ECS projects are designed to deliver innovative, cost effective solutions with optimal quality, performance and sustainability.
ECS offices across Australia and South-east Asia serve a wide range of customers that have a common need; to cut energy and water bills. Some are motivated purely by the financial benefits, others by the improved service that more efficient lighting, air conditioning and heating systems can provide, while others are driven to reduce greenhouse emissions or protect our water resources.
Since 1983 our turn-key delivery system has been proven through many hundreds of projects.
Today, ECS is the leader in energy conservation, from analysis of options through to delivery, commissioning, monitoring and verification.
ECS commitment
to environmental sustainability in the workplace is demonstrated
through the planning, development and operation of their head
office,
The Szencorp Building.
The Szencorp Building is currently rated as Australia’s
greenest office building, as
measured by the most widely accepted
building rating systems.
