On-Site Generation and Power Quality
On-site generation and power quality.
Does on-site generation make financial sense?
On-site generation and power-quality projects can lower energy costs and improve resilience, but the case depends on your load profile, tariff and site. We model generation alongside efficiency, because the cheapest kilowatt-hour is the one you never use. Then we present the SIR, IRR and payback so you can decide.
What is Generation & Power?
Efficiency comes first: reducing load shrinks the generation system you need and improves its return.
How does it lower your bill?
- Offset purchased kWh with on-site production.
- Reduce exposure to peak pricing and demand charges.
- Improve power quality and resilience.
- Integrate with EMS metering for verified output.
Typical savings
Site-specific; modeled per project.
Typical, varies by facility. Confirmed through an on-site audit and metered M&V.
Ideal facilities
- Large flat-roof warehouses
- Manufacturing
- Campuses
- Critical operations needing resilience
Utility capital pays for part of the upgrade
Generation incentives and tariffs change frequently. We review current programs during the audit.
- We identify every eligible NV Energy prescriptive and custom incentive.
- We stack lighting with controls to raise the incentive 20–50%.
- We prepare and submit the application, then verify savings under IPMVP.
Measured under IPMVP, monitored 24/7/365
We follow the International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP). Before work starts we set a metered or engineering baseline. After installation we measure the same loads and adjust for weather, occupancy and operating hours. The difference is your verified savings, and it is reported in kWh, kW and dollars.

Frequently asked questions
Should we do efficiency or generation first?
Efficiency first. It reduces the size and cost of any generation system.
Do you finance generation?
We present financial options as part of the model.
How do we know the system performs?
Output is metered and reported alongside your consumption data.
Can generation be combined with incentives?
Sometimes. Program availability varies, and we check current offerings.

Book a no-pressure consultation with a veteran energy consultant. We will show you the savings, the incentive and the payback before you commit.
Every month you wait is money lost to inefficiency. Incentive funding is limited per program year.
