Expert compliance and energy savings
Greenwich Energy Solutions offers a complete solution to meet the demands of Local Law 87. We provide a streamlined, two-part process that ensures your building complies with the law while operating more efficiently. Our team, which includes a certified energy manager and experienced energy engineers, will perform a thorough energy audit to analyze your building's energy usage and identify areas for improvement. We will then conduct a detailed retro-commissioning study of your base building systems, such as lighting, HVAC, and domestic hot water.
Once these steps are completed, we will deliver a comprehensive energy efficiency report and retro-commissioning report that is ready for submission. These reports will not only inform building owners about their current energy performance but also outline specific energy saving measures and operational changes to reduce energy usage.
