Atlantic Energy Saves Fortitech over 55K on Annual Energy Bill

Atlantic Energy Solutions, Inc. (OTC: AESO) has completed an energy saving lighting retrofit for Fortitech, Inc., saving the company over 55k annually on its energy budget. Atlantic Energy offers a comprehensive turn key energy conservation that pays for itself.

“We are consistently looking for opportunities to make our operations as efficient as possible without sacrificing quality,” said Walt Borisenok, president and CEO of Fortitech, Inc. “And utilizing this energy saving lighting system just makes sense.”

“Atlantic Energy offers the most comprehensive turn key solution for energy conservation,” stated company CEO Tim Brock. “We even offer financial support that is repaid through the savings by the new energy solution.”

After analysis of their utility expenses, Fortitech retained the energy experts at Atlantic Energy for a detailed energy audit for its headquarters and processing plant in Schenectady, NY.

The retrofit included a replacement of all HID fixtures with T5HO fluorescent fixtures and bi-level switches. All office spaces were retrofitted with new lamps, ballasts and occupancy sensors. All new Wal-Mart stores utilize similar T-8 low-mercury fluorescent lamps and electronic ballasts.

“After only taking 2 months from beginning to end, Fortitech now has better visibility in their headquarters and will realize an energy savings of over 20% or $57,792 annually with a simple payback of 1.5 years.”, stated Mr. Brock.

Utility rates have increased so sharply in the few years that businesses are looking to lighting retrofits as a cheaper investment than other conservation options, such as sealing off windows. Retrofits also have a much faster rate of return, they can be financed and it increases the real property value.

According to Forbes Magazine, an increasing number of companies are reducing their carbon footprint while reducing their energy costs, like IBM (NYSE: IBM) have cut their carbon intensity 6% a year; DuPont (NYSE: DD) and Dow Chemical (NYSE: DOW)$3 billion apiece.
