HOME : THE DIFFERENCE : ENERGY SUSTAINABILITY
HERE TODAY.
SUSTAINABLE TOMORROW.
ENVIRONMENTAL AND ECONOMIC BALANCE
Competitive market and regulatory pressures due to climate change and sustainability continue to intensify. Businesses today must balance appropriate stewardship with economic viability. Organizations continue to be pressed by investors, media and customers to drive sustainable business practices. With energy being a significant contributor to carbon emissions, it is important for organizations to effectively plan and manage their energy spend.
Often critical to the success of a sustainability program is the implementation of energy efficiency projects and effective demand side management. Energy efficiency projects work best when evaluated within the context of a strong supply-side strategy. In keeping with our holistic approach to energy management, Summit has in-house experts dedicated to client energy efficiency projects and uses its proprietary Consumption Workshop service offering to drive actionable projects that can yield bottom line savings through reduced energy usage.
In addition to energy efficiency, Summit leads clients to informed decisions and cost effective activities to drive sustainable business practices such as:
- Sustainability strategy planning
- Greenhouse gas (GHG) / carbon emissions inventory reporting
- Green or renewable energy procurement
- Renewable project installations (solar, wind, or biomass)
- Global carbon management (offsets, allowances, credits)
- EPA EnergyStar program support
- Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) guidance
- Corporate communications
