How to achieve your energy goals

Alpine Flamingo can help you understand what energy supply, energy management, and energy-using device options are available and relevant to your location, your costs, and your objectives.

Step 1: Detailed analysis

Understand your situation

What are your goals?  What are your total cost goals, facility reliability goals, and greenhouse gas goals? 

What are your costs?  How is your energy use metered?  

What are your options to buy electricity or gas?  What are your options for on-site or off-site electric generation?

What amounts of energy do you use, at what times of day and during which seasons?  What are your total greenhouse gas emissions across all energy types and uses?

For what purposes do you use energy?  How much electricity, gas, hot water and steam do you need?

Questions like these need to be answered to start developing  a comprehensive energy plan.

We can work with you to select the right technologies, combinations of technologies, and purchasing strategies…and we can continue to work with you to implement your strategy.

Step 2: Implementation

Develop a feasible plan based on your goals & options

Based on your goals, costs and funding options, and energy supply options, we can help you to develop and implement a plan to achieve your energy goals.

Which technologies will be most helpful to you?  Do you need to improve basic systems like metering or lighting?  What advanced systems should you consider?

What additional benefits (e.g., low maintenance costs, improved facility comfort, improved equipment performance) would you get if you used certain energy- or carbon-reducing technologies?

What are the cost and benefit tradeoffs between technology choices that are relevant to you?

How can you acquire renewable energy?  What are the net cost and carbon implications of using waste-to-energy systems?
