Saving energy is more than good practice — it’s a smart way to cut costs and stay competitive. Utility bills can add up to thousands each year, especially in larger offices or older buildings that aren’t energy efficient.
In fact, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) reports that many small businesses occupy buildings under 50,000 square feet, and together, these smaller spaces account for 44 percent of all U.S. commercial building energy use. That means even modest-sized offices can have an outsized impact on both the environment and their own utility expenses.
Luckily, there are simple steps you can take to bring energy use under control. Conserving energy lowers overhead costs, reduces your carbon footprint and can even give you a public relations boost when you share your efforts with customers and the community.
