Three Ways to Start Saving
Whether you have capital budget, no capital budget, or a performance contract already under way, there is a path to BERT. Work with BERT directly or through a BERT partner.
However you buy, start the same way — with a count.
Count what you have by space, send it to BERT, and get a quote with a savings range.
Capital Purchase
Buy the BERT system as a conventional energy-efficiency project. You own the hardware and software license defined in your agreement, with a payback based on modeled or measured savings.
Best for: organizations with available capital that prefer ownership.
Smart Energy Suite
Energy savings as a service with little or no upfront capital and a monthly per-device fee. Guaranteed to cover its monthly fee, and every dollar saved above it stays with you.
Best for: customers without a capital budget.
Through Your ESCO
Add BERT as an energy conservation measure in an energy savings performance contract. BERT has a long history working alongside ESCOs where savings must stand up to engineering review and M&V.
Best for: schools, universities, and public entities with performance contracts.
Utility Incentives Can Lower the Cost
Where an eligible utility incentive or rebate program exists, BERT supports the savings calculations, technical documentation, baseline data, and program review. Incentives are never guaranteed and depend on program rules.
Every Avoided kWh Is Worth More as Rates Rise
BERT turns a previously unmanaged load into a measurable operating-cost reduction across your buildings.
