That commitment to sustainability has triggered Baumans to progressively purchase energy performance for more than a decade– cutting yearly gas use by an approximated 55,000 therms and delivering annual energy cost savings of approximately $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 big area with two bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature in the greenhouse remains rather consistent,” stated Bauman.
Due to the fact that of twin-wall technology, the greenhouse is anticipated to conserve an approximated $10,700 in annual natural gas costs compared to single-wall building. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon cash reward of $2,400 to help balance out the included expense.
Baumans has received more than $80,000 in Energy Trust rewards. “We benefit from Energy Trusts offerings every possibility we get. Rest ensured, well be doing more projects in the future,” stated Bauman.
