Commercial Building Energy Audits

Interested in saving energy in your facility? Let Hillmann Energy Consulting help! We’ve performed hundreds of commercial energy audits all over the world. We can perform any type of building energy audit desired, from a preliminary audit to a full-scale investment-grade audit.

There is no better way to save energy in your facility than by having a building energy audit performed.


02

Retrocommissioning (RCx)

Retrocommissioning (RCx) (also known as recommissioning) is the systematic process that optimizes your building controls to improve building systems and operations. Improvements can be seen in energy efficiency, greenhouse gas reduction, safety, comfort, and even equipment lifetimes.

For RCx, the average payback time is only 1.1 years.

03

Energy Consulting for ESCOs

We provide preliminary assessments, investment grade audits, baseline measurements, RCx, commissioning of ECMs, M&V plans and M&V reports for ESCOs — including when your own staff is stretched thin.

Our software is used by nearly all of the large ESCOs in the US, and many in Canada and Australia.


04 / FEATURED

Measurement & Verification

We provide measurement and verification to several ESCOs when they are short of staff. We provide Options A, B, C and D.

Savings that are not measured are savings that can be disputed. Our engineers hold CMVP certifications and write M&V plans and reports that hold up in front of owners, financiers and auditors.


05

Water Auditing Services

Water is often the cheapest utility to save and the easiest to overlook. We meter and analyze domestic, irrigation, cooling tower and process water use, then quantify the fixtures, controls and leaks worth correcting.

06

Green Financing

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac green financing programs require an energy and water audit report before better loan terms are released. We produce the reports these programs accept, on the schedule your lender needs.


07

LEED Services

Hillmann and our strategic partners are here to support your goal of achieving LEED-EB certification. Regardless of whom you choose to facilitate your LEED-EB process, we can integrate our engineering services to help you reduce consumption and cut costs.

06

Utility Bill Auditing

One painless way to reduce energy expenditures is to find and resolve utility billing errors. Using our proprietary utility auditing tools, we can not only find billing errors for you, but can also recover for you the money your utility owes you — all this for a percentage of the funds recovered from the utility.


09

Energy Star Services

We benchmark your portfolio in ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager, correct the property data behind a poor score, and take eligible buildings through certification — including the professional engineer verification the application requires.

10

Compliance Reporting

Benchmarking and disclosure requirements now differ city by city and state by state. We track the deadlines that apply to your buildings, assemble the data, and file on your behalf.
