Are you still using the Public Housing Authority (PHA) Utility allowance?
Our team conducts custom utility allowance modeling for multifamily affordable housing developments across the United States. Developers and managers of these properties have the option of providing actual consumption data or conducting energy consumption modeling in lieu of adopting local housing utility allowances. In cases where the actual consumption or the modeled consumption is lower than the published housing utility allowance, the developer or management company can increase its profit and recover money invested in water and energy efficiency upgrades. The cost of conducting a water or energy consumption model can generally be recovered in two months or less. Better yet, if the model we create for you does not make economic sense by being lower the local published housing allowance, or if the model is not approved by the regulating state agency, there is no charge. It’s as simple as that!
