Health Care

Hospitals face the dual constraint of rising costs of healthcare services and increasing energy costs. Hospitals in the U.S. spend more than $5 billion on energy every year. The ESA from Metrus offers hospitals a third-party financing solution to implement facility improvement projects and environmental improvement measures, including HVAC systems upgrade or replacement, waste heat recovery, control systems, high efficiency lighting, and bio-waste management programs. Additional drivers for energy efficiency include regulations that link approval of healthcare facility upgrades and construction to green standards.
