With the fast-paced and ever changing nature of energy conservation projects, Brewer-Garrett is on the cutting edge of new technologies. For example, traditional solar power projects require expensive photovoltaic panels connected to a facility’s main electrical service, which generates electricity to offset the total electrical consumption. Recently, however, Brewer-Garrett has identified a number of stand-alone solar technologies which, when combined with recent innovations in battery technology, can produce enough power to operate various types of equipment in remote locations. Coupled with wireless communication technology, many of these new products require no electrical feed wiring. Thus, not only is the purchase of electricity completely eliminated, but an opportunity to highlight alternative technologies in a number of locations on one campus is possible.
Additionally, Brewer-Garrett has been working with a number of innovative technologies which elevate energy efficiency for sanitary and office purposes. Many of these new technologies are not only extremely energy efficient, reducing both energy consumption and waste generation, but also generate large operational savings and may qualify a site for additional LEED points. We have even identified ways to reduce energy consumption and waste production from day-to-day workplace functions. With technology changing rapidly, Brewer-Garrett is committed to staying in front of the curve in energy conservation.
Outdated systems have a host of issues including high energy costs, high maintenance costs, occupant comfort issues and more. Energy saving technologies implemented and serviced by The Brewer-Garrett Company address these issues by improving comfort conditions, providing significant energy savings and reducing maintenance costs.
