OUR SMART SERVICES
Envirosmart Solutions Group (ESG) is here to analyze information and program effectiveness, and to propose new ideas based on extensive research. Whether it’s a home or small business, we can assess conservation potential and provide a detailed report on your current resource usage, suggest changes to your use and offer recommendations.
ESG offers the following water conservation programs: commercial, industrial and institutional (CII) water use audits; water use benchmarking and budgeting; and gallons per capital per day (GPCD) analyses and evaluations. These programs are designed to help customers save water and money by providing a detailed report of current water use, inventory of current water-using fixtures, recommendations on high-efficient water fixtures and local rebate and incentive programs. Agencies also benefit from these programs to help reach their water conservation goals.
ESG provides energy efficiency analyses for residential and small commercial facilities through its auditing program. This entails a trained professional visiting the customer’s home or small business in order to assess energy conservation potential. A detailed report is then created for the customer, which includes current energy usage, recommendations on changes that may help curb or lower high-energy use habits and guidelines on energy-efficient products based on rebates and incentives offered by local utility providers.
ESG can analyze existing programs to discover their effectiveness. Various factors are considered to ensure the target audience is receiving the intended benefit and services. This type of evaluation is especially important when it comes to rebate programs in both the water and energy industries. ESG also looks at saturation rates and product use, which is vital information for funding source requirements.
Over the years, ESG has assisted many cities and agencies with their water and energy efficiency programs by providing analyses, research, audit and evaluation services.

ESG works with the City to review their current water conservation programs that are meant to comply with California Urban Water Conservation Council’s Best Management Practices. ESG analyzes which BMPs will bring about the most water savings and makes necessary recommendations to achieve that goal. The basis to the success of meeting the required BMPs is data collection.
The City of Roseville contracted with ESG to analyze the feasibility of cooling a large commercial building by operating a rooftop water spray system. ESG conducted a site visit, interviewed facility engineers, researched and analyzed a variety of alternatives, and provided a report with recommendation to the City's water conservation unit.
ESG worked as a subcontractor to Abraxis Energy Consulting and provided assistance with the U.S. Coast Guard Petaluma Energy project. ESG was responsible for conducting the water use portion of the project. It reported potential water savings and made recommendations for retrofitting water fixtures and adopting water conservation practices throughout the facility. The report also included a return on investment analysis.
ESG worked with the Santa Cruz Water Department to provide an estimated inventory of existing water-using fixtures, devices, and features within residential and commercial properties in their service area. ESG hired Western Policy Research to assist with the statistical analysis on randomly-sampled facilities based on sector types. The purpose of the study was to provide a baseline count of low-water using fixtures and statistical analysis to determine the current saturation level.

ESG conducted the analysis, briefed the City of its findings and prepared the report, which was submitted by the City to the Council.
ESG worked with the City of Palo Alto Utility on their Home Energy and Water Audit Pilot Program. ESG was responsible for conducting home energy and water audits in which all major appliances are evaluated for inefficiencies as well as an evaluation of landscape irrigation equipment, lighting, air leaks and insulation. ESG provided explanations of utility usage to customers as well as recommendations on where water and energy can be saved.
ESG is contracted by San Diego County Water Authority to evaluate its water-use efficiency programs to improve administrative services, monitor water savings, meet grant funding requirements, and ensure programs and initiatives adapt to changing conditions. ESG will also be updating the Alliance for Water Efficiency's Water Conservation Tracking Tool (AWE Tool) on behalf of the Water Authority.
ESG has been awarded a contract by Metropolitan Water District of Southern California to provide information about the different types of water end-use devices residents use in their homes. The study will also measure the amount of water each device uses per day and the daily amount of water use per capita. Traditionally, water use surveys are conducted to collect this data, but for this particular project, ESG will be using data loggers to collect actual water use at each home. ESG's team of consultants are expected to complete the project by 2021.
ESG has assembled a dedicated team of experts with a wide range of specialties to provide the best possible service for its customers. From experienced engineers to seasoned analysts, ESG’s global network is ready to meet and exceed expectations.
