Governmental Bodies & Schools
Navigating the transition to renewables
We can help you upgrade your facilities, develop and communicate your policies, programs, and services. Retrofitting your buildings with heat pumps and/or solar panels will reduce your facilities operating expenses. Heat pumps can be air source or ground source (geothermal). Geothermal ones used to cost more than air source ones due to the expense of installing the loop system. BUT NOW, in New York State only, they can be equal to or cost less since these capital improvement investments can be reimbursed with federal (direct pay) and utility rebates. See incentives.
