Core Plus, Medical Office Building
The Building
A 78,000 sq.ft. medical office building in New Jersey. The building was a 1990s construction with 6 rooftop HVAC units and a boiler providing heating and cooling, all upgraded in 2012.
The Money
The landlord invested $52k to upgrade their existing building control system. This created $68,000/yr in measured savings.
The first $34k of that was paid as rent - new topline income - to the landlord. Then Carbon Lighthouse kept $6k, and the tenants received the remaining $28k.
Savings That Stick
Using Act & Protect, a total of 11 faults were identified in the first year of service.
By resolving these faults, the building avoided a substantial increase in their energy costs.
The Result
In total, the building’s owner invested $52,000 to generate $34,000/yr in rental income, yielding a 65% return. Tenants received a net reduction in their expense pool of $28,000, as well as a more comfortable & efficient building.
