Case Study: Ecosave Energy Savings Project – State Water Corporation

State Water makes energy savings throughout NSW

State Water owns, maintains, manages and operates major infrastructure to deliver bulk water to approximately 6,300 licensed water regulated rivers whilst ensuring environmental flows are sustained.

They are committed to conducting its operations in line with the principles of ecologically sustainable development. As part of this commitment, they’ve been
rolling out policies, procedures and project initiatives to reduce their impact on the environment, promoting a positive environmental outcome.

Ecosave was commissioned in 2013 to provide energy savings through upgrading and controlling their lighting usage in Sydney, Tamworth, Dubbo, and Leeton offices.

Energy Savings Solutions that were implemented in the Sydney, Tamworth, Dubbo and Leeton Offices include:

• Lighting refurbishments and high efficiency LED replacements
• Lighting controls
• Appliance controls
• Energy saving modules

Ecosave are supporting State Water to reduce their impact on the natural environment through the implementation of Energy Savings Initiatives

State Water Environmental Management Plan

The total investment for this particular guaranteed energy savings project was $62,117; this included the project design, installation, commissioning and verification of the aforementioned energy conservation measures. Ecosave managed the entire process for State Water and delivered the project as an integrated solution and end-to-end service. As a result of the energy conservation work carried out by Ecosave, State Water Corporation achieved a total of $13,520 in annual energy savings across the various sites, which means the project is effectively paid for by these savings over a 4.6 year period. More importantly, as per our client’s ecological sustainability agenda, the energy savings project reduced State Water Corporation’s carbon footprint by 54 tonnes – every year!.
