What We Do
We think outside the box to solve your organizations complex energy use and maintenance challenges.
LED Lighting
Lighting assessments include:
- Proper light level evaluation
- Updated lighting design
- Fixture selection assistance
- Advanced control selection
Benefits
- Energy efficiency: more light using less energy
- Reduced maintenance costs
- Improved automatic controls
- Full turnkey implementation: 98% of retrofit jobs are done completely turnkey
- Proper OSHA recycling methods
Solar
Assessment Includes:
• Utility bill analysis
• Identifying available local, state and national incentives
• PV - recommendation of array technology including trackers, fixed-ground, non penetrating roof and carport mounts
• Thermal - appropriately sized double-wall heat exchanger with target temperature benefits and the potential to extend boiler life
Reporting Includes:
• Energy modeling, project
feasibility, utility offset and ROI
• Financing options
• Preliminary design and turnkey pricing
• Environmental benefits
Benefits of Solar PV (Electric):
• Reduced energy spend
• Enhanced corporate image
• Clean, renewable source that creates free electricity
• Federal incentives (ITC) with dollar for dollar offset to taxes owed
• Local/State incentives available
• Eligible for immediate property depreciation
Compressed Air
Compressed air assessments include:
- Flow, pressure and power measurements
- Infrastructure, storage and pressure drop testing
- Dewpoint and air quality testing
- Leak detection
- Inappropriate use evaluation and testing
Benefits
- Energy efficiency: ability to maintain pressure with fewer air compressors

Forensic Billing Analysis
Forensic billing analysis includes:
- Examine monthly invoices for billing errors/discrepancies
- Can include bills from electric, natural gas, trash, water, sewer, phone, internet, etc.
Benefits
- Reduced operational costs
- Billing errors can be refunded going 3-4 years back
- Can be performed on or offsite
- Analysis is contingency based
- No payment to Carwell unless there are findings
