The Problem
A Broken System Costing Businesses Billions
The Waste We Can’t Afford
Energy Wasted
30% of energy used in commercial buildings is wasted, amounting to $400 billion annually in losses for U.S. businesses.
-U.S. Department of Energy, Deloitte, McKinsey & Company
Water Wasted
25% of water entering commercial facilities is wasted due to inefficiencies and outdated systems.
Why Does This Happen?
The underlying issues stem from four interconnected problems, collectively creating a unique opportunity for transformative solutions:
01
The Aging Grid
We remain tethered to a half-century-old grid that was never designed to meet today’s demands or support the renewable energy of tomorrow.
Operating within a 200-year-old utility business model, ratepayers (not "customers") have little say in how this system impacts their operations and costs.
02
The Aging Building Stock
The U.S. has an estimated 6 million commercial buildings, and 2 million of them are at least 20-25 years old.
The average commercial building in the U.S. is 53 years old, with many municipal facilities averaging 70-82 years. Aging infrastructure exacerbates inefficiencies, waste, and costs.
03
Rising Energy Demand
U.S. electricity demand is projected to grow by 30% by 2050, driven by inflation, AI and crypto-related machine processing, and electrification efforts.
Increased adoption of renewable energy sources places additional strain on an already outdated and fragmented grid.
04
Neglected Conservation
Conservation measures offer the highest ROI for improving infrastructure, yet they are often overlooked because they lack the appeal of tax incentives or subsidies.
The utility industry remains highly fragmented, with manufacturers, distributors, and consumers often disconnected by conflicting agendas and limited knowledge of the full supply chain.
