Kick Your Building Into Shape By Reducing Energy Consumption

As the EPA kicks off the 2011 Energy Star National Buildings Competition, now is the perfect time to kick your building into shape. One of the largest areas you can reduce waste and save money is on energy consumption.

Before you get started, it is important to understand how your building is currently using energy. There are three things you should know about your building's energy use:

1.       How much energy does your building consume in a year and how much does it cost you?
2.       How does this compare to other similar buildings?
3.       What opportunity is there to improve the energy efficiency of your building and save you money?

Stroh Corporation has the ability to perform an Energy Benchmark on your facility.  We take a look at your past energy consumption and compare this to similar buildings across the nation.  This process takes into consideration the outdoor climate, the use of your building, and a number of other factors to calculate your Energy Benchmark Score.

We can use this information to determine how much opportunity your building has to save energy and save money.

For more information on Energy Benchmarks, contact Stroh Corporation at 800-243-8177.
