Energy Efficiency Doesn't Cost. It Pays.
|
Energy savings should be considered as source of new cash flow and ultimately a direct contribution to a business's working capital. There are many means for organizations to finance energy upgrades - even through the savings realized afterward!

The Often Overlooked Expense: The Cost of Waiting
 When deciding the merits of an energy efficiency project, the financial benchmark most organizations often rely upon is the payback calculation. But in the case of energy upgrades what often gets overlooked when using only this calulation are the cumulative costs of maintaining the status quo. Each day your business is operating inefficiently is a day you're paying the utilities for unnecessary killo-watt hours or therm units.
These are real dollars that organizations are losing to the cost of waiting. When the decision is made to postpone or reject an energy efficiency improvement and continue using current inefficient technology, an organization effectively forfeits the potential savings. These forfeited savings stay on the loss side of your P&L. These potential savings are paid back to the utilities - effectively, an annual premium owed for doing nothing.
With the robust energy reduction incentives available from ComEd, Nicor and the DCEO, a typical lighting upgrade often delivers a simple payback in 1 to 3 years. If you have been considering an energy reduction project for your facility, please take a moment to contact us. Our energy consultants can help guide you through the available incentives, technology choices and installation options. Each day that passes can either be a day of adding to your cash flow or to the annuity paid to the utilities.
