Pure Eco Environmental Solutions is fully engaged as a member of the Victor International Company team in the development of Oil Nut Bay (www.oilnutbay.com) in the British Virgin Islands. Victor International’s vision for Oil Nut Bay is that it be a sustainable, luxury resort community co-existing in harmony with the beautiful natural surroundings found in the BVI. Pure Eco ES’s major role is to lead the planning through to operational assurance of Oil Nut Bay’s integrated community services and energy management systems, making use of the abundant sources of nature’s energy (wind and sun). Pure Eco ES’s other roles include advising Oil Nut Bay residents, and their builders, on how to plan and build structures to the highest levels of energy efficiency consistent with the total Oil Nut Bay community.

The major infrastructure elements of Oil Nut Bay are currently under construction. Pure Eco ES is planning, designed and installing the integrated services and energy management systems in phases of increasing technical sophistication. When completed, Pure Eco ES will have assisted Victor International in creating a model community of the future.

The Lange Center is a 30,000 square foot, two-floor banquet and multi-function addition to the existing Bay Harbor Yacht Club in northern Michigan’s luxury residential resort know as Bay Harbor Michigan (www.bayharbor.com). The Center’s construction began in September 2008 for completion and operation in mid-May 2009.

Early in the construction phase, Pure Eco Environmental Solutions was engaged by the Senior Project Manager to make recommendations to reduce the energy consumed in operating the new facility. The plans and construction details were reviewed and recommendations were proposed for improvements to the building envelope, lighting, type of heating, HVAC equipment and operations. The impact of these improvements on the project budget will be repaid by energy savings within the first three to four years of operation.

Pure Eco Environmental Solutions is working with St. George Orthodox Church to make their facility substantially more energy efficient. Phase 1 of the project involved performing a detailed energy audit of their facility in November 2008. After conducting the audit, Pure Eco identified multiple energy conservation opportunities with respect to the facilities insulation, lighting, HVAC and air infiltration through the building envelope. These conservation measures will result in a 30% reduction of the church’s yearly utility bills with an investment that will have a payback period of less than one year. Phase 2 of the project will begin in 2009 and encompasses installing additional conservation options as well as a solar hot water heating system. Phase 3 will explore the potential of renewable energy generation using both a photovoltaic array and a wind turbine.

Pure Eco Environmental Solutions is working with Harold Zeigler Automotive Group to make their dealerships substantially more efficient. We performed a detailed energy evaluation of their Lincoln Mercury dealership in Kalamazoo, Michigan in January 2009. After conducting the audit, Pure Eco identified multiple energy conservation opportunities with respect to the facility’s insulation, lighting, HVAC and air filtration throughout the building envelope. The recommended conservation measures will result in a 30% reduction of the dealership’s yearly utility bills (approx. $60,000) with an investment that will have a payback period of one year or less. Phase 2 of the project to begin in 2010 will be to install a car wash water recycler and energy star rated HVAC and office equipment (replace as needed).

Pure Eco Environmental Solutions is working with Bayview Yacht Club to make their facility substantially more efficient. We performed a detailed energy evaluation at Bayview in Detroit, Michigan during January 2009. After conducting the audit, Pure Eco identified multiple energy conservation opportunities with respect to the facility’s insulation, lighting, HVAC and air filtration through the building envelope. The recommended conservation measures will result in an 18% reduction of the club’s yearly utility bills (approx. $20,000) with an investment that will have a payback period of one year or less. Phase 2 of the project involves conducting a wind study for potential installation of a 20KW wind turbine to be installed on the property overlooking the Detroit River.
