Optimum Energy, the leading provider of data-driven HVAC energy optimization for enterprise facilities, today celebrates the milestone of saving 200 million kilowatt hours of energy for its customers. Since 2005, Optimum Energy has been committed to helping subscribers reduce their energy footprint, and build a path forward together to streamline HVAC systems operations and achieve their ongoing sustainability targets.
“Two hundred million kilowatt hours of energy saved is equivalent to the greenhouse gas emissions from nearly 50,000 tons of waste sent to a landfill” said Matt Frey, President and CEO of Optimum Energy, “That’s pretty significant, and we’re proud that corporate sustainability has been the cornerstone of our business model from day one.”
To date, Optimum Energy’s solutions have created significant savings for subscribers, including:
• Successful deployment of HVAC energy optimization in over 70 million square feet of commercial space
• Customers have reduced CO2 emissions by over 137,000 metric tons, which is equivalent to taking almost 30,000 cars off the road a year
• Customers have saved over 42 million gallons of water with Optimum Energy
Optimum Energy has enabled a variety of customers to maximize their investments in heating and cooling systems. For example, the University of Texas at Austin has reduced its annual energy consumption by 21,000,000 kWh, the equivalent of annual CO2 emissions from the average energy use in 1,321 residences. Additionally, UT Austin has lowered its operating expenses by $1.5 million per year, and received a simple payback on its initial investment with Optimum Energy in 12 months time.
