Seinergy LLC is an energy and utility consulting company with a focus on indoor horticulture efficiency programs and policy. On a day-to-day basis, Seinergy conducts cost benefit analysis on behalf of its clients, taking into account different state and federal regulations, a working understanding of cutting edge LED grow equipment, and utility-specific program guidelines and pitfalls to maximize our clients’ relationship with their utility providers. A client in New Jersey enlisted Seinergy to perform a cost-benefit analysis for selecting dehumidifier units to be installed in their new facility. Although the two units under consideration had similar upfront costs and provided comparable net dehumidification capacity, Seinergy’s analysis factored in the NJ Clean Energy custom program, which sets a high baseline for energy efficiency. By comparing the incremental efficiency of each unit against this baseline, Seinergy identified that one unit was significantly more efficient, resulting in a substantially higher rebate, increasing the client’s incentive from approximately $17,000 to over $38,000. The cost-benefit analysis revealed that despite similar initial costs, the more efficient unit offered a far greater financial return through energy savings and a higher rebate, making it the optimal choice for the client. Another example is, Seinergy has saved clients hundreds of thousands in electricity costs by evaluating utility bills and identifying potential billing errors, analyzing inconsistencies, advocating for competitive power supply, service upgrades and tariff shifts, and lobbying for retroactive sales tax exemptions. Even when clients are confident they are paying the correct rates, it still pays to conduct cost-benefit-analysis. At the very least, even if no obvious cost cutting solutions are found, the client can rest easy knowing they have confirmed there are no simple cost-saving measures. Engaging with industry experts like Seinergy, who know when to conduct cost-benefit analyses, is essential to uncover hidden costs (Capital, Operational, Environmental) and identify unrealized benefits (Efficiency Gains, Cost Savings, etc.) By utilizing an expert, clients are free to focus on their core mission and rest easy knowing they are getting the best possible deal.
