That dedication to sustainability has actually triggered Baumans to gradually buy energy effectiveness for more than a years– cutting yearly natural gas usage by an estimated 55,000 therms and providing annual energy expense savings of roughly $42,200.
Last year, when it was time to set up a new greenhouse, Baumans reached out to greenhouse supplier OBC Northwest, Inc. for an energy-efficient design made 100% of twin-wall polycarbonate. “Although its a big space with 2 bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature level in the greenhouse remains quite constant,” stated Bauman.
The greenhouse is expected to conserve an estimated $10,700 in annual natural gas costs compared to single-wall building because of twin-wall innovation. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon cash reward of $2,400 to assist balance out the included expense.
Baumans has gotten more than $80,000 in Energy Trust incentives. “We take advantage of Energy Trusts offerings every chance we get. Feel confident, well be doing more projects in the future,” said Bauman.
