Any well designed building will have load loss - these losses come from:

• Line loss 4% - 6%
• Power Factor 10% - 12%
• Service Provided 2% - 4%
• Motors/Equipment 10% - 12%
• Lighting/Electronic Equipment 20% - 30%
• Fuels 10% - 30%

The Energy Group/Elcon Enginneering will audit, identify problems, engineer solutions and implement a turnkey process in both Power and Fuel savings: everything electrical, any type of fossil fuel, and allocating building/tenant charges; reducing usage, costs, consumption and waste. They also can provide forensic verification of results and performance (doing it right is only half the story; being able to prove it is another).
