SMRI works with the owner, project design and engineering teams and facilities operations personnel to research and identify options that are available in obtaining local utility incentive dollars for energy efficiency, natural gas and cooling tower water conservation. SMRI supports this process on new projects, tenant improvements, retrofits and renewable onsite generation. The funding of these programs are constantly changing, and identifying and applying for these programs demands a well tenured team that provides supporting engineering and documentation to the utility to maximize incentives. Installing the SMRI Permanent Benchmarking tools also ensures payment of these utility incentives in a seamless manner and at no cost.
