Facilities ROI Calculator

Model the payback before you schedule the walk-through.

Built for facilities managers evaluating BrightHarvest's indoor-light PV dispenser system across occupied commercial buildings. Use it to frame a credible first-pass business case, then tighten it with a Site Energy Assessment.

Planning Inputs

Start with the building profile.
Conservative assumptions

Assumptions used in this estimate

BrightHarvest models supply savings at 7% of current spend to stay conservative on adoption.

Battery swaps and maintenance touches are reduced, not eliminated, until the Site Energy Assessment confirms full fixture coverage.

Planning investment includes hardware, install scope, and commissioning allowance. Final quotes come after the facility walk-through.

Electrical load per dispenser is small; most savings come from operating efficiency, avoided battery servicing, and better restroom uptime.

Before / after snapshot

Before

  • Dispenser performance tied to battery inventory and manual servicing cadence.
  • Supply spend drifts upward when dosing and refill timing are inconsistent.
  • Extra labor touches across roughly 495 annual dispenser events.

After

  • Indoor light powers the dispenser fleet with an estimated 140 kWh of annual device energy offset.
  • Better uptime and fewer service interruptions support cleaner restrooms with less manual intervention.
  • Modeled annual savings of $6,929 against a planning payback of 3.9 years.

What Happens Next

Turn the estimate into a building-ready rollout plan.

The calculator is intentionally conservative. BrightHarvest closes the gap between first-pass ROI and final procurement with a scoped assessment, a dispenser kit sized to the site, and a maintenance plan that operations teams can actually run.

Step 1

Site Energy Assessment

We validate fixture types, restroom traffic, and dispenser counts before final scope. This estimate is designed to help facilities teams decide whether a walk-through is justified.

Step 2

PV Dispenser Kit

Indoor-light PV collectors, storage modules, and dispenser power hardware are sized against your actual floorplate and restroom mix.

Step 3

Facility Maintenance Plan

Ongoing performance reviews and scheduled service keep harvested-power coverage intact without adding battery swap routines back into the workflow.
