$460,000 Annually
R&M is a transportation company with a fleet of 200 trucks. On average, each truck consumes 17,000 gallons of fuel per year.  The company considered purchasing the Etorus FE in order to reduce fuel expenses, but was reluctant to make the purchase without having a solid understanding of the actual fuel savings.

The company decided to enroll in the PPS Program for 24 months.  It received 200 Etorus FE units free of charge, and contracted to pay 50% of its actual savings on a monthly basis, as verified by National Energy Control Services (NECS), an independent third-party service provider that specializes in monitoring and calculating fuel consumption.  During the first 12 months, R&M was able to gather accurate data on actual savings as it moved through its business cycle and the different seasons of the year.

On average, the company saved 5.12% - a net savings (after sharing with Etorus) of $230,000.  With fuel prices rising, R&M decided to convert the Pay Per Save Program to a purchase, which was funded by the savings earned in the preceding 12 months. The cost-free purchase has allowed R&M to retain 100% of its cost savings, or $460,000, each year since the purchase.
