Strategic Planning to Improve Energy and Water Efficiency and Meet Science-Based Targets
Finding cost-effective ways to improve energy and water efficiency can be complex and confusing, but Green Econome makes it easy. Through on-site surveys, real-time monitoring, and consulting, we work one-on-one with property owners in Southern California to identify energy inefficiencies and related costs. We collect data to develop a strategic plan for how to improve building performance, reduce energy and water use, and increase the impact of your building’s performance over time. Our goal is to help you meet or exceed your savings objectives.
Our services include utility bill analysis, solar photovoltaic (PV) monitoring, carbon emissions analysis, and data analysis and management. We review your utility bills, then benchmark and audit the property. For more in-depth reporting, we recommend installing real-time energy monitoring for the whole building, or by energy load (we also offer real-time water monitoring solutions). Monthly and quarterly analysis of the energy and solar monitoring data is essential to identify and track whether science-based targets (SBT) are being met.

Marika Erdely and her team at Green Econome epitomize a thoroughly investigative approach to building analysis. Through their in-depth evaluation of utility costs, building systems and operations, and extended contacts in the industry, they were able to find substantial savings that were available to us, including a significant utility overcharge that was buried in the billings for years. A fact which other consultants and experts had failed to find in previous evaluations. Marika and her team are professional, knowledgeable; working with them is a pleasure.
