EnergyCAP Helps Medical Center Get $195,000 Refund

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) February 12, 2010 -- A medical center at a major California university has recently received a $195,000 utility bill refund, thanks to EnergyCAP’s utility bill auditors. The collection and organization of the medical center’s utility bills revealed that for the past three years, the university had been incorrectly billed for sewage services. An additional $20,000 refund is now under review.

The university is in the process of consolidating all energy data and utility bill tracking, auditing and reporting in EnergyCAP energy efficiency software. During the process, questions were raised regarding property tax assessments that included potential sewer billing errors in 2007, 2008, and 2009. A subsequent review by the utility company resulted in the December 2009 refund of $195,000, and more dollars could be on the way. The utility company confirmed that the university was being charged two different ways for the same sewer services.

“This type of situation is exactly why we created a new service called CAPture Savings,” said EnergyCAP, Inc. CEO Steve Heinz. “When our clients sign up for the service, we look into their EnergyCAP databases for cost recoveries. They pay absolutely nothing unless we recover money for them. We also correct any setup and configuration problems we encounter. And, as an additional benefit, we give a final report that recommends further investigations or potential savings opportunities, such as building retrofits or energy procurement that go beyond the scope of our services.”
