Free Technical Assistance for Building Owners

The Philadelphia Energy Authority works with national partners to offer no-cost services to help building owners identify, evaluate, and finance your building energy project.

When building owners replace aging heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment, most often they replace it with the lowest-cost and therefore lowest-efficiency product. This inevitably results in another 15-20 years of higher utility bills. Instead, owners should consider upgrading to higher-efficiency HVAC equipment. When combined with Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE), the long-term financing can cover upfront costs of efficient building systems, leaving owners and occupants in a better financial position. 

PEA is partnering with Allectrify and SRS to offer free technical and financial assistance to building owners. Make a plan for upgrading your HVAC system before it fails. Reduce utility and operating costs. Enhance building comfort and performance.
