Using advanced monitoring and data collection techniques along with proprietary software, Practical Energy Solutions generates a "Building Energy Use Report Card" which provides a detailed assessment of your building's current performance from an energy efficiency standpoint. This report card provides a performance rating based on standard benchmarks such as EPA ENERGY STAR ratings, and will tell you how your building compares to similarly used facilities.

We use this information to assist you in matching up your energy usage to your actual building use, to optimize the performance of all of your building systems.

For more details on the specifics of what we do for our clients, go to our Services page.
