WAYNE, N.J.,
July 11,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Donnelly Energy is excited to
announce Cobblestone Creek Country Club has completed its first
phase of energy efficiency upgrades through PSE&G's Direct
Install, a commercial clean energy program offering incentives for
lighting and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC)
upgrades.
Located in Lawrence Township, Cobblestone Creek Country Club
became concerned about a rise in their energy usage and utility
bills, reaching out to Donnelly Energy for help.
Donnelly Energy, an energy efficiency firm based out of Wayne,
conducted a free, non-invasive assessment of the clubhouse,
determining the cause of Cobblestone Creek's issue: a large number
of areas had inefficient fluorescent lighting, and the club had
aging HVAC equipment that was over 10 years past its life
span.
"Cobblestone Creek has been diligently working on plans to
renovate and modernize the clubhouse for our members. We are
dedicated to providing our members with state-of-the-art facilities
and becoming energy efficient is a big part of that," said
Jay Nusblatt, President of Cobblestone Creek Country Club.
"Once we saw the incentives from PSE&G and our energy savings,
it became a no-brainer to move forward with an upgrade."
Donnelly Energy and Cobblestone Creek worked together to create
the best and most cost-efficient plan of action for the club, which
included retrofitting their existing lighting with brand new
DLC-certified ENERGY STAR LEDs, replacing eight of their HVAC
rooftop units with high-efficiency equipment, and upgrading two of
their boiler systems.
The full energy efficiency upgrade would save the club 69,798
kWH annually in electricity usage and 7,835 therms in gas usage,
reducing a combined 91 metric tons of Carbon Dioxide
(CO2) emissions from the atmosphere. Enough to power 11
homes!
Because Donnelly Energy is a participating contractor with
PSE&G's Direct Install, Cobblestone Creek received over
$460,000 in upfront incentives to
help cover project costs, with the rest being financed at 0% APR
over the next 5 years. This resulted in no out-of-pocket expenses
for the club and more importantly, no additional costs to its
members.
The first phase of work focused on upgrading the lighting within
the clubhouse, including kitchen areas, offices, locker rooms, and
more. All of the club's rooftop units were also replaced as well,
with the rest of the project expected to be completed in Fall
2023.
"As New Jersey and PSE&G continue to progress towards a
Clean Energy future, we have been fortunate enough to be a part of
the journey," said Justin Avallone,
Vice President of Programs for Donnelly Energy. "Donnelly has a
special connection within New
Jersey's golf scene, as the preferred energy vendor for the
New Jersey State Golf Association (NJSGA). Being able to help
country clubs "go green" has always been a big passion of
ours."
Members of the NJSGA can see the energy efficiency project
firsthand during Member Golf Day at Cobblestone Creek Country Club
on July 17.
