Commercial energy audits in Lubbock.
We audit energy use in Lubbock commercial buildings and rank changes by cost, fit, and operating need.
Find the waste before you buy the upgrade.
Most commercial buildings are paying for energy they never use. A proper commercial energy audit puts numbers on it: where the waste is, what the fix costs, and what it returns. From there, efficiency consultants sequence the upgrades so the cheap wins pay for the big ones.
The audit also tells you when the answer is bigger than efficiency. High demand charges point at battery storage; aging equipment points at a mechanical replacement that pays back in utility savings. Either way, you decide with real numbers on the table.

What does a Lubbock commercial energy audit include?
Commercial energy audits show Lubbock building teams where energy is used, which systems may waste it, and which changes deserve funding. We examine HVAC, lighting, insulation, equipment, controls, operating patterns, and energy records. We match the audit depth to the buyer’s decision. A broad review can find simple operating changes. A deeper study can test larger projects with cost-benefit analysis, projected savings, and return timelines. Buildings that already completed earlier audit measures may have less savings potential.
Plan permits before funding upgrades
An audit report is not a construction permit. If a recommended project changes commercial building systems, the project team should check Lubbock’s permit path before setting the schedule. The City requires commercial permit submittals through its Citizen’s Self Service Portal. Review time varies with current work volume. If an upgrade affects wiring connected to Lubbock Power and Light, the design must follow LP&L installation standards unless LP&L approves an exception. These checks can change design, documents, and project timing.

BEFORE YOU BUY
How should Lubbock businesses rank audit findings?
- Rank no-cost and low-cost HVAC control changes before replacing working equipment.
- Compare implementation cost, projected savings, and expected return time before approving a capital measure.
- Use ASHRAE Level 3 analysis when a high-cost measure needs a tighter feasibility and economic review.
- For manufacturing, agriculture, healthcare, energy, or technology sites, tie each measure to the equipment and operating needs of that facility.
- Reject any recommendation that lacks a named system, stated cause, expected effect, and cost-benefit basis.

QUESTIONS
Straight answers.
What do we check in a Lubbock commercial building?
We check HVAC, lighting, insulation, equipment, controls, operating patterns, and energy records. Each finding must point to a clear operating or funding decision.
When does a Lubbock building need an ASHRAE Level 3 audit?
Use Level 3 when the team is studying a few high-cost energy measures and needs a more detailed test of feasibility and economic value.
Can an audit recommendation affect a Lubbock permit schedule?
Yes. A project that changes commercial building systems may need a city permit. Online submittal is required, and review time varies with city workload.
What changes when an audit recommends electrical work in Lubbock?
Wiring intended for connection to LP&L must follow its installation standards. Any requested exception needs express LP&L approval, which can change design and timing.
