Blue Earth Inc., an energy efficiency and renewable energy services company, has announced that it has completed the installation of 1,655 energy efficient EC motors in 358 Carl's Jr. restaurants located in California, Washington, Oregon and Idaho.
The value of the completed retrofit program was approximately $288,000. The project was marketed and installed under the Blue Earth Energy Management Services trade name. BEEMS also secured approximately $94,000 in rebates from 23 utilities that helped offset a large portion of the project costs.

The estimated first-year energy savings are expected to be approximately $271,000 and the estimated five-year energy savings are expected to be approximately $1.6 million. The annual kWh saved is approximately 1,860,125.
