Energy Performance Contracting

State agencies can partner with an energy services company to complete cost-saving energy and water efficiency initiatives.

Through multiyear contracts, Energy Performance Contracting helps state agencies:

Finance energy and water efficiency projects; and
Update or replace old or obsolete equipment with more efficient technologies.

Energy Savings Performance Contracting Campaign

The Energy Savings Performance Contracting Campaign (ESPC) is a proven budget-neutral approach to implementing facility upgrades that are paid for over time with guaranteed energy, water, and cost savings. This campaign is a voluntary initiative to help states, local governments, schools, and other public-sector organizations modernize buildings, address deferred maintenance, save on energy and water bills, and other lead-by-example goals through the use of performance contracting.

GEFA is working with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the network of ESPC Campaign partners to promote, share, and leverage best-practice approaches for performance contracting.
