That commitment to sustainability has actually triggered Baumans to progressively buy energy efficiency for more than a years– cutting yearly gas use by an estimated 55,000 therms and providing yearly energy cost savings of around $42,200.
Last year, when it was time to install a new greenhouse, Baumans reached out to greenhouse supplier OBC Northwest, Inc. for an energy-efficient model made 100% of twin-wall polycarbonate. “Although its a large area with two bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature level in the greenhouse stays rather constant,” said Bauman.
Due to the fact that of twin-wall technology, the greenhouse is expected to conserve an estimated $10,700 in annual gas expenses compared to single-wall building. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon cash reward of $2,400 to assist balance out the included cost.
Baumans has actually received more than $80,000 in Energy Trust incentives. “We benefit from Energy Trusts offerings every opportunity we get. Feel confident, well be doing more tasks in the future,” stated Bauman.
