Energy Audits
Local Law 87, utility incentive programs, and financing requirements have made the energy audit the front door to every building-performance decision. We deliver every level of audit, from a one-day walk-through to a bankable Investment Grade Audit, with findings engineered by the same PEs who can design the fix, not just recommend it.
An audit is only as valuable as the decisions it enables. Our reports rank energy conservation measures by real payback, with cost estimates an owner can take to a lender and savings projections that survive measurement and verification.
Our Approach
How We Work
We scale the audit to the decision being made: a Level I walk-through to screen a portfolio, a Level II survey to build a capital plan, a Level III or Investment Grade Audit when financing depends on the numbers. Every level is engineered, not estimated.
- ASHRAE Level I, II, III & Investment Grade Audits (IGA)
- NYC Local Law 87 audit & retro-commissioning filings
- ECM payback analysis with bankable cost estimates
