A significant part of our business consists of consulting for California Utilities. We support emerging technology assessments, RD&D projects, program planning and evaluation, market research, and many other tasks.
Our activities can be end-to-end or embedded with a larger team. We can do project planning, project execution, and results publication, or all the above. We are equipped and staffed for commissioning, EM&V, data analysis, on-demand management support, and then some.
We have Mechanical Engineer (PE) on staff, so we are well positioned to take care of your Title 24, Title 20, CALGreen, or other compliance concerns.
We use EnergyPlus, OpenStudio, and CBECC Software to help you right-size mechanical systems, predict operating cost, process incentives, and compare design alternatives.
Our expertise includes advising you about which system components and energy sources to use. This goes well beyond HVAC - building envelope and lighting always need careful consideration as well.
Thinking of taking your building to the next level? Our staff has project experience even with complex projects such as government buildings, shopping malls and then some. We will gladly take your project all the way to certification, or work on just the tricky energy prerequisites and credits.
One of our staff is a Certified Building Commissioning Professional, and we meet all the requirements to act as your Commissioning Agent for Enhanced Commissioning. Of course, we can also help commission your building if you are not pursuing LEED.
