BAU is an in-building (or site-specific) heating and cooling solution that would be typically built if an alternative energy solution, such as district energy, is not implemented.
In order to determine competitive district energy costs to customers, Corix works with our clients to establish a true baseline assessment and determines the BAU lifecycle analysis compared to the potential district system. It’s important to establish an apples-to-apples comparison that includes the full cost of ownership of each option and not just the fuel source.
