Going Green can save green

Green does not have to cost you more; in fact, most organizations that employ green practices see significant year-round cost savings. Through the NGSC certification program, typical energy savings alone are twenty percent within year one. However, energy and water are not the only areas where you can improve your bottom line; we can also show you how to achieve savings in areas that are less obviously “green.” Through simple but consistent principles, policies and practices you will be able to run your facility in an environmentally conscientious, sustainable manner while creating a safe, healthy environment for both your employees and your students. In addition to the money savings, the NGSC’s certification program offers the added benefit of keeping you ahead of impending legislation and the rising trend of environmental litigation.

The NGSC Green School Program is designed to save your school money. Every program starts with an evaluation of your consumption patterns and sources of energy, water and waste. A customized action plan is then built based on these calculations and your specific situation. Your consultant will show you what the dollar savings will be if a recommended action is taken and the cost of implementing the recommendation. They will also calculate the Return on Investment (ROI) and the payback period and after you implement our green recommendations we will help you monitor your progress against the plan and verify the savings.
