Celebrate Earth Day 2023 by reducing electricity usage in your commercial buildings

This Saturday is Earth Day 2023, which, according to National Geographic is “an annual celebration that honors the achievements of the environmental movement and raises awareness of the need to protect Earth’s natural resources for future generations”.

At NexRev we are focused on monitoring and, most importantly, reducing the amount of electricity used in commercial buildings. From retail stores, to movie theaters, gyms and warehouses, there is energy waste across their footprints.

NexRev’s stats are impressive: More than five billion kWh of energy saved by our customers which has reduced their energy costs by over $1 billion– and saves over two billion kg of CO2 emissions.   

We are focused on measurable results, actionable insights, and helping organizations to identify new energy optimization opportunities.

Your quick fire questions for Earth Day

To mark Earth Day, we have a few questions for any organization with commercial buildings. Do you:

  • Realize that HVAC systems account for around 40% of commercial building’s energy use?
  • Agree that reducing this energy use is a necessary step in your journey to be a more sustainable business?
  • Know how to optimize your existing electrical equipment to minimize energy consumption?
  • Have an Energy and Building Management System (EMS / BMS)? And, if so, are you certain that it is reducing the amount of electricity used to operate commercial buildings – and monitoring that reduction?

If the answer to any of these questions is no, then please read on…
