Energy Efficiency Benefits NH Businesses: A Success Story
Originally posted on NH Biz Report
Although popular and highly effective, solar panels aren’t the only option to save on energy costs.
In fact, energy efficiency is a tried and true method to reduce energy consumption and lower energy costs with a rapid return on investment. Beyond the economic benefits, energy efficiency measures such as improved lighting, weatherization and efficient heating & cooling equipment can actually improve overall building comfort and productivity at home and at work.
Look no further for a success story than MilliporeSigma, a global company with 65 manufacturing sites worldwide and more than 19,000 employees. One of their largest manufacturing facilities is located in our own backyard: Jaffrey, New Hampshire, which produces precision filtration devices for use in the food and beverage, ultra-pure water and pharmaceutical manufacturing industry. The Jaffrey plant continuously implements energy efficiency measures targeted at reducing costs while working towards the company’s corporate goal of a 20 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2020 versus 2006 levels.
