Everything your building needs to cut energy, cut carbon and stay compliant.
We deliver the analysis that ESCOs and contractors charge a premium for, without the markup. Savings ranges below are typical results from past projects, not guarantees for yours.
Benchmarking and certification
Colorado's benchmarking rules, handled every year without surprises.
Portfolio Manager reporting
ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager setup, data verification and annual submissions for Energize Denver (25,000 sq ft and up) and Building Performance Colorado (50,000 sq ft and up). We also support other Colorado local programs, such as Boulder's Building Performance Ordinance and Fort Collins Building Energy and Water Scoring, and we catch the data errors that put buildings out of compliance.
ENERGY STAR certification
We take eligible buildings through ENERGY STAR certification, including data checks and the licensed-professional verification step.
Compliance pathways
Gap-to-target analysis, target adjustment and alternate compliance requests, timeline extensions and the measure plan that closes the gap for the least money.
Energy audits
From a one-day walk-through to an investment grade audit, scoped to what the decision needs.
ASHRAE Level 1 audit
A walk-through and utility analysis that finds the low-cost and no-cost measures and tells you where to dig deeper.
ASHRAE Level 2 audit
A detailed audit to ASHRAE Standard 211: full system inventory, measure-level savings, costs, paybacks, carbon and available rebates. Satisfies the audit requirements of many Colorado BPS pathways.
ASHRAE Level 3 investment grade audit
Bankable savings and pricing for capital projects, with an optional EUI report that maps every measure to your BPS target.
Retro-commissioning
Get the building you already paid for to run the way it was designed.
Retro-commissioning study
Trend analysis, functional testing and controls tuning across air-side, plant and BAS sequences.
- 10 to 30% typical energy savings
- 10 to 25% site EUI and carbon reduction
- Typical payback 0.5 to 2 years
Energy modeling
The right model for the decision, and never more than the decision needs.
Level 1: TRM calculations
Deemed and technical reference manual savings for prescriptive and custom rebate applications.
Level 2: bin and 8,760-hour models
Weather-bin and hourly models calibrated to utility and interval data.
Level 3: whole-building simulation
OpenStudio and EnergyPlus models for deep retrofits, electrification and new construction comparisons.
Industrial optimization
Lean tools and energy engineering for manufacturing floors.
Process PFMEA, Six Sigma and lean evaluation
We map the process, rank failure modes and remove waste in energy, materials and time.
- 5 to 25% process and energy savings
- Typical payback 1 to 3 years
Industrial energy tax audits
We assess energy use across your manufacturing processes and work with your tax professionals to claim the deductions you qualify for. Our fee is a share of the value recovered (for example, 15%), so there is nothing to pay upfront.
- Value can reach the millions for large manufacturers
- Typical payback under one month
Grid and utility consulting
Programs that move whole markets, built by someone who has run them.
Utility and municipal program development
Design of DSM, demand response, DER and EUI programs, prescriptive and custom, for utilities, cities and counties.
Distributed energy resources
Feasibility and program support for solar, storage, thermal storage and grid-interactive buildings.
Sustainability roadmapping
A dated, costed path from today to net zero.
Decarbonization roadmaps
Portfolio-level plans that sequence measures, capital and incentives against your net-zero and BPS dates.
Electrification consulting
Heat pump, heat pump water heater and all-electric conversion planning, from feasibility to contractor selection.
EV roadmaps
Fleet and charging plans that fit your electrical capacity and utility rates.
Project development and owner's representation
We sit on your side of the table.
Rebate and incentive navigation
Xcel Energy and other utility rebates, federal tax incentives and state programs, applied for and tracked until the money lands with you.
Owner's advisor for performance contracts
Independent review of energy savings performance contract proposals, savings guarantees and M&V plans.
Scopes, bids and MEP design
Scopes of work, bid packages and bid evaluation. Stamped MEP design is delivered with our licensed engineering partners.
