Retrofits for Energy Efficiency and LEED® Compliance

Our Service Offerings

Upgrading existing systems for energy efficiency and LEED® compliance. Our retrofitting services help you reduce energy consumption and achieve sustainability goals.

VarcoMac's Retrofits for Energy Efficiency and LEED® Compliance services provide comprehensive solutions for transforming existing buildings into more sustainable, energy-efficient facilities while supporting certification goals. Our specialized approach delivers tangible energy savings, reduced operational costs, and improved environmental performance through strategic electrical system upgrades.

Our comprehensive energy retrofit services include:

  • Energy Assessment and Benchmarking: We conduct detailed analysis of your current electrical systems and energy consumption patterns, establishing performance baselines and identifying the most impactful opportunities for efficiency improvements.
  • Lighting System Upgrades: Our solutions include conversion to LED technology, implementation of advanced controls, daylight harvesting systems, and occupancy-based operation to dramatically reduce lighting energy consumption while improving light quality.
  • Building Controls Optimization: We upgrade and integrate building automation systems to optimize HVAC operation, implement demand response capabilities, and provide detailed energy usage monitoring for continuous improvement.
  • Power Quality Improvement: Our power quality solutions address harmonics, power factor issues, and voltage variations that waste energy, cause equipment stress, and increase utility costs.
  • Variable Frequency Drive Implementation: We retrofit motor systems with variable frequency drives for pumps, fans, and other equipment, reducing energy consumption by matching motor speed to actual load requirements.
  • LEED® Documentation Support: Our team provides the detailed documentation needed for Energy & Atmosphere credits, including energy modeling results, system specifications, and performance verification.
  • Measurement and Verification Systems: We implement monitoring equipment and software to track ongoing performance, verify savings, and identify additional optimization opportunities over time.

The VarcoMac difference includes our holistic understanding of both energy-efficient technologies and LEED® certification requirements. We work closely with other building trades to ensure coordinated implementation that maximizes the impact of your retrofit investment. Our team can also assist with utility incentive programs that offset project costs and improve financial returns. With VarcoMac's energy efficiency retrofit services, you transform your building's electrical infrastructure into a strategic asset that reduces operational costs, enhances sustainability metrics, and supports formal green building certification goals.
