Automated,
wireless, retrofitted solution reduces energy usage and costs for
commercial enterprises; is ideal for new and existing construction
Wilmington, N.C. – August 30, 2011 – Efficient Energy America, Inc.
(E2America) today announced an agreement with Environments Unlimited,
Inc. (EUI), a Wilmington, N.C.-based commercial general contracting
firm, to serve as the company’s exclusive distributor in North and
South Carolina. Under the agreement, Environments Unlimited will
provide sales support for integrating E2America’s intelligent HVAC
optimization technology into new and existing buildings, and will also
be responsible for training and managing a dedicated E2America sales
force to cover the two states.
As
businesses seek out technologies to help their buildings operate more
energy efficiently, solutions that address HVAC usage are gaining
widespread attention. Because HVAC systems account for a large portion
– in many cases, more than 50 percent – of the total energy used by
commercial businesses, many companies are recognizing that using the
right technology can result in substantial savings in their electricity
costs. Environments Unlimited and E2America will work together to offer
a solution that can help commercial enterprises reduce energy usage and
costs, while also improving overall comfort inside a building.
E2America customers typically reduce electricity costs by 10 percent a
month, and attain a ROI in less than 18 months.
“As
we work with our clients to design and construct new buildings we often
hear their concerns about making the facility as energy efficient as
possible,” said John Cockrum, founder and president of Environments
Unlimited. “E2America’s technology is unlike any other energy
management system on the market today in its ability to optimize a
building’s HVAC systems, ultimately resulting in substantial savings
for electricity costs.”

conventional commercial HVAC systems rely primarily on adjusting and
maintaining an internal building temperature through thermostats that
only measure two variables; time and temperature. E2America’s
technology is the only system that takes into account 19 variables,
including external weather data, internal and external humidity, solar
heat load and building occupancy to continually monitor, control and
optimize the operation of the building’s HVAC systems to provide the
optimum temperature for thermal comfort. And E2America’s
technology is automated, wireless and retrofitted, so it can be easily
installed in existing buildings as well as new construction.
“Environments Unlimited has a solid reputation for providing superior
design and construction service for businesses and for incorporating
green solutions whenever possible to help clients save money and
operate more efficiently,” said Dara O’Neill, E2America CEO. “We
believe that our technology is the perfect solution for EUI’s clients
in helping their buildings operate more cost-effectively, while also
ensuring the optimal indoor temperature for employees and customers.”

About E2America
E2America's intelligent HVAC control, optimization and real-time
reporting systems go far beyond traditional energy management systems
to reduce electricity costs, usage and carbon emissions for commercial
enterprises. The only fully-automated, wireless, retrofit technology to
deliver cash-positive results from day-one and ROI within 18 months,
E2America systems are installed in leading restaurant and retail
chains, as well as other commercial buildings across the U.S. The
E2America intelligent Smart Grid efficiency technology reduces energy
consumption (kWh) and demand (kW) of each facility through management
of the HVAC equipment, which draws the heaviest electrical loads. Each

and no training is required. Because the systems are entirely wireless,
installation takes only hours. E2America is a Trade Ally with many
utility companies, including Touchstone Energy Cooperatives, Progress
