 Overview
This web page focuses on who can benefit from Savastat Load Compensation System retrofits and new construction integration and provides useful information about the process to help ensure your boiler energy savings projects are successful.
Many buildings still operate their originally installed boiler systems that have over time become inefficient and are in need of optimization. These buildings contain opportunities for high efficiency Savastat system retrofits that will reduce costs, save energy, and improve the environment by reducing greenhouse gases.
Savastat-USA will help you to evaluate and determine what improved boiler energy performance is worth for your company. As someone in business, you know how the desire to increase earnings drives your company. Reducing energy costs can help. Lower energy expenses result in higher earnings that have a market value that can be directly beneficial to your bottom line.

Commercial Buildings
Savastat-USA focuses on energy-efficiency solutions as community solutions. Today, Savastat-USA is reaching out to help communities across the country implement energy-saving solutions.
The Savastat-USA proven system saves money by reducing energy consumption in commercial private sector buildings, including office buildings, retail establishments, hospitals, community centers, hotels, casinos and other types of buildings. Sixty-five percent of commercial buildings in this country were built before 1979 and many are prime candidates for energy-efficiency improvements. In 1997, commercial buildings accounted for about 16 percent of total energy consumption in the U.S. and building owners paid about $100 billion for electricity, natural gas, fuel oil and district heat. Boiler fuel consumption and energy costs could be reduced by an estimated 15-25 percent with the installation of the Savastat Load Compensation Boiler System.
Savastat-USA is reaching out to building owners, property managers, and businesses to help them achieve greater efficiencies in the heating and water heating expenses. We perform boiler energy audits on commercial buildings and provide building owners with reports detailing fuel consumption and greenhouse gas reduction improvements, associated costs and savings, and often, financing options. We are prepared to implement and/or manage the installation of energy-efficiency products.
Savastat-USA is an international leader in the energy-efficiency sector and has teamed with dealers nationwide to implement energy product retrofits in commercial buildings. Energy-efficiency improvements to private sector buildings are good business-and good for business.
Collectively, the nation's 50 state governments and over 10,000 general-purpose local governments spend over $11 billion annually on fixed-site energy costs, with electricity accounting for nearly 75% of that costs. Improved energy efficiency can cut those continuing costs by about 20%, with savings of $2 billion each year. Total investment needed to realize those savings is about $6 billion.

Public Housing
Public housing is found in a broad range of buildings and neighborhoods, from single-family homes in new developments to high-rise apartment buildings of the inner city. Overall, however, it can be defined as residential space occupied by those whose rent is subsidized by government.
Savastat-USA is active in efforts to assist public and assisted housing, where the need is great and the results can be dramatic. Many buildings in this sector have outdated, inefficient heating and energy upgrades can yield substantial savings.
Approximately 1.3 million of these units are located in more than 13,000 public housing developments across the country. Increasingly, downtown revitalization and redevelopment efforts are including neighboring public and assisted housing developments in their plans and Savastat assists in achieving substantial energy savings and greenhouse gas emissions for these projects.
Savastat-USA representatives working in this sector are working towards helping reduce consumption of energy in buildings owned by public housing authorities.

State and Local Government
State and local energy expenditures support applications ranging from office buildings and fire stations to wastewater treatment plants. More than 6 billion square feet of building space falls under the purview of state and local governments. Given the wide variety of buildings and facilities operated by state and local governments, there is no sector-wide "rule of thumb" for energy consumption. However, since energy bills can represent up to 10% of a government's annual operating budget, cost control is a problem shared among governments throughout the country. Recognizing this common problem, Savastat-USA helps state and local managers target, plan and carry out boiler energy improvements that reduce operating expenses and realize savings that benefit taxpayers and reduce dangerous greenhouse gases and help protect the environment.

Colleges and Universities
Environmental Studies or other similar programs on campuses across the country are focusing increasing attention on the environmental status of the campuses where the students actually learn and, in many cases, live. On February 12, 2001, the presidents of all 56 New Jersey colleges and universities endorsed a Sustainability Greenhouse Gas Action Plan for New Jersey that calls for a 3.5 percent reduction in the state's greenhouse gas emissions by the year 2005. Energy and the environment are a concern for many people in higher education today, as they look at current performance and toward needed future improvements and consider what contributions higher education should make.
The potential is high: The potential for energy savings in campus buildings is substantial. The potential fuel energy savings for boilers is 15-25% with approximately the same reduction in greenhouse gases.
With over 1400 accredited universities and colleges, energy-efficiency improvements would impact 17 million students, faculty and staff and over 4 billion square feet of floor space in more than 280,000 buildings; which means that the economic and environmental benefits are important and substantial.
Savastat-USA is achieving important results: Savastat –USA can provide assistance improving facilities, energy savings and reductions, and future energy performance; demonstrating the savings potential for individual campuses and university systems. Help can be provided to make already planned and financed projects achieve as much energy improvement as possible.
Efficiency and improved facilities go hand in hand: Many of our nations institutes of higher learning are facing the challenge of upgrading aging, inefficient buildings under tight budgetary constraints. Colleges have deferred buildings-related work for many years, creating an enormous need for replacement and renovation. Projects range from replacement of entire buildings to upgrade of campus-wide heating distribution systems. Nationally, the cost of addressing this problem is estimated at $26-$33 billion, with the highest costs at research universities and medical colleges. Savastat-USA provides affordable proven solutions that ensure minimum investments with maximum ROI while providing long-term energy savings and reducing greenhouse gases.
