That commitment to sustainability has actually prompted Baumans to gradually purchase energy efficiency for more than a decade– cutting yearly gas use by an estimated 55,000 therms and delivering annual energy expense savings of approximately $42,200.
Last year, when it was time to install a brand-new greenhouse, Baumans reached out to greenhouse vendor OBC Northwest, Inc. for an energy-efficient design made 100% of twin-wall polycarbonate. “Although its a big area with 2 bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature level in the greenhouse remains quite consistent,” said Bauman.
The greenhouse is anticipated to save an estimated $10,700 in annual natural gas expenses compared to single-wall building and construction since of twin-wall technology. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon money reward of $2,400 to help balance out the added expense.
Baumans has gotten more than $80,000 in Energy Trust incentives. “We benefit from Energy Trusts offerings every opportunity we get. Feel confident, well be doing more projects in the future,” said Bauman.
