From single system energy assessments to clean energy master plans and net-zero energy analysis: Our team provides a comprehensive array of services custom-tailored to our client’s needs.

ASHRAE level energy studies are one of our team’s particular strengths. Our engineers have completed thousands of energy evaluations and studies, and we are experts in performing walk-through, preliminary, detailed, and investment-grade energy audits.

Our methodology provides the appropriate level of project detail consistent with facility usage, size, equipment, systems, complexities, and potential energy conservation measures. Our reports assist in making informed decisions about implementing energy efficiency improvements and are written to be easily understandable by non-technical personnel.

To document and justify proposed energy savings, C.J. Brown Energy has developed an extensive library of energy conservation calculations/spreadsheets based on ASHRAE standards and accepted engineering practices. We are also skilled in the use of various modeling software and energy analysis tools.

Energy Programs we participate in:

NYSERDA
