After CEG Solutions (CEG) completed its first ESPC project at U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM), OPM awarded CEG a $27MM contract in 2018 for a second ESPC project at the facility. The project encompasses a comprehensive set of sustainability upgrades at OPM’s Theodore Roosevelt Building (TRB), a 10-story office building in Washington D.C. The building is owned by the General Services Agency (GSA) and, as such, all measures had to meet the GSA’s design and operational requirements. Learn More.
State Government
Featured Project
We have extensive experience working with state governments and departments. We are on the lists of prequalified ESCOs for Virginia, Colorado, California, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Mexico, Kansas, and Hawaii. Through our work, we have gained experience adapting approaches to applicable state codes and regulations, procuring required state permits and licensing, and building local teams by recruiting in-state qualified personnel for onsite management. We strive to hire locally for our implementation team, which consists of in-house construction managers and subcontractor partners to promote local business and incorporate additional knowledge of state-specific energy and construction requirements. We have developed a thorough system for communication and project support between our local personnel and our development and project management personnel at our headquarters.
San Francisco, CA
-
Our project experience at the state government level includes work for the Ronald M. George (RMG) State Office Complex at the San Francisco Civic Center (SFCC). SFCC houses the California State Supreme Court, as well as the Judicial Council of California and the Administrative Office of the Courts. We delivered a comprehensive set of 11 ECMs to renew infrastructure, reduce energy and water usage, address long-term challenges with the existing control system, and reduce operating costs. ECMs included complete BAS replacement, advanced BAS controls strategies, HVAC airside control strategies, lighting upgrades and controls, cooling tower optimization, and heating hot water system upgrades. These measures resulted in a 38% reduction in annual energy consumption. Learn More.
Municipal
Featured Project
CEG has a breadth of experience working with cities and counties across the country to reduce energy consumption, increase renewable energy generation, and enhance resilience of city/county operations. We coordinate with relevant stakeholders to perform detailed audits of city/county buildings without disrupting operations, use rigorous data analytics to identify innovative and cost-effective ECMs, and develop long-term maintenance plans that ensure the continued performance of the ECMs. We also help the cities/counties navigate various financing options available for the projects, including third-party financing, federal and state grants, and utility incentives and rebates.
Baltimore, MD

Learn More.
K-12 Education
CEG works to improve energy efficiency, modernize energy infrastructure, and standardize equipment for school districts. We recognize that school districts often have a limited budget to perform facility upgrades, so we prioritize buildings and energy systems that have the most deferred maintenance, identify cost-effective ECMs, and apply for grant opportunities. Another challenge we overcome is limited staff resources available to manage the project. We provide ongoing support to the districts, including by managing the development and implementation of the project and providing regular updates to the district. We also help manage the complexity of multiple buildings and energy systems by conducting detailed audits of each one, working closely with site stakeholders from each site to understand challenges and goals, and creating a customized plan that takes into account occupancy patterns, maintenance schedules, and equipment age.
