Create a Culture of Sustainability.
We’re creating a movement in sustainability. It’s what we believe in; it’s how we think. We instill “green” behavior into the DNA of your organization to preserve our planet. The energy conservation services we provide extend beyond facilities and into the homes of those we serve, creating a lasting impact for generations to come.
Decades of experience have taught us not only what needs to be changed in your environment, but how to encourage support for your conservation program so you can produce and sustain the greatest level of savings possible.

Opti-Commissioning
What does Opti-Commissioning mean for your organization?
Opti-Commissioning focuses on optimizing system settings and schedules throughout the year, based on seasonal or opportunistic conditions. The Opti-Commissioning process encompasses Cenergistic’s three unique approaches for reducing energy consumption — equipment calibration, facilities monitoring and behavioral change — to reach peak client savings.
Calibration
Cenergistic reviews operational practices year-round to make sure opportunities for energy savings are maximized. This helps ensure equipment is optimized to run at peak efficiency.
Monitoring
Embedding Energy Specialists onsite promotes coordination between operations staff and the energy program’s plan of action. Combining periodic site audits with the added assistance of our patented Cenergistic Optimize™ energy management software platform, Cenergistic’s Energy Specialists and visiting engineers and experts monitor facilities in real time and address problems as they arise.
