Winter is Coming: How to Lower Your Business’ Energy Bill During Cold Months
2 min readAs one of the top five operating costs for most businesses, the decisions you make about buying, managing and using energy at your business could have a direct impact on your bottom line.
With winter fast approaching, the energy inefficiencies in your facilities may soon become more apparent than ever. Between poor insulation, drafts or outdated systems, you may find it difficult to keep the temperature up and your costs down when the snow begins to fall.
That being said, it’s unlikely that you—or your team—have the bandwidth to tackle such a project on your own. And realistically, not many companies today have the extra capital to take on all the projects on your to-do list. That’s why Constellation developed the Efficiency Made Easy (EME) program.
Constellation’s EME program empowers customers by providing a series of efficiency upgrades that can include:
- lighting improvements
- electric motors and drives
- water and sewer conservation
- building automation and energy management control systems.
These improvements may give customers immediate cost savings in the form of reduced energy consumption, while also allowing for greater long-term operational control and the ability to reach corporate sustainability efforts too.
Zero-Capital Installation
The program is also conveniently designed to protect your bottom line. The EME program requires no upfront capital, meaning that your company will be able to start reaping the benefits of efficiency updates immediately upon installation.
The program also offers flexible contract terms ranging from 36 to 60 months. You can even delay payments up to 24 months if you’re already under contract with another competitive power or gas supplier. After that time, costs are conveniently included as a separate line item on your power or natural gas bill for easy oversight.
Always on the Cutting Edge
Constellation’s Efficiency Made Easy program leverages Constellation Technology Venture’s portfolio company product offerings, ensuring that the efficiency upgrades made in your facility will be completed with the most innovative technology on the market. From advanced electric vehicle charging stations by ChargePoint, to state-of-the-art HVAC cycling technology and more, you’ll get peace of mind knowing that your facility is a step ahead of the times.
Colder temperatures and higher utility prices may be coming, but our EME program is designed to ensure that even if you’re just starting to think about winterization projects now, you won’t have to suffer through another season with frostbite nipping at your nose. We’re prepared to act quickly to find cost-effective solutions to your energy inefficiencies today.
