American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE)
During an Energy Treasure Hunt, teams walk around a facility looking for quick ways to save energy. Those quick fixes can add up to big savings. Hundreds of organizations have used Energy Treasure Hunts to reduce their facilities’ energy use by up to 15 percent. Are you and your crew ready to find the treasure buried within your facilities?
The American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE) of the American Hospital Association is a professional association serving those who design, build, maintain, and operate hospitals and other health care facilities. ASHE's Energy to Care program hosts treasure hunts patterned after ENERGY STAR's model. The 1-2 day event brings together health care professionals on a quest to discover low-cost energy savings opportunities at a hospital or clinical site. Since 2018, ASHE has hosted five treasure hunts with 160 health care professionals participating. The groups have identified an average of $900,000 in annual savings opportunities for each of the host hospitals.
