Overview
$5–25M Revenues
Annual Revenue From Consulting
Generated through consulting and evaluation contracts focused on energy efficiency initiatives.
Founded in Portland in 2011, the firm began by helping utilities and governments launch energy-saving programs.
Early work focused on retro-commissioning commercial buildings to unlock efficiency savings without large capital costs.
Over time it expanded into policy research, program evaluation, and engineering support to scale energy efficiency impact.
Typical projects include retrofitting HVAC systems, designing strategic energy management plans, and evaluating statewide efficiency programs.
Alongside conventional efficiency work, they also engage in high-efficiency heat pump initiatives and advanced building retrofits.
The leadership team is hands-on from technical scoping through implementation, ensuring technical rigor in every project.
A standout fact: they mine energy efficiency as a 'resource' to displace power plant capacity—treating saved energy as an asset.
