Five Companies Earn Industry-Leading Accreditation from the National Association of Energy Service Companies

Washington, DC, November 25, 2024—The National Association of Energy Service Companies (NAESCO), the leading advocacy and accreditation association representing companies modernizing the nation's building infrastructure, announces the accreditation of five companies. These companies have demonstrated the highest levels of professionalism, technical expertise, and ethical standards, making them exemplary partners for building infrastructure and energy efficiency projects.

NAESCO's rigorous accreditation process involves a comprehensive evaluation of a company's technical and managerial competencies. Three categories of accreditation are offered: Energy Service Provider (ESP), Energy Service Company (ESCO), and Energy Efficiency Contractor (EEC).

All applications are evaluated by an independent committee comprised of industry experts. This process guarantees a thorough assessment of applicants' fundamental skills and business methodologies. The committee looks at criteria such as the precise nature of the applicant's business, the range of measures and services offered to customers, the availability of a performance-based project approach, and the applicant’s ethical business practice commitment.

Following the fall 2024 application review, three companies have successfully secured re-accreditation, and two companies obtained accreditation for the first time.

Re-Accredited

Energy Service Company (ESCO):

  • ABM Industries
  • PATH Company LLC
  • Wendel Energy Services

Newly Accredited

Energy Service Company (ESCO):

  • DCO Energy
  • Energy Efficient Investments

NAESCO-accredited companies play a vital role in revitalizing aging infrastructure, building resilient energy systems, and driving down energy consumption.

Accreditation opportunities are available twice a year, in the spring and fall. NAESCO membership is a prerequisite for accreditation eligibility. The next application round will open in January 2025. For more information about NAESCO and its accreditation process, please visit https://www.naesco.org/accreditation/.
