Green Switch Capital - Environmental Capital Vancouver, British Columbia, Green Projects

The uniqueness of the Green.Switch package is one-stop shopping for the client. There is no need for their corporate resources (in-house or outsourced) to perform multiple steps: consulting, site assessments and plans, complex government incentive programs, finance and contracting. Following the energy-saving retrofit, the improvements are monitored, managed and maintained, as well as leveraging the brand and promotional value of the upgrade.

Green.Switch is prepared to deliver any or all of these services, ideally the complete package. In this circumstance, Green.Switch finances the entire venture and amortizes the investment from a contracted percentage of the new energy saving. In other arrangements, Green.Switch and its contractors deliver all or some of the services, unparalleled in quality and value. Green.Switch invoices the client for costs plus pre-negotiated management and consulting fees.

The steps in each relationship.

• ASSESSMENT - consulting services about energy conservation, government incentives, site inspections and energy-saving potential. Capital and maintenance costs, and expected energy-saving, would be compared to all present costs. In older properties, it is virtually certain that upgrades will achieve complete capital cost recovery in a remarkably short passage of time, and substantial long-term energy savings.


• ACQUISITION OF MATERIALS - Green.Switch has sourced the optimal values in the world for lighting, wiring and related infrastructure, a combination of both quality and price.


• FINANCING IMPROVEMENTS - either capitalized by Greenscape/Green.Switch or the customer's direct investment.


• CONTRACTING - the service providers are absolutely the best in the business, with unimpeachable credentials and references that can be vetted by clients.


• MANAGEMENT and MAINTENANCE - Green.Switch is part of a corporate group that is engaged in environmental concerns, alternative energy, carbon offsets and similar strategies, a much larger corporate culture that cannot afford to fall short of goals in any energy-saving contract. The best and most knowledgeable people available will manage and monitor the performance of each site and overall relations with the client company.


• BRANDING and PUBLIC RELATIONS - social responsibility is vital to any corporation's mission in this era. Companies that take the lead are an inspiration to everyone else and deserve recognition for the investment and the conscientious behaviour. Green.Switch has within its group of professional associates, demonstrable expertise in branding, facility design, promotion, communication and media relations.
