Performance contracting often is thought of as receiving a guaranteed amount of energy and water savings that helps offset some or all of the costs of facility and infrastructure renewal projects. Johnson Controls helped establish performance contracting, and we’ve delivered it to a wide variety of organizations such as schools, hospitals, universities and governments. Traditionally, performance contracting allows users to make capital improvements, save energy and water, reduce emissions, improve sustainability and address tight budgets – and use the expected utility and operational savings to offset the cost of the upgrades. If Johnson Controls doesn’t achieve the savings that are guaranteed, we pay you the difference between what was guaranteed and what was actually achieved. The key is verification. Johnson Controls measures, manages and reports on our progress.
Johnson Controls has been involved in energy-saving, performance-based contracting with public and private organizations since the inception of performance contracting in 1983. Johnson Controls has implemented more than 2,500 performance contracts with total active guarantees of more than $4.6 billion in North America alone. These projects have saved almost 11 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions. As a Fortune 100 company with top financial ratings and 125 years of experience, we stand by our guarantees.

Compton entered a project development agreement with Johnson controls to identify ways to use energy savings and revenue enhancement to make capital improvements. Phase One of the agreement consisted of a performance contract for energy-related improvements whose costs will be offset by energy savings.
