Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an energy assessment and an energy audit?

An energy assessment is a structured evaluation based on ASHRAE principles. It identifies opportunities for improvement, but it is presented in plain language and is tailored to practical decision-making. An audit is often more detailed and used for projects that require advanced modeling or investment-grade documentation.

How long does an assessment take?

Most assessments are completed within a week, from the initial call to the site visit. The complete review depends on building size and the available data.

Do I need utility data to begin?

Utility data helps energy experts identify patterns and confirm savings estimates, but it is not required to begin the process. Blink Energy Services can begin with basic information and collect the remaining details later.

Can an energy assessment help with comfort issues?

Yes. Comfort concerns, such as hot and cold rooms, drafty areas, and inconsistent ventilation, are evaluated as part of the assessment.

Is an energy assessment required for PACE or Lone Star funding?

Many financing and funding programs require documented savings opportunities. Assessments often serve as the first step in preparing those documents.

Does Blink sell equipment?

No. Blink Energy Services only provides independent evaluations and recommendations.
