PECO recognizes Firm for Largest Energy Efficiency Project by kWh savings
/Practical Energy Solutions, a Division of Spotts, Stevens and McCoy was recognized this week at the PECO Trade Ally meeting for their work on the largest energy efficiency project of 2020 by kWh savings achieved.
The project was conducted at the Philadelphia 201 Hotel, with the rebate paid by PECO. The rebate was earned for modifications made to the exhaust fans/hood in the kitchen (variable speed drives) and additions of CO sensors for the exhaust fans in the parking garage that resulted in the fans running only when carbon monoxide was sensed, rather than 24/7.
The Trade Ally project is part of the PECO Smart Ideas program that helps businesses reduce energy use by providing incentives and rebates to customers to improve energy efficiency. The PES team became a Trade Ally to help clients better understand the energy incentives that are available that can help offset the costs of energy-efficient building system upgrades. These solutions can include HVAC and controls upgrades, high efficiency lighting projects or customized energy strategy implementations. In an every-changing marketplace, PES acts as an energy advocate for clients, developing the appropriate energy solution, and navigating the process to obtain rebates and incentives for those energy saving solutions.
