How It Works
The biggest challenge to energy efficiency is capital.
Either the lack thereof or competing interests for the same dollars. This applies to all businesses and government agencies alike. Every business is forced to focus on existing budgets and business needs in order to maintain sound financial practices. In order to invest in energy efficiency upgrades or technology, one has to either use existing capital or incur additional debt service to make the investment.
Insight has created an approach that eliminates the need for upfront capital.
Our Energy Efficiency-as-a Service model allows us to design, engineer, and implement any size project with NO CAPITAL required from you. Plus, we can pre-pay you the savings on the project before we start the work.
We provide 100% of the investment in upgrades, all the technology and equipment to provide you with the most energy efficient facility possible virtually eliminating all the competing and financial hurdles associated with investing in the future. We combine HVAC, lighting, water, refrigeration, monitoring, IT, and other areas into a streamlined project that pays for itself through the savings. As a result, your operational costs will be reduced and you will have a positive impact on the environment.
Our Process
Evaluate → Analyze → Implement
Making the invisible, visible. Everyone understands that it takes energy to make your business or office productive and usable. But where is the energy being used, how is it being used and is it being used effectively? We have developed a four-step process to help identify where and how your utility dollars are being spent, how we reduce the cost of operations and how can we turn and expenditure into a viable investment.
Step 1: Initial Energy Evaluation
This step allows us to get a quick snapshot of your utility consumption both from a dollar standpoint but more importantly, how and where you use your energy.
We then determine the investment criteria and needs/wants of the customer. This step is a simple conversation with stakeholders to determine what criteria will be used to determine the improvements needed. This process allows us to help identify any existing issues relating to operations and/or maintenance. NO COST.
Step 2: Facility Evaluation
Once the criteria for improvements have been established, we will conduct a site survey to evaluate the facility, equipment and operations. From there, we will narrow the estimated energy savings potential and develop a detailed audit proposal with energy savings projections. NO COST.
Step 3: Detailed Energy Audit
At this step we will have our target savings and potential improvements developed. We will deploy our Energy Engineers to your site for a full engineering analysis of your site and specifics to develop full scope and pricing associated with projects and ROI.
Step 4: Funding & Implementation
Unlike most energy projects, you don’t have to wait 10 years to receive your savings in small monthly amounts. We are so confident in our savings projects; we can pay you your savings up front. We write you a check for the savings, install the improvements, utilize measurement and verification technology to ensure you maximize the savings. NO CAPITAL REQUIRED. You pay for the project over the term and get your savings dollars today where you can use them in any manner you choose.
No capital outlay. No risk.
