Unlock sustainability and savings benefits
While keeping your business running smoothly
Improved energy efficiency is the foundation of a successful carbon emissions reduction strategy, offering long-term cost savings and facility enhancements, while our turn-key resiliency solutions help businesses maintain productivity and profitability in the face of extreme weather events and grid outages by enabling greater control over energy usage and ensuring business continuity.
Energy Efficiency starts here
Organizations recognize that there are substantial efficiencies and savings to be gained when it comes to energy consumption at their facilities. However, internal inertia most often seems to prevent them from realizing the many benefits of energy efficiency gains. This usually arises from a lack of effective efficiency program structures – structures that are designed to overcome internal inertia and enable the identification, screening, evaluation, selection, and execution of viable energy efficiency projects.
We can help organizations overcome this inertia that inhibits efficiency gains by instituting and operating a rigorous and complete Energy Efficiency Program Management Framework, thus unlocking sustainability and cost savings benefits from reduced energy consumption.
Our program framework is built on five key components:
Our energy experts work with you to develop a framework that fits your organization’s needs and objectives across your portfolio and to deliver strategies and solutions that prioritize options for greatest impact. We specialize in a variety of services to help you get there, including:
- Establishing objectives and commitments
- Development of a project evaluation framework
- Establishment of agency, authority and organization structures to support the energy efficiency program
- Accountability through transparent reporting and evaluation
- Implementation of prioritized energy efficiency measures
The EE program also utilizes our robust data analytics platform which helps benchmark portfolio sites against each other as well as other similar businesses in their sector. Building upon the insights delivered through the portfolio analytics, our facility analytics module can identify potential improvement opportunities through assessment of interval usage data patterns and deviations from expected normal.
Improve reliability through on-site generation
With zero upfront capital and optimized savings through market operations
While power disruptions seem to occur more frequently these days, they are inevitable and costly to your business. When equipment loses power, it can have significant impact to your bottom line when productivity, inventory, and revenue are lost. Our energy experts provide turnkey, customized resiliency solutions, to minimize the negative impact outages can have on your profitability.
The best part? Not only will you keep your operation running smoothly, you will also have the opportunity to generate revenue & slash costs through energy market participation powered by our in-house market & dispatch operations expertise and capabilities. Plus, you get the resiliency you need at a lower cost without any up-front capital or labor.
Optimize your existing assets
And make it work to reduce your energy spend
Organizations with existing energy assets such as back up engines and cogeneration facilities can benefit substantially by partnering with OnSite Partners to enhance the operations of their assets to drive maximum value.
We help clients optimize the daily operation of their existing cogeneration assets through analysis of their steam and power consumption load profile, together with daily gas and power market trends, to advise on when to operate the asset as a steam generation unit vs. electricity, so as to realize the maximum benefit from their investment.
Clients with back up generation installed can also derive significant additional value through market operations such as peak load shaving and economic demand response, all powered by OnSite’s substantial expertise and experience in driving savings and revenue via advanced asset operations.
An alternate clean source of energy through Fuel Cells
Natural gas fuel cells convert generate electricity through chemical reaction with oxygen, producing heat and water as byproducts. This not only provides a demand reduction option for your facility but also provides your business with the security of resiliency. Plus, the best part of it is its environmentally clean by-products, meaning the asset contributes towards reducing your Scope 2 carbon footprint.
We can implement a fuel cell at your location for no upfront capital and operate it for you, while your business realizes the stated benefits. All we need is a little space in your backyard or parking lot, and you can get the benefits of reliability that a generator provides, alongside emissions reductions from a solar array and/or a battery energy storage system – all in one package.
Reduced emissions and cost savings
Through heat recovery from exhaust stacks
If your process utilizes furnaces, boilers and engines that generate heat which is eventually dissipated through exhaust stack, then you may be losing out on opportunities to reduce GHG emissions and operating costs. Utilizing waste heat recovery systems like economizers, this energy can help capture the heat from the exhaust and transfer it for utilization for various purposes like generating steam, space heating, or electricity generation.
We can help implement a heat stack recovery system which will not only be a source of energy, thus reducing costs, but also can reduce your energy consumption and thus your overall environmental impact.
