Ameresco | Energy Solutions | Operations and Maintenance Services
Trusted Operations & Maintenance Provider
Operations and maintenance of energy systems poses a challenge for commercial, industrial and municipal organizations constrained by budgets that offer no room for additional staff. Energy efficiency contracting services from Ameresco’s energy services specialists free businesses and municipalities from the ongoing expense of renewable energy systems while allowing them to reap the benefits of lower energy costs. As an experienced energy solutions provider and systems developer, we bring the hands-on expertise necessary to ensure that energy systems perform according to their specifications, with specialized expertise in solar power, wind power, hydropower, cogeneration and biomass energy, as well as battery energy storage systems and microgrids.
Energy Resource Management
Operations and maintenance (O&M) expenses can vary greatly from one energy solution to another. While a solar array or geothermal system may need very little ongoing maintenance, wind turbines and landfill-gas-to-energy systems require skilled technicians to keep them operating efficiently. Simply finding the right personnel to operate and maintain advanced energy systems can be a challenge, as technologies are changing rapidly.
Ameresco can provide complete O&M solutions or integrated solutions with training for existing staff. As an independent company with no products to sell, our customers can choose best-in-class energy equipment solutions and gain control over the costs to operate and maintain them.

Facilities Management
Facilities management is a vital link in the energy use chain. Simple changes to an energy management system, lighting equipment, maintenance procedures or building design can deliver significant energy savings annually. Changes to the ways that staff and tenants use a facility add to these savings.
Ameresco’s team of experienced energy efficiency engineers and technicians develops facility management solutions that consider every aspect of facility design and function, from skylights to water management and vending machines to cooling towers. We have helped universities, state governments and shopping mall developers take control of utility costs both in single buildings and across multiple sites. Ameresco develops maintenance and facility solutions that eliminate operational disruptions, fine-tunes energy management systems for optimal energy efficiency and implements training procedures that teach end users the important role they play in reaching energy use targets.
