Shared Energy Savings Financing

Hill York can, in some cases, offer financing of hygreen projects that is entirely paid for by the energy costs avoided thru increased efficiencies.  Several financing vehicles are available and Hill York’s share of the savings is dependent on the amount of risk that the company assumes.  Those financing options include commercial leases that are structured to pay out entirely from energy savings; third-party ESCO financing; and custom-tailored programs using a variety of models.

LEED Certification Services

Ventilation Management & Control

Hill York offers advanced Demand Controlled Ventilation strategies, including the OptiNet multi-parameter Facility Monitoring System.  This system can reduced sensor counts by >90% and, in addition to CO2-driven control, can sense and control based on non-human pollutants such as volatile organic compounds, respiratory-size particle, carbon monoxide. It also offer precise dew point sensing and control for critical applications such as chilled beams.

Energy Savings With < 2-Year Payback

Hill York’s hygreen solutions are generally designed to avoid energy costs sufficient to provide a simple payback period of not more than two years.  Even more compelling can be the cost-to-benefit ratio, based on a Capital Recovery Factory (CRF), since this model also gives us the flexibility of evaluating the true value of a solution based on the true economic value of the incremental efficiency improvements over the life of the project.
