Chris Harker, the owner and founder of Triple C Brewing was approached by Utility Management Services (UMS) offering a way to add money back to their budget to continue positively impacting the community.
UMS explained the benefits of a utility bill analysis and Chris was curious to see if they were overspending. A service that is risk-free with no out of pocket costs, this was a no brainer.
After Chris sent a copy of their utility bills, it was hands off for him from there. The off site audit uncovered multiple savings opportunities all of which required no operational changes. The UMS certified team of energy analysts uncovered a one-time
refund based on specific operating characteristics as well as ongoing annual savings. UMS conducted the analysis and handled the implementation with the power provider. All Triple C had to do was sit back and watch the savings roll in!
