MAKE YOUR MARK ON ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND PROFITABILITY.

Environmental protection and security issues are topping today’s agendas. Responsible policymakers at communal and municipal authorities, as well as company managers can make their mark by deploying forward-looking solu-tions in these decisive future areas. Effective measures, however, come at a cost and all too often fail to clear the planning stage due to a lack of funding for the required investments.

As we believe that environmental protection should not fail due to insufficient funding, Fountain Energy is presenting a concept that benefits communities, companies and our natural surroundings in equal measure. It’s called NZI Net Zero Investment. NZI not only stands for zero investments, but also delivers savings of 47 %* or even more on the energy costs previously incurred – right from day one of commissioning.

Apart from significant budget relief, the communal, municipal and company staff previously assigned to these tasks gain considerable amounts of time. An operating company specifically set up for the project manages operations, maintenance and continuous modernization. All that remains for clients to do is to enjoy the improvments benefitting their community or company.

Cut costs, boost security levels.

THE ENVIRONMENT BENEFITS. EVERYONE PROFITS.

* Cost savings are empirical values. They depend on the specific project concerned and may be higher or lower.

Whether public sector or commercial properties: in the course of a year tremendous expenditures are often incurred for air conditioning, heating and lighting. Indoor and outdoor lighting in particular consume excessive kilowatt hours of power. Moreover, the winter months may involve additional, dramatic cost surges. Deploying eco-friendly and high-performance LED technology can practically halve the operating costs for lighting.

Fountain Energy’s solutions represent genuine progress in terms of environ-mental compatablity and cost efficiency, as well as factoring in the ever rising demands for higher security levels in public spaces. Our lighting solutions can be equipped with LED security cameras that respond immediately to situations entailing threats – whether gunshots are fired in the area or toxic fumes emitted, the security systems immediately report threats and trigger alarms. The conver-sion to our high-security and cutting-edge technology tackles two of the great-est challenges of our age in one single step. The technology makes major con-tributions to effective environmental protection, while ensuring that people once again can feel safe in their surroundings.

Outsourcing halves the costs right from day one.

A CONCEPT DELIVERING IMMEDIATE RETURNS.

STADIUM EVENTSHuge energy bills are incurred when tens of thousands of people

attend evening events. The great news is that the costs can be immediately halved without any investments.

A SPOTLIGHT ON VEHICLESCar-park lighting puts considerable strains on profits.

Operators of car parking facilities can now save a large share of these costs and invest more profitably.

A FOCUS ON AIRPORTSAirports, ports, train and bus stations rank among the most critical security locations. Camera-equipped lighting and highly sensitive

sensors ensure that everything remains under control.

STREET LIGHTSLED technology also creates impressive streetscapes at night, as well as reducing costs for communities and municipalties.

In most cases, environmental protection projects not only call for major invest-ments, but also make strong demands on human resources. Extensive expertise in an extremely wide range of areas is called for. The respective tasks are distributed across the entire company or local authority. Commitment is required right across the board from units such as procurement, repair, maintenance and financial accounting.

Opting for NZI Net Zero Investment means that a single source performs all the respective tasks and assumes the entire responsibility – and not just during the implementation stage but also over the coming decades. From day-to-day maintenance through to modernization and upgrading measures – everything is attended to, entailing zero demands on your human resources. The management of the company that NZI founds for you keeps a tight reign on everything and ensures that all required tasks are performed regularly. All that’s left for you to do is to decide on how to put the resources and capacities saved to best use.

A full-range, single source provider.

The first step is a meeting. We get together with you to discuss your specific requirements with regard to lighting or security systems. Naturally, your ideal solution depends upon various factors. Regardless of whether you wish to showcase a medium-sized or large community in a completely new light or would like to lend your company an entirely fresh lustre, together we’ll devise a customized solution that meets all your requirements. Graecrest Energy is the only provider of self-funded, integrated solutions incorporating energy effi-ciency, back-to-grid power generation, and “smart city” networks through the proprietary Net Zero Investment Program®.

Once the parameters have been defined, there’s not much more for you to do. We ensure that everything else runs smoothly, including financing. There is just one last thing you have to consider – how the cost savings achieved can be most profitably invested in other areas.

In contrast to other providers and financing models, Grae-crest and NZI, the companies represented by Fountain Energy take all aspects into account and are the only com-pany and program to offer the complete handling and project management. Customers benefit 100 % from savings and there are no hidden reimbursement or commission pay-ments. Naturally, the site on which the equipment is in-stalled remains under the ownership of the local authority or company. Even better, the entire equipment can be pur-chased for a token amount of one euro at the end of the contract or a new contract can be drawn up. We are proud to present a programme that is currently unrivalled – no other provider offers such extensive service and so many options.
