Energy advice that does its homework

Your energy budget supports more than classrooms. From cafeterias and gymnasiums to athletic fields and district offices, your facilities have different operating schedules and energy needs. School calendars, after-school activities, and construction projects all affect how you plan spending and purchase energy.

5 reviews your usage, contracts, and district plans to recommend purchasing strategies and prepare energy budgets. We also help coordinate utility accounts, evaluate infrastructure options, and assess demand-related costs so your team can make informed decisions about the resources entrusted to your schools.

How we help

• Energy purchasing and bid support: Evaluate purchasing options and help coordinate bid processes based on your district’s procurement requirements, energy needs, and contract timelines.

• District meter management: Coordinate energy accounts across campuses, athletic facilities, and administrative buildings, including service changes as facilities open, close, or undergo renovations.

• Construction and utility coordination: Help coordinate temporary power, meter installation, utility service, and required inspection approvals for new schools, additions, and renovation projects.

• Power factor review: Identify power factor penalties on utility bills and help evaluate corrective options with your facilities team.

• Peak demand management: Review how cooling, equipment use, and facility schedules affect demand-related costs. Assess practical options that account for classroom needs and school activities.

• Rate and usage review: Evaluate available rate structures against your district’s consumption patterns, including school-day operations, evening events, and summer schedules.

• Budgeting and reporting: Prepare annual energy budgets and reports using consumption history, contract terms, school calendars, and anticipated changes in district facilities.

• Sustainability: Help develop, implement, and communicate an energy-related sustainability strategy that reflects your district’s goals, facility plans, and funding priorities.
