That dedication to sustainability has prompted Baumans to steadily buy energy effectiveness for more than a years– cutting annual gas usage by an approximated 55,000 therms and delivering yearly 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 model made 100% of twin-wall polycarbonate. “Although its a big area with two bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature level in the greenhouse stays quite constant,” stated Bauman.
Because of twin-wall innovation, the greenhouse is anticipated to save an approximated $10,700 in annual natural gas expenses compared to single-wall construction. Baumans got an Energy Trust of Oregon cash reward of $2,400 to help balance out the included cost.
Baumans has actually received more than $80,000 in Energy Trust incentives. “We take advantage of Energy Trusts offerings every opportunity we get. Rest ensured, well be doing more projects in the future,” said Bauman.
