Rural Water Alliance is excited to announce the addition of Johnson Controls, Inc. as a strategic partner.  Johnson Controls is pleased to advise rural water clients regarding energy conversation and sustainability efforts, particularly in light of recent legislation authorizing public entities to engage companies like Johnson Controls to evaluate and implement energy conservation measures in an effort to reduce overall energy consumption.  As a performance contractor, Johnson Controls is able to provide a financial savings guarantee in connection with many projects, where rural water clients are guaranteed substantial savings over the contract period.  This guarantee is backed with a promise by Johnson Controls to pay its rural water customers the difference if the guaranteed savings are not realized during the contract period. 

Since 1894, Johnson Controls has contributed to the sustainability of Ohio's-economically, socially and environmentally. We will continue to grow our proud Ohio history as we create smart environments where people live, work and travel. Improving the Sustainability Profile With significant expertise in energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions, we lead the way toward improving sustainability in facilities and throughout communities. From energy efficiency and operational gains through facility improvements, to workforce gains through advanced metering infrastructures, to renewable energy supply expertise, our focus is helping organizations improve their sustainability profile.

Construction and retrofit projects result in additional community income and jobs. Johnson Controls provides family-sustaining jobs with average wages well above state average wages. We believe in local employment for local projects, including the purposeful use of MBE/WBE companies.

Harmful emissions are reduced by over 20% per year on our building efficiency projects, which equates to a reduction of several million pounds of pollutants each year. In fact, since 2000, Johnson Controls has reduced carbon emissions equating to the annual amount emitted by two coal-fired power plants!

Spending $1.5 Billion Annually with Diverse Suppliers Since 2003 Johnson Controls has been a member of the elite Billion Dollar Roundtable with a track record of continual spending growth with registered diverse suppliers. Our diversity business initiative is directed by senior management and is integrated into our corporate strategy.
