Energy Engineering Consulting

Trident conducts facility energy audits, calculates baseline energy performance and greenhouse gas emissions, determines potential opportunities for improving energy use, and works with these organizations throughout the implementation process.  Being well versed with a wide variety of financing mechanisms, Trident works diligently with all of our clients to ensure that each client receives appropriate funds to supplement or cover projects costs. 

Main Street Efficiency Initiative for the Governors Energy Office (currently the Colorado Energy Office) 

The Main Street Efficiency Initiative used American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds to match local funding opportunities to reduce energy costs for local businesses, create local jobs, and reduce carbon emissions. Trident managed and helped administer four Main Street Energy Initiative programs on behalf of the Colorado Governors Energy Office (currently the Colorado Energy Office). Trident offered a range of services to help with implementation that included outreach and communication, utility bill analyses, review of utility-conducted energy audits, identification and assistance with utility sponsored rebates and other incentive programs, contractor evaluation, and savings quantification. As support to the GEO, Trident also created a roadmap and basic training for developing and implementing local Main Street programs throughout all of Colorado and performed extensive program reporting for the Department of Energy. 

SAVEnergy audits for Federal Energy Management Program

The purpose of the SAVEnergy program was to help federal facilities reach the target goal of 30% less energy use by 2010 under the Energy Policy Act of 1992 and Executive Order 13123. The audits summarized the results from energy and water saving measures and renewable energy projects.  Trident calculated energy and water consumption values before and after upgrades took place and the greenhouse gas emission reductions from each measure. Trident also worked with the agency to determine the financial impact from each measure, assisted in locating funding sources to supplement the project cost, and provided support through the ongoing verification process.
