Sempa Power Systems was formed with building owners and condo stratas to identify ways to reduce the cost of heating buildings, starting in the resort community of Whistler. After experimenting with the use of off-peak electricity to displace fossil fuels for certain fuel heating applications, they realized how novel the concept and approach really was. They patented some of the core ideas, further enhanced and developed the Hybrid Heating System and now Sempa works with resources across North America to assist them in making smart energy choices to lower costs and reduce greenhouse gases.

Why Hybrid Heating Solutions?
According to the Department of Energy in the United States, commercial real estate and hotel/ resort owners spent approximately $100 billion on energy costs and consumed about 18 percent of all energy used in 2003. This expense represents between 5 and 10 percent of total operating expenses for commercial real estate owners and managers.
There are a variety of solutions available for newly constructed commercial properties that reduce energy consumption that include, installing high efficiency heating and air-conditioning, utilizing insulation with improved heat retention characteristics that are focused on reducing energy consumption. The Sempa Hybrid Heating System™ is the only solution that is focused on reducing energy costs, reducing green house gas emissions and reducing energy consumption for existing commercial real estate.
On average, owners of existing commercial real estate can expect the following benefits from a Sempa Hybrid Heating System™:
Sempa Hybrid Heating Systems™ are designed to provide a payback period of less than 3 years providing an internal rate of return of greater than 30% per year. The savings are dramatic as is the impact on the environment!
