“We’re able to get a free cooling effect—with chillers! It’s really kind of crazy. We learned that’s possible by working with Optimum Energy. Otherwise, we never would have known.”

Juan Ontiveros, P.E.

Associate Vice President for Utilities and Energy Management, The University of Texas-Austin

“We now have an overall picture of what efficiency across the plant should look like, as well as the savings that we’ve achieved.”

Healthcare Provider in the Southeast

Manager, Maintenance & Engineering

“Being able to reduce energy consumption through optimization is significant. If we don’t have to run the water chillers as hard in the summer months, then we can reduce a good amount of the energy used to condition the outside air… Optimum Energy gave us a lot of the options we were interested in, including making maintenance and operations more flexible and extending the life of the equipment.”

James Johnson

Director of Facilities & Lab Services

“If we turn the system off, we can watch energy usage increase. Then we turn it back on and we can make it go back down again. We can see the immediate, quantifiable impact. The savings are verifiable—we know that our money is being quickly recovered and that the investment is helping patients.”

Kathleen Morlang

Energy Manager, Penn Medicine

“Chiller optimization offered us the biggest bang for the buck when Baylor explored ways to reduce its energy spend. Optimum Energy is top notch.”

Kenneth Haltom

Aramack Energy Services

“The collaboration between Optimum Energy and TECO has allowed us to accommodate load growth without adding capital equipment. This is always the first choice, and the efficiency gains provide savings every day of the year. This is a win-win for Optimum Energy, TECO, and TECO’s customers.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a chiller plant and chilled water optimization?

A chiller plant is a centralized cooling system that utilizes chilled water and cooling towers to provide cool air inside a facility. Chilled water optimization expands on this, monitoring and controlling the independent systems that make up the chiller plant, ensuring optimal performance. These systems include the chiller itself, cooling towers, condenser pumps, chilled water pumps, and air handler units like heat pumps.

How do you optimize water chiller operation?

Optimize water chiller operation by:

  • Regularly maintaining equipment and the system as a whole.
  • Employing smart monitoring, controls, and support via OptiCx® and OptimumLOOP®.
  • Identifying equipment that is inefficient or needs to be repaired.
