Peaks are set by paint, weld, and stamping
Paint shops, welding and stamping lines, robotics, compressed air, and HVAC create sharp peaks that a monthly bill never explains, and low power factor adds a penalty on top.
Peak demand charges, power factor penalties, and voltage instability add cost to production, and your OEM customers keep pushing carbon targets onto their suppliers. MEP measures both, models the fixes, and holds no tie to any equipment vendor, so finance and procurement have numbers to work from.

Under GDMTH, when the plant draws power matters as much as how much it draws. MEP measures before it recommends.
Paint shops, welding and stamping lines, robotics, compressed air, and HVAC create sharp peaks that a monthly bill never explains, and low power factor adds a penalty on top.
Sags and harmonics from large motor and drive loads threaten robotics and precision equipment. A sag that trips a cell or corrupts a paint batch costs production and material, and in just-in-time supply it costs the shipment window.
OEM scorecards tie emissions and renewable sourcing to whether a supplier wins the next program. Most firms offering answers also sell the hardware, which shapes the recommendation.
Where a measure improves cost, continuity, or the carbon position, MEP models it and writes a vendor-ready specification so procurement can run competitive bids. MEP never sells or installs the system.
Build a measured load baseline and isolate the peak demand and power factor cost drivers inside the CFE billing structure.
Evaluate compressed air, HVAC, and process loads against ASHRAE-style methodology, from generation and controls through distribution and end use.
Where the plant faces voltage quality risk, MEP assesses it directly rather than assuming it away, and correlates recorded events with line trips, control faults, and scrap.
Model yield, tariff interaction, and return against your actual load profile, including payback, IRR, and the choice between owning the asset and contracting it.
Identified savings and savings verified under M&V are kept separate throughout, so finance books only what has been proven.
What is the effect on cost per part, and what can finance defensibly book?
Payback and IRR, with verified and modeled savings kept separate
Does the fix touch a running line, and what does it do to scrap?
Measures scheduled around production with the maintenance team
Is electrical work compliant, and is the Scope 2 data reportable?
Scopes to NOM-001-SEDE and NOM-029-STPS for ISO 45001 execution, plus Scope 2 data
Are vendor bids comparable, and is the carbon reduction credible?
Fixed-price bids on identical terms and CO2 per measure mapped to the scorecard
From a completed Level 2 audit
Pages from a completed audit of a Mexican manufacturing plant. Client name, address, and account data have been removed. Everything else is presented as delivered.
Figures shown are for one facility with its own baseline and tariff. Identified savings have not been verified under M&V. MEP does not guarantee savings.
Review the depth of the deliverable, then speak with MEP about the facility, the decision, and the appropriate next step.
To start, MEP needs your tariff classification, the plant location, the operating schedule, and the decision in front of you. Bills, single-line diagrams, load inventories, and metering data are requested after the first conversation, under NDA.
Request an assessmentA Tier 1 supplier in the Bajío ran efficiency, onsite solar, and battery storage together: about USD 142,000 in annual savings, a 320 kW cut in peak demand, a 5.5-year simple payback, and about 1,140 tCO2e avoided, roughly a 23% cut in facility Scope 2 under GHG Protocol market-based methodology.
These outcomes reflect that plant's tariff class, load profile, and baseline. Individual results vary by facility, and MEP does not guarantee specific savings.
Request an assessment. An MEP advisor will provide a written reply within 1 business day and a scoped proposal. Where you proceed, MEP writes vendor-ready scopes and governs the bid as owner's representative, with no stake in which vendor wins.

The energy audit recommendations were practical and supported by solid financial and operational rationale, making them easy to evaluate and act upon.
The energy study was very well done and delivered real results. The team took the time to understand how our plant actually operates and provided clear, practical recommendations.
The support we received on our Power Purchase Agreement was excellent. The team conducted a detailed and professional review.
Feedback from completed engagements. Client identities remain confidential. Individual results depend on facility profile, tariff, contract terms, and execution.
MEP will show you where cost and risk sit at this automotive plant before you commit to anything. Four fields to start.
