"Since
we began retrofitting facilities in September of 1997 until the end of
April 2005, the University of Manitoba has saved over $19M on utilities.
My Metrix energy accounting experience has been extremely successful!"

There are a few different ways that we can help you save energy. One of our main methods of saving energy is by studying your utility bills to understand your energy usage patterns. From these patterns, we can make decisions on not only where to reduce your energy usage, but also when.
If you'd prefer to be your own energy manager, we sell software that can help you make excellent energy management decisions. We sell all the leading energy management software: Metrix 4, EnergyCAP, and Energy Expert, along with training on how to use them. For utility bill auditing, look at Metrix 4 or EnergyCAP. For utility interval data (such as that from submeters), look into Energy Expert.
If you don't want to perform the energy analysis yourself, we'd be more than happy to do it for you. Utility Bill Auditing »
Another way we save energy in buildings is by performing an energy audit. Energy auditing has become a large part of our business here, and we like to think that we're pretty good at it. We've done hundreds, if not thousands of energy audits all over the world, and all of our auditors are fully certified for the job. More About Energy Auditing »

"The onsite Metrix software training we received was right on target and gave us just what we needed. Now we are able to track, analyze, and report our utilities more efficiently and effectively than ever. Also, while on campus John audited our HVAC controls and numerous AHU’s and identified several very low cost ECM’s worth an estimated $130k/yr in savings. Within days we were able to implement one ECM that is already saving the University $70k/yr."
