Energy efficiency can be mined just like any other resource. |

You are over-spending on energy right now. Energy is not getting any cheaper so it makes sound business sense to tap all the energy efficiencies you can as soon as practicable. Every dollar returned from efficiencies goes directly to the bottom line. Energy efficiency is the quickest, cheapest, and cleanest way to reduce energy use and lower greenhouse gas emissions.
Our Mission: Immediate and large scale carbon emission reductions for businessRather than building extra power plants large amounts of ‘virtual generation’ can be tapped by reducing demand through energy efficiency. This can be achieved with devices such as Power Saver, PowerBoss Eluma, PowerBoss Integra, LED lighting, T5 adaptors and a range of other options. Why Energy Efficiency? Cash Flow- Energy efficiency has a negative cost, that is it provides a cash income to those who harvest it.
- Energy efficiency is the quickest, cheapest, and cleanest way to reduce energy use and lower greenhouse gas emissions.
- Some of the greatest benefits come from efficiencies that are the easiest to implement.
Source: McKinsey Report It is the most effective way to reduce emissionsThe international Energy Agency (IEA) highlights that energy efficiency has met more of the growth in energy demand in the past 30 years than any other source. It is the dominant ‘fuel’ of the developed world. The IEA expects improvements in end use energy efficiency to be responsible for more than half the carbon dioxide emission reductions in the next 30 years. Without energy efficiency demand would be 58% higher today.

‘Green’ Building Retrofits To Be 20-30% of Commercial Projects By 2014 |
|
October 23, 2009
According to a new SmartMarket report from McGraw-Hill Construction the green retrofit and renovation market activity is set to grow to 20-30 percent by 2014, making it a $10 billion to $15 billion market in the USA for major retrofit projects.
The report, Green Building Retrofit Renovation: Rapidly Expanding Market Opportunities Through Existing Buildings, profiles more than 20 American projects that provide insight into the growing green building industry. Researchers say that market opinion and indicators suggest much higher levels of activity long-term for retrofits and renovations overall, which is expected to reach a tipping point in 10 to 15 years. At this time, half of all retrofits and renovations will be green, according to the report.
