It's Cheaper to SAVE a unit of energy than it is to create one...
Researching energy efficiency can sometimes be like the world of diet and nutrition... it can be very difficult to sort the sales from the science. Everyone claims to have the best advice, the best product or the best methods leaving the consumer more confused than when they started!!
As part of our focus to provide our clients with unbiased options and advise on energy management, Shift Energy provides Project Management services for our commercial clients, in addition to complete energy auditing services for residential, commercial, institutional and municipal clients.
Our technicians are BPI certified and we have relationships with all major State Organizations and Utilities in New England to help ensure that your projects capitalize from any available cash rebates, incentives, tax credits and deductions.
We specialize in creating action plans - not just reports... While our audits and recommendations are backed by the latest diagnostic tools and energy modeling software, our focus is to provide a step-by-step implementation plan on how you can reduce your energy consumption with cost proposals and our own crews to perform the work if desired.

Low Hanging Fruit...
Many buildings today are over-consuming energy in a lot of very obvious ways that represent low cost/fast payback efficiency upgrades.
As with almost any situation in life, 80% of the production comes from 20% of the work - and so it is with energy. It's likely that 80% of the savings you realize in your energy upgrades comes from 20% of the cost of doing these upgrades. This is what we'd refer to as the low hanging fruit. We provide low cost building audits to allow our clients the ability to obtain a brush-stroke analysis of their building with the intent to "get cracking on the upgrades as quickly as possible". If you're interested in this approach, give us a call and we can discuss further.

10% GSF = 70% Consumption
Many institutional clients with a multitude of buildings, occupants and energy needs struggle with the fact that quite often 50%-70% of their energy and carbon consumption results from just 10% of their gross square footage or 10% of their operations.
If your facility or campus fits this description, we should talk.
