GreenPath Energy Solutions Awarded a Raymond James Financial Contract
ORLANDO, Fla. – Orlando-based GreenPath Energy Solutions has been selected to perform a comprehensive energy study for Raymond James Financial.
In the study, GreenPath will identify all energy conservation measures (ECMs) and prioritize these measures with a reasonable rate of return that Raymond James can use to help reduce energy use and operational expenditures at their 44-acre corporate headquarters campus in St. Petersburg; specifically focusing on the campus’ four office towers, two parking garages, site lighting, and commercial bank, all totaling over 1 million square feet.
“The energy audit will identify all potential energy and cost saving opportunities that offer positive life cycle savings to the campus facilities including any problems with electrical, water, lighting, and mechanical systems. In addition, our team will enter all utility data into the USEPA Portfolio Manager Tool and perform energy utilization index (EUI), cost index (CI), and benchmark analysis for each site,” said Samuel Graham, GreenPath’s president.
“When completed, the company will have a comprehensive energy study of their corporate headquarters campus and recommended energy conservation measures (ECMs) that will reduce energy use and operational expenditures as well as an overall assessment of the company’s various energy consumption systems and equipment,” said Graham.
“We’re very excited to be able to provide these kinds of services to area businesses who are not only interested in saving money, but who truly want to help the environment,” he said.
GreenPath Energy Solutions has been a client of the University of Central Florida’s Business Incubation Program in Orlando since March of 2010, according to Melissa Wasserman, site manager for the incubator located on East Colonial Drive.
