No-Cost Energy Audits

To maintain quality work standards
and optimize the return on your investment,
you’ll have your own personal program delivery
contractor, or PDC. These highly skilled, industry-specific
specialists know what works in your business
and how to capitalize on energy-saving opportunities.
They can help you by:
- Conducting scoping studies
to determine the most profitable upgrades
- Developing specifications
for energy-saving projects
- Evaluating contractor
bids for installation
- Overseeing installation
and verification of the project
- Facilitating paperwork
associated with program incentives
- Assisting with the application
for Oregon Business Energy Tax Credits
Our experts can examine your
facility’s operations and energy usage, and
identify ways to save you money and energy.
Note: financial incentives
will be calculated on an individual, case-by-case
basis.
Installation and Project
Management
No time to start? No problem.
Simply let us know you’d like to save money,
and the PDC will analyze how your business
uses energy, identify opportunities for energy
savings, and recommend improvements that fit
your unique needs. Energy Trust will pay up
to the entire study’s cost, too.
To make sure that the electric
energy savings are accurate and the installation
cost is fair, the PDC will review the proposal’s
scope of work to ensure that the proposed project
is based on sound technical assumptions and
the electric energy savings projections are
reasonable.
With your approval, the PDC
can assist in presenting his or her findings
to the key decision makers in your company
for you – while you concentrate on your business.
What’s more, PDCs oversee installation and
verification of projects and complete all the
paperwork necessary to ensure timely payment
of your incentives.
Post-installation
Inspections
Let us make sure the work
was done right. In order to maintain a high
standard of quality, the PDC conducts post-installation
inspections of projects. PDCs can create a
plan designed to ensure that you and your facility’s
team understand how to properly use equipment
to maximize energy savings. PDCs can prepare
a Production Commissioning Oversight Plan for
complex installations, oversee the commissioning
process, and make sure the plan adequately
addresses equipment startup and operator training.
