Energy Solutions

Man Wearing Safety Equipment with Solar Panels

The United States is an energy-intensive economy. Our country uses, for example, double the energy that Japan and Germany do. Yet, those nations are twice as energy efficient, spending half what the U.S. does to produce a dollar’s worth of GNP.

Improving energy management can have a giant upside in our nation’s global economic competitiveness and, more importantly, impact a company’s profits. Bowtie Engineering’s Energy Solutions help businesses become more energy efficient. Whether used as a standalone or as part of our three-piece integrated systems approach, our Energy Solutions can have a drastic impact on a company’s bottom line.

At Bowtie, we committ to working with our clients on ways to avoid unnecessary electricity costs without jeopardizing a business’s mission. A simple reduction of energy efficiency by two percent per year for five years is destined is a ROI-changer.
