Sylvania Quicktronic electronic ballasts for lighting retrofits and Technical Consumer Products (TCP) compact fluorescent lamps.
At the time of this writing, Efficiency Energy Services is not aware of any harmonic problems caused by any of the above electronic ballasts,
which are all of high quality (<20% total harmonic distortion). In any case, the harmonic level should be the same as or lower than the existing level.
OTHER OPPORTUNITIES
• High efficiency air conditioning replacements
• High efficiency gas air conditioning replacing electric
• High efficiency motor replacements
• Window film or high efficiency window replacement
