In response to their more than $80,000/year utility bill, the LBGC accepted Maryland Green Power’s offer to work pro-bono in evaluating the Club’s energy pitfalls and implement a program to help them become more efficient and significantly cut costs.

Progress on this project so far:

1) Located no-cost electricity provider switch which will save Laurel Boys and Girls Club 8% on their electricity bill immediately;
2) Installed Enigin Eniscope and started metering energy usage in facility’s gymnasium, which contains their largest air conditioning loads: 40 tons of air conditioning. Will commence data logging to develop load profiles and energy usage history for up to 2 years with data stored off-site in redundant storage;
3) Will launch “Energy Buddies” phase in order to implement additional no-cost energy saving solutions.
4) Will publish link to live meter data on this website.

Companies can have their energy bills analyzed for savings for free by faxing all pages of 2-3 months of their electric and gas bills to fax: 443-927-9018, Attn: Free Energy Audit. If selected, we will contact you and send an engineer to your facility for a no-cost energy survey. Please include cover sheet with contact information in order to be considered.
