My pleasure giving Howard a reference – a very positive one.
Howard did a lighting upgrade project here in Maspeth, Queens in a 124,000 square foot warehouse environment in late2008 - early 2009 where we replaced 9 year old lighting as a result of a complete building renovation in 1999. We have had over a year of experience with the results, which were completely delivered.
For the buildings where the lighting was the primary usage of electricity, we saved approximately 50% of our usage and cut our bill in half. He coordinated the rebates and state agency contribution that funded half the project so we only had to put up half the cash - $45k versus $90k for the whole project. The cash payback was five months, which far exceeded our expectations. That did not include the tax credits we were also entitled to – just the savings on the electric bill. I wish I had 10 more projects that provided that return on investment.
As they say in the investment world – past results may not be indicative of the future – but if I had the opportunity, I’d be investing here as often as I could.
Hi Howard,
