NSTAR Selects World Energy Solutions for Municipal Efficiency Program
Designation Opens Doors to New Efficiency Projects for World Energy's Fast-Growing Energy Efficiency Practice
(firmenpresse) - WORCESTER, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 06/14/12 -- World Energy Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: XWES), a leading energy management services firm, today announced it has been selected by NSTAR, the largest Massachusetts-based, investor-owned electric and gas utility and a Northeast Utilities company (NYSE: NU), as an approved contractor within its Municipal Program. The program is designed to help municipalities in Massachusetts save money on energy through the implementation of energy efficiency measures.
As an NSTAR Municipal contractor, World Energy is now approved by the utility to provide comprehensive energy conservation measures, including lighting, energy management systems (EMS), HVAC, retro-commissioning and installing variable frequency drives, throughout the NSTAR service territory. The cost of these efficiency projects is being supplemented directly by NSTAR, with the utility offering incentives for qualifying lighting and mechanical retrofits.
The new designation marks the second for World Energy within the NSTAR service territory, and its fourth utility efficiency program designation this year. Recently, the Company was selected by NSTAR to participate in its Direct Install Program, providing efficiency implementations for small businesses. In Connecticut, World Energy was selected to provide efficiency services for the Small Business Energy Advantage Program as administered by CL&P and United Illuminating.
"Gaining the NSTAR Municipal designation opens the door to many more project opportunities for our energy efficiency practice in Massachusetts, while deepening the productive relationship we have struck with NSTAR," said Bruce Buckbee, Vice President, Efficiency, at World Energy Solutions. "We are pleased to have earned four key efficiency designations from major New England utilities in such a short time, an accomplishment which is helping us bring the benefits of energy efficiency to more customers throughout the region."
In addition to its growing stature in the Massachusetts energy efficiency market, World Energy has run hundreds of successful electricity, natural gas and renewable energy procurements -- driving millions of dollars in savings in the process -- for customers throughout the Commonwealth, including: Bayer MaterialScience, City Sports, and Tedeschi Food Shops; the Cities of Newton, Springfield, and Worcester; The Commonwealth of Massachusetts; and The U.S. General Services Administration, New England Region, just to name a few.
