Kuhn & Kuhn is focused on dramatically reducing client energy costs while improving facility performance. We offer energy conservation and cogeneration expertise, objective evaluations of energy saving measures, and a hands-on approach to applying the appropriate technology for each project.

• Energy surveys / audits — Analyze the energy use in a facility or process, evaluate alternative ways to improve efficiency, estimate costs and savings, recommend best strategies
• Energy project evaluations — Independent reviews of proposed energy conservation measures, demand reduction strategies, or generation projects
• Alternative gas and electric rate analysis — Determine whether switching to a different natural gas or electricity rate will save money for a facility
• Contract development — Technical scopes for operation, maintenance, and performance contracts, especially between energy service providers and host facilities
• Performance reviews — Review operating data from thermal and electrical metering systems, bills, logs, and contracts to assess actual performance of an energy project, to determine actual savings/earnings and identify avenues for improvement
• Environmental permitting — Technical assistance for permitting and permit compliance, calculations of emission levels and impacts on air quality, analysis of greenhouse gas emissions, evaluation of alternatives for control and offsets
• PURPA compliance calculations — Calculation of efficiency and operating standards for cogeneration systems
• Project design and construction assistance — Preparation of bid-ready plans and specifications, development of design-build specifications, sequence of operations, commissioning specifications, performance testing methods, construction monitoring, thermal and electrical performance testing, technical assistance in resolution of completion issues
• Operation monitoring — Review of thermal and electrical metering data, review of energy bills and contractor invoices, estimation of actual project savings/ earnings
