Energy and Water Efficiency
Water and energy are often the largest controllable costs — and environmental impacts — for any organization. I help businesses optimize resource use through smart monitoring, efficiency upgrades, and strategic planning that delivers measurable savings.
What We'll Work On Together
-
Energy Audits
Comprehensive assessment of energy consumption patterns to identify inefficiencies and savings opportunities.
-
Water Usage Assessment
Analyze water consumption across operations to find reduction opportunities and prevent waste.
-
Efficiency Upgrades Planning
Prioritize equipment upgrades, retrofits, and behavioral changes with the best return on investment.
-
Renewable Energy Strategy
Evaluate on-site generation, power purchase agreements, and renewable energy certificates for your needs.
-
Monitoring Systems
Implement sub-metering and real-time monitoring to track consumption and catch anomalies early.
-
Water Recycling & Reuse
Explore opportunities for greywater systems, rainwater harvesting, and closed-loop water processes.
Example Projects
CSWA DIY Energy Audit Tool
Created a user-friendly, DIY Energy Audit tool that transforms how wineries approach energy management. This resource gives users the capability to immediately benchmark performance and pinpoint specific energy-saving opportunities, establishing a clear path to reduce operating costs and deepen commitment to sustainable practices.
Precision Energy Audits and Demand Reduction
Moved beyond standard reporting by performing comprehensive energy audits designed to deliver deep operational insights. I mapped the energy fingerprint of high-demand processes, empowering the client with the knowledge to aggressively reduce consumption and implement control measures that ensure long-term energy stability and cost predictability.
Mitigating Water Scarcity Risk: Portfolio-Wide Vintner Strategy
Executed a comprehensive water stewardship audit across a multi-site portfolio of four wineries and associated vineyards. I leveraged granular data analytics to pinpoint critical consumption hotspots and quantify portfolio-wide water risk. The resulting deliverable provided actionable, high-impact conservation strategies designed to drastically reduce water dependency and strengthen climate resilience.
"Since 2017, I have worked with Aaron on energy projects at six wineries. The projects include refrigeration and compressed air system tuning, solar PV installations, wastewater aeration upgrades, and thermal load shifting. In each initiative, Aaron was the best manager and coordinator that one could ask for. He is truly committed to his profession, and he makes things happen."Ryan Swanson President, Enesfere Technologies
