Energy-Efficiency Assessments for Business Customers

Find out how our energy-efficiency assessments can help you identify improvements for your business.

If you're one of our existing business customers using 250,000 therms a year or more, you could receive a no-cost, energy-efficiency assessment and evaluation of your complex energy-efficiency projects by engineers who are qualified by the Department of Energy (DOE).

Energy-efficiency Incentives

We'll show you how your energy-efficiency projects may qualify for cash payments that could reach up to $1 million per project, and up to $2 million per premise, per year.

Customized Analysis

We'll make site visits and offer expert analyses about saving energy with virtually any industrial use of natural gas, including:

  • Process heating and steam systems
  • Natural gas engines
  • Air compressors
  • Oxidizers
  • Steam turbine drives

Diagnostic Tools

We'll make field observations and use software modeling/simulation tools to prepare detailed assessments of your site's existing energy use. We'll also forecast your potential costs and savings. Our tools include:

  • Process Heating Assessment and Survey:This identifies energy efficiency opportunities by modeling individual pieces of heating equipment and calculates projected costs and benefits.
  • Steam System Assessment: This simulates changes in process steam systems and quantifies potential changes in cost, energy use and emissions. It includes a steam demand savings project, a user-defined fuel model, a boiler stack loss worksheet, a boiler flash steam recovery model and improved steam trap models.
