NYC Multifamily Manhattan, New York
Decision Challenge: Identify a cost-effective pathway for reducing building emissions and managing Local Law 97 exposure
B2G Assessment: LovEnergy modeled efficiency, solar PV, battery storage, CHP, heating-system upgrades and electrification while considering economics, interconnection and grid-program opportunities.
Key Outcome: The analysis showed that emissions reduction alone does not determine the best investment pathway; lifecycle economics, grid constraints and technology sequencing materially affect which measures should advance.
Value: Gave the building owner a financially informed compliance and capital-planning strategy—helping reduce LL97 exposure while avoiding investments that lower emissions but deliver weak lifecycle economics or create unnecessary grid and infrastructure costs.
Green Factory
10 MW Industrial Facility New Mexico
Decision Challenge: Evaluate how a large factory could pursue a net-zero energy target without materially changing operations.
B2G Assessment: LovEnergy evaluated hourly loads, solar, wind and battery storage together with land constraints, target timing and transmission/interconnection impacts.
Key Outcome: None of the modeled portfolios produced a positive economic business case under the study assumptions. Interconnection timing, land availability and potential grid-upgrade costs were also identified as material constraints.
Value: The industrial company avoided advancing a potentially multi-million-dollar energy strategy without an adequate business case and identified the specific economic, land and grid constraints that would need to change before the investment should be reconsidered.
Commercial Facility
New York
Decision Challenge: Determine which clean-energy investments should be advanced first and avoid committing capital to measures that provide limited lifecycle value.
B2G Assessment: LovEnergy modeled the existing building and screened efficiency, envelope, HVAC, solar PV and thermal-system investments before expanding the analysis toward interconnection, storage, flexible loads and alternative DERs.
Key Outcome: The study established a phased Building-to-Grid investment pathway rather than treating individual technologies as independent projects.
Value: Helped the commercial property owner prioritize limited capital, identify lower-risk investments first, avoid premature technology commitments, and understand which additional engineering or utility questions should be resolved before proceeding.
Small Industrial Facility New York
Decision Challenge: Establish a reliable building-energy baseline that could separate manufacturing and office consumption for tax reporting while supporting future energy investment decisions.
B2G Assessment: LovEnergy developed and utility-calibrated a whole-building model, separating shared electrical demand and establishing the building's load and operating profile.
Key Outcome: The analysis accurately identified the % split of total metered supply and demand costs of the office vs manufacturing spaces, that were accepted for tax reporting. Also established a calibrated foundation for evaluating solar, storage, electrification, efficiency, incentives and resilience opportunities.
Value: Provided a defensible basis for allocating energy-related costs and reduced uncertainty in future capital planning by creating a validated building-energy baseline that can be reused for subsequent investment analysis.
Recreation Center
Puerto Rico
Decision Challenge: Determine an integrated clean-energy pathway while accounting for electrification and new EV charging load.
B2G Assessment: LovEnergy modeled efficiency, PV, storage, GSHP, building loads and managed EV charging as an integrated system.
Key Outcome: Unmanaged EV charging materially increased peak demand, while a modeled battery combined with managed charging shifted demand away from the daytime peak and reduced potential grid constraints and upgrade exposure.
Value: Demonstrated how the center can electrify facilities and transportation without simply transferring energy use into higher peak demand, helping reduce utility-cost exposure, defer potential electrical upgrades and improve resilience and operational flexibility.
