"I think the team at Parris Island, with this ESPC, may have just redefined a 'deep energy retrofit."

” Clean sustainable solar power benefits patients, employees and the environment. The addition of an eco-friendly energy source, along with our hospital’s green construction, recycling program and water conservation, helps deepen our commitment to a healthier community.“

“City Leap means large investment in Bristol’s energy systems and our ambitious carbon targets. We are creating a long-term partnership on a scale that will bring investment into the much-needed decarbonisation of our energy system. City Leap will have a real impact for Bristol residents including the way people move around the city and the ways that we power and heat our homes. It will help us to move much more quickly towards carbon neutrality, creating a cleaner, greener and healthier city that is truly fit for the future. With City Leap, Bristol will become a focal point for new low carbon technologies and smart energy systems whilst creating thousands of jobs and ensuring a just transition. I’m pleased to see a potential partner that shares our vision for a better, zero-carbon Bristol.”

"The energy savings performance contract with Ameresco brought major improvements to Wallops Flight Facility.This effort will single-handedly satisfy Wallops’ federal energy reduction requirements beyond the horizon of all existing legislation and it contributes significantly to help to refresh aging infrastructure."

“It transitions us into a more sustainable environment, providing new equipment to allow us to move into a much longer facility life(span) and keeps us operating at a more cost-efficient amount.”

"It makes good economic and business sense for the City to install new LED street lights and a wireless control system that reduce energy use by more than 60 percent while improving illumination, safety and addressing dark sky considerations. In addition to dramatic energy and maintenance savings, the control system will also enable us to move to a lower cost metered rate schedule that provides further cost reductions."

"This ESPC project is probably the most comprehensive ESPC ever entered into by the Navy, involving 121 buildings (3.1 million square feet total) and 20 energy conservation measures (ECMs). This will result in MCRD Parris Island reducing their energy consumption by 384,962 million BTUs (79%) and water consumption by 74.6 million gallons (27%) annually. I think the team at Parris Island, with this ESPC, may have just redefined a ‘deep energy retrofit!"

“Data integration in a visualization tool is the window to new strategies and meet our goals and objectives. AssetPlanner™ just does that! In 2019, CPS expanded Ameresco’s energy manager scope of work to encompass energy bill processing. Since then, the Ameresco’s Supply Management team has dramatically improved the accuracy of CPS’s utility and facility data resulting in savings and increased operational efficiency. Ameresco has streamlined CPS’s allocation and payment process to ensure billing accuracy and timely payments. With the deployment of AssetPlanner™ to house our billing data, CPS has a software tool that provides analytics capabilities to help CPS meet and measure our Energy and Sustainability Goals across 2,600 electricity and natural gas accounts and provides our stakeholders with actionable information to develop our energy projects.”

“We are now almost ready to begin converting all 77,000 streetlights across our city to LED bulbs. By doing this, we will be bringing significantly improved lighting to every neighborhood in Memphis, As I stated in my State of the City last year, no longer will criminals have a safe harbor to operate under cover of darkness and prey on our citizens in dimly lit parts of the City. I’m pleased this much-needed project will be starting soon.”

“The advantage of working with Ameresco is that they can perform multiple projects at one time. It would take years to do these projects individually and it would cost a lot more in time and money.”

"Ameresco and their design and construction teams have done an exceptional job partnering with the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard team to provide this innovative technology upgrade to our existing microgrid."

“Phase 1 is projected to save £315,726 and 675 tonnes of carbon equivalent (tCO2e) each year – these savings being guaranteed by Ameresco under an Energy Performance Contract. Working with Ameresco has allowed us to accelerate the roll-out of our energy efficiency programme in a more comprehensive manner and at a greater pace than could be achieved using limited in-house resources. We look forward to developing further phases to help us become a net zero carbon local authority by 2030.”

“We are thankful to Ameresco with whom we forged a good partnership to achieve maximum reuse of materials from the former hospital and demonstrate that sustainable deconstruction can be successfully implemented to help advance circular economy goals and environmental development. To meet our climate goals and lower our total carbon impact, it is essential to incorporate all opportunities for reuse, especially of elements, like steel and concrete that take a large amount of energy to make.”
