Modernizing Systems to Reduce Costs & Improve Patient Outcomes
Upgrade critical systems to lower utility spend, reduce infection risk and enable maintenance staff to do more with less— without upfront capital
Cut Healthcare Utility Costs by 25-45%
Healthcare facilities face aging infrastructure that compromises operational reliability, rising utility costs that strain already thin margins, and pressure to improve clinical outcomes. The good news: modernizing your infrastructure can directly improve quality of care– and unlock cash flow in the process.
Modernize critical systems that pose financial risks & budget drain.
Aging energy systems often go unnoticed until they fail: shutting down surgical suites, forcing patient transfers, and causing millions in losses. Even without major breakdowns, outdated systems like HVACs, central plants, and power systems silently drain budgets and impact care.
We help modernize infrastructure to eliminate hidden risks, prevent costly failures, and create a safer, more efficient environment.
The Direct Link Between Infrastructure & Clinical Outcomes
1 in 25 patients is affected by HAIs daily, costing hospitals $360M in penalties each year and risking up to 1% in reduced Medicare payments.
Upgraded systems - from HVAC and air quality systems, to reliable power and sterilization processes - reduce Hospital-Acquired Infections (HAIs), ensure stronger compliance with care standards, and create better working conditions for providers.
From Cost Centers —> Strategic Assets
By transitioning from a reactive to proactive approach to infrastructure, healthcare facilities turn utility waste into cash flow, cut downtime and infection risk, and stay ahead of compliance.
Reduce Utility Spend
Deep retrofits and infrastructure upgrades can cut utility bills by 25-35%.
Ensure Compliance
Meet Environment of Care and energy/emissions standards to reduce regulatory risk.
Mitigate Infection Risk
Better airflow, humidity control, and purification can cut HAIs to protect your patients.
Lower O&M Costs
Shift from emergency fixes - often 18% more expensive - to stress-free proactive maintenance.
Avoid Unplanned Downtime
Reliable, modern infrastructure and power systems = avoided emergency shutdowns.
Improve Conditions
Avoid endless cycles of work orders for staff and provide more comfortable conditions for patients.
Strategies for Healthcare Facilities
-
Energy & Operational Efficiency
Our projects don’t just save energy; they reduce repair and maintenance costs, too. By improving building systems and streamlining operations, we give you greater control over performance, reliability, and long-term savings.
-
Resiliency
We strengthen your operations against risk. Starting with a comprehensive assessment, we identify vulnerabilities and design tailored solutions that protect mission-critical systems, ensure continuity, and keep your facilities running no matter what.
-
Financial Structuring
We unlock funding so you can do more with less. From grants and tax credits to rebates and low-cost financing, we secure every available dollar and structure solutions where guaranteed savings cover remaining costs.
-
Performance Assurance
We ensure projects deliver beyond expectations with customized performance services. On average, our clients save ~13% more than projected. Through annual verification, transparent reporting, and ongoing support, we ensure your systems stay reliable and adaptable.
-
Performance Contracting
With an Energy Savings Performance Contract (ESPC), your upgrades pay for themselves. On average, ESPC projects deliver 20–40% verified energy savings while upgrading mission-critical systems, making large-scale improvements at multi-facility campuses achievable— with no upfront cost.
-
Electrification & Carbon Reduction
Ready to move towards cleaner fuel sources? We design effective emissions reduction strategies for institutions that want to replace gas and oil systems with cleaner alternatives, reduce emissions, cut loads, and boost efficiency.
Project Highlight: Napa State Hospital
CEG Solutions partnered with California’s Department of General Services and Department of State Hospitals to deliver a comprehensive ESPC at Napa State Hospital.
The 138-acre campus includes 100+ buildings, 1,200 patient beds, and 2,200 staff, operating 24/7 with a central cogeneration plant. The $54M project modernized aging infrastructure, improved inpatient comfort, reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 5,700 metric tons, and cut site-wide energy use by 27%.
