That dedication to sustainability has actually prompted Baumans to progressively buy energy effectiveness for more than a years– cutting yearly gas use by an estimated 55,000 therms and providing annual energy cost savings of around $42,200.
Last year, when it was time to set up a new greenhouse, Baumans reached out to greenhouse vendor OBC Northwest, Inc. for an energy-efficient model made 100% of twin-wall polycarbonate. “Although its a big area with 2 bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature in the greenhouse stays quite consistent,” stated Bauman.
Because of twin-wall technology, the greenhouse is expected to save an estimated $10,700 in annual natural gas expenses compared to single-wall building. Baumans got an Energy Trust of Oregon cash reward of $2,400 to help balance out the included expense.
Baumans has actually received more than $80,000 in Energy Trust rewards. “We benefit from Energy Trusts offerings every chance we get. Rest guaranteed, well be doing more tasks in the future,” said Bauman.
