Marx|Okubo completed a facility condition assessment, life cycle analysis (LCA), and an ASHRAE Level II energy audit of a large hospital in Southern California, which included 23 buildings totaling approximately 2,182,390 square feet. Our survey included a physical condition review of the building systems, equipment, and components related to the building infrastructure to determine potential energy conservation measures (ECMs) and improve building operations.
The LCA considered age, condition, and remaining useful life to determine equipment replacement period for key equipment and to prioritize when equipment replacements were warranted.
The energy audit resulted in approximately $3,000,000 of potential annual cost savings with a projected overall payback period of 5.6 years which equates to a 17.7% return on investment. The energy audit results were coordinated with the LCA to optimize planning of equipment replacements.
