Existing Buildings

Ethos is committed to supporting your building at every stage of its lifecycle. We begin by conducting a thorough energy audit, adhering to ASHRAE Level I, II, or III standards. Following the audit, Ethos outlines a clear path forward for each building. We then perform an electrification feasibility report to evaluate whether electrification or enhancements to your current system offer the most effective solution. Concurrently, Ethos collaborates closely with building owners, managers, and engineers to develop comprehensive operational and maintenance plans or upgrade strategies. These plans are meticulously explained to ensure they are well understood by the owner and implemented effectively. Finally, Ethos assists in securing rebates related to energy improvements or replacements, maximizing your return on investment in building upgrades. Trust Ethos to assess your building's current Energy Use Intensity (EUI) and guide you towards reducing it to avoid fines, as well as navigating options for Credit Reductions to maintain compliance.

 

New Buildings

While new buildings may present fewer challenges than existing ones, they come with unique energy targets and considerations. Ethos collaborates closely with project teams to conduct energy modeling as needed, ensuring optimal building design rather than relying on a prescriptive approach. This holistic strategy and detailed energy modeling allow for flexibility in energy usage—delivering efficiency where needed and savings where possible. Ethos is dedicated to ensuring owners see returns on their energy efficiency investments. Therefore, we offer commissioning throughout the design phase to ensure all systems are installed and operate as intended. We recognize that achieving energy savings hinges on the quality and proper functioning of equipment.
