It has been customary for business owners and managers to work with one consultant for purchasing energy and another consultant for help with identifying and implementing projects that reduce energy consumption. The problem with this arrangement is that energy efficiency projects can impact energy purchase contracts in ways never intended by the business owner/manager. Sustainable Energy Services solves this problem by serving customers on both sides of the utility meter. SES’s mission is to help its customers minimize the risks inherent in the energy purchasing process as well as when implementing projects that reduce energy consumption. SES’s objective and independent energy experts serve as the owner’s representative, which allows SES to bridge the knowledge gap that can exist between building owners and energy suppliers or technical contractors/engineers. SES also works with owners when planning new construction. New buildings that are more energy efficient have greater market value as well as lower monthly utility bills.
