Commercial Building
With commercial building yields under pressure, governments requiring owners to improve building energy efficiency ratings (Green Star & ABGR), tenants requiring owners to provide emergency back-up and the likely introduction of carbon tax, building owners and managers have significant challenges ahead to plan and deliver their building's future energy needs.
Cogent Energy provides an alternative and compelling energy solution that has been tailored to meet the energy challenges of large commercial buildings and increase building yield. Cogent Energy is a one stop shop for building owners and managers to get a long term energy solution that delivers an increase in building yield through better energy rates, Green Star & ABGR rating uplift, emergency back-up and environment friendly energy.
Cogent Energy's solution comprises the latest cogeneration plant installed on site and engineered to meet most of the buildings energy needs including electricity, heat and cooling.
Whether you are about to build a new commercial building, refurbish an existing building or require energy efficiency improvements (Green Star & ABGR) then Cogent Energy has a solution to meet your requirements.
The Cogent Commercial Building solution provides:
Better energy rates - energy is discounted from the normal market rate; this discount can be taken up as a normal discount or as rental income for the space the cogeneration plant occupies.
More reliable energy - the cogeneration plant is used as the primary energy source while the existing electricity grid is used as the emergency back up, thereby providing the most reliable solution possible;
Energy efficiency rating uplift - a cogeneration plant can substantially improve the industry standard Australian Building Greenhouse Rating (Green Star & ABGR) for the building for minimal cost to the building owner;
Environment friendly - emits up to 50% less CO2 gases than conventional coal power stations, thereby meeting government greenhouse gas abatement and energy efficiency policies and initiatives.
Minimal capital outlay - usually the congregation solution is provided with only limited capital expenditure required by the building owner.
