Case Study: a retail owner and operator increases water cost recovery with Enertiv

Retail Owner and Operator boosts water cost recovery by $218,000 in 5 months with Enertiv

The customer, a retail owner and operator, was struggling with significant water cost recovery issues due to its incumbent utility provider, Conservice. The challenges included a lack of visibility into tenant usage, an opaque and error-ridden billing methodology, and a reliance on sporadic manual meter readings, which led to substantial financial losses and low recovery rates across its portfolio.

Enertiv implemented its tenant billing service, which involved a comprehensive on-site survey to understand the infrastructure and install the necessary hardware for real-time data capture. This created a transparent and auditable billing system based on actual consumption. As a result, Enertiv helped the client increase water cost recovery by $218,000 in just five months, which translated to an estimated $3 million increase in property value.
