Retro-commissioning (RCx)

The centerpiece of GSE’s vision to get you where you want to go. This service can take many forms but at its core is process improvement for your facility that will reduce your energy cost dramatically while improving operations and occupant comfort. GSE’s experience in this area includes utility retro-commissioning program survey/reporting provided at no cost to you that seek to identify low-cost/no-cost improvement opportunities as well as comprehensive start-to-finish retro-commissioning services that take you from the preliminary survey through implementation and verification of energy and cost savings.

Energy Management & Master Planning

A comprehensive approach matched with your business objectives. This starts with determining what you are doing today and identifying improvement objectives and goals. Long term, this includes all elements of your energy picture from commodity procurement to end-use standards and optimization. In addition to facilitating the development of your Master Plan, GSE can help with specific initiatives along the way.

  • Energy Audits – identify specific opportunities for cost savings, the level of detail depends on the objective. This begins with prioritizing your facilities through a benchmarking process and commodity rate structure analysis using metrics pursuant to your business objectives. GSE can follow accepted standard energy audit processes that are well-defined such as ASHRAE Level I, II, and III or create an approach that includes elements of these as-needed to meet your specific needs and preferences. Contact Us for more information.
  • Measurement & Verification (M&V) – supports process improvement by providing a metric for results. It starts at the beginning but at the end of the day, a good M&V plan allows you to tell your story and manage the risk associated with improvement steps. GSE has many years of experience applying standardized M&V strategies as well as creating custom plans matched to the level of investment risk.
  • Third-party ESPC / Design / M&V Review – when the availability of funding improvement projects internally falls short of the need, then an energy saving performance contract (ESPC) may be the answer. GSE can help you navigate the world of ESPC’s and provide the services along the way that ensure success.
