Our Technology

Making energy efficiency easier and smarter

Performance Energy has developed an innovative technological platform designed to improve the precision, speed, and cost-effectiveness of energy retrofitting. Our Retrofitter™ System integrates custom-designed hardware and software to transform how energy audits and retrofits are performed. 

The system transforms the efficiency of energy audits with time-stamped, geotagged, and spatially aware data collection. It provides detailed scopes of work, thorough post-inspection evaluations, and adherence to the highest industry standards.

Delivering precise, actionable insights, the Retrofitter™ System dramatically streamlines the retrofitting process, reducing costs and providing greater energy savings to home owners, multi family managers as well as Utilities and Energy Implementers.

The Retrofitter™ System

Retrofitter BackPack™

The Retrofitter BackPack™ is a wearable device that incorporates more than ten advanced sensors and

cameras. The portable unit collects AI driven – comprehensive, in-depth data on energy inefficiencies, generating insights that result in more cost-effective retrofitting plans. 

 

  • Automatically collects and processes data for more effective energy reduction strategies

 

  • Features an intuitive design, supporting technicians of all skill levels

 

  • The system’s speed, precision, and scalability make it essential for large-scale energy retrofitting projects

Retrofitter Lenses™

Equipped with both thermal and naked-eye cameras, our Retrofitter Lenses™ bring unmatched insight to energy inspections. The headset detects hard-to-spot inefficiencies, such as duct leaks or insufficient airflow that would normally be missed. Overlaying advanced imaging onto real-world visuals, the Lenses™ allow technicians to identify problem areas quickly and effectively. 

  • Heightens the accuracy of energy audits for more reliable results

 

  • Speeds up data collection, enabling comprehensive and efficient evaluations

  

  • Future versions will integrate additional machine learning and AI for additional speed and precision  

The Retrofitter App™

The Retrofitter App™ serves as the digital command center for the entire Retrofitter™ system. Synchronizing all inspection data—whether online or offline—the app offers comprehensive graphs, metrics, historical data, and compliance information. The app provides real-time access to key insights, allowing for more effective decision-making during audits and retrofits. 

 

  • The result of over six years of field experience in single and multifamily projects 

 

  • Delivers data integrity while simplifying the energy audit process  

 

  • Collaborative features streamline data sharing across teams and trades  

 

  • Improves project outcomes with accessible and reliable data management  



The Retrofitter™ System

Improving energy retrofitting by the numbers

The Georgia pilot program

The Retrofitter™ System’s capabilities were demonstrated in a groundbreaking two-year pilot program in Georgia. During this time, the Performance Energy team retrofitted 6,000 homes, achieving a remarkable peak rate of Deep Energy Retrofitting 35 homes a day.

Cost-effective retrofitting

Due to the system’s efficiency and automation, retrofitting costs in multifamily settings were reduced from $3.75 to $2.50 per square foot.

Lower utility bills

Use of the Retrofitter™ System resulted in marked reductions in energy consumption, delivering 25% average energy savings per household. The Georgia pilot program demonstrated the Retrofitter™ System’s ability to perform large-scale retrofitting projects and drive energy savings at scale. The system allows utilities to target energy efficiency programs in grid areas with high demand, providing a quick and cost-effective alternative to grid expansion or infrastructure upgrades.
