Contract Energy Management Mechanism

Since the mid-70s, a market-based, new energy-efficient new mechanism - "Contract Energy Management" (referred to as EPC) in a market economy gradually developed countries, while the new mechanism based on this energy-efficient operation of specialized " Energy Service Company "(in the foreign countries, said ESCO, in the domestic short EMCo) is growing very rapidly, especially in the United States, Canada, EMC has developed into a new energy-saving industries. Contract Energy Management Mechanism in essence: a in order to reduce energy costs to pay the full cost of energy-saving energy-saving projects investment.
Such an energy-saving investment allows the user to the use of future energy-saving benefits for the plant and equipment upgrades, as well as reduction in the current operating costs. Energy Management Contract in the implementation of energy-saving project investment enterprises ( "User") and the profitability of specialist energy management company entered into between, it helps to promote energy-saving projects conducted. Energy-saving investments in the traditional manner, energy-saving projects by all the risks and all the profits of the enterprise has undertaken the implementation of energy-efficient investments; in the contract energy management approach, in general, does not require the enterprise's own substantial investment in energy-saving projects. Energy Service Company (ESCO) is an energy management system based on the operation of the contract in order to profit directly to the purpose of specialized companies. ESCO and the willingness to engage in energy-saving customers energy service contracts entered into for the user's investment or financing energy efficiency projects, to provide energy efficiency audits, energy project design, construction, monitoring, management, etc., and through shared projects with users generated after the implementation of energy efficiency to profitability and rolling development.
