Strategic Building Electrification

PictureImage from Shutterstock
Strategic building electrification is the thoughtful shift of space and water heating from fuel-burning technologies such as gas-fired furnaces to electrically powered technologies such as heat pumps at opportune times that make economic and business sense.

Electrified heating technologies have come a long way in the past 20 years. Cold climate air-source heat pumps and ground-source heat pump technologies available on the market today can provide comfortable space heating down to sub-zero (Fahrenheit) outdoor air temperatures, and electric heat pump water heaters now available from most major manufacturers deliver cost-effective water heating with energy consumption as little as 1/3 that of their traditional gas-fired counterparts.

Strategic electrification of our buildings' space and water heating needs is a critical step towards decarbonizing the built environment. If you or your organization have sustainability goals or benchmarks to meet, strategic building electrification deserves some attention as a viable path towards meeting or even exceeding such goals.

To get started with strategic electrification of your building:
  1. Have aging gas-fired rooftop units, water heaters, boilers, or unit heaters.
  2. Contact Us to learn more about your options. We can calculate your energy and cost savings, recommend new designs and specific equipment, and guide you through the caveats.
  3. Leave the implementation and project management to BEE. We will contract, schedule, and commission the installation work.
  4. Enjoy the proven health, economic, and work productivity benefits of electrification.
  5. Recognize and share that you are a leader in the shift towards a healthier and more sustainable built environment.
