Are you aware of your energy use?

Are you aware of your energy use patterns? Every business will likely see fluctuations in energy use from seasonal heating and cooling needs, lighting adjustments and even the number of employees in your facility.

An improperly calibrated sensor or a slight change in your processes can impact your energy consumption more than you might think. That can increase your energy bill and your environmental emissions.

So, what can you do? To control your energy use, you have to be aware of it first. Sign up to use the ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager™. You can input your facility data and track your energy use. Benchmark yourself against past years or similar facilities. See how routine maintenance, process adjustments or equipment upgrades affect your facility's energy use.

Your energy bills are one of the few expenses your facility has the power to change. Take the opportunity to reduce your energy waste. It's not just better for the Earth, it's better for your bottom line.
