Energy Savings Performance Contracting (ESPC)
Provide your facility with a healthy and sustainable environment with Con Edison Solutions.
ESPC
Energy Savings Performance Contracting (ESPC) is a multi-faceted service that encompasses all aspects of an energy construction project, including the following:
- Design
- Engineering
- Development
- Financing
- Construction
- Performance
Many of our clients have utilized ESPC to replace aging, inefficient, or high-maintenance equipment with new, state-of-the-art, energy-efficient equipment requiring little or no capital outlay through this specialized approach to financing.
An ESPC project can improve occupant comfort by facilitating healthy and sustainable indoor environments without negatively impacting budgets, so our clients can continue to focus on their core missions—whether that is in government, education, or healthcare.
With a Con Edison Solutions ESPC, you can redirect a portion of your current utility and operational budgets into needed energy infrastructure improvements, significantly reducing or eliminating the need to appropriate capital dollars.
Other benefits include local economic development, “green job” creation, and demonstration of environmental stewardship within your community.

VIDEO CASE STUDY
Administrators from the Veterans Integrated Service Network Six (VISN 6), a network of seven Veterans Affairs Medical Centers (VAMCs) in West Virginia, Virginia, and North Carolina, chose to pursue an Energy Savings Performance Contract (ESPC) to reduce their energy consumption while upgrading their energy infrastructure and equipment. Con Edison Solutions delivered a comprehensive ESPC program that helped the VAMC staff achieve their mission of delivering high-quality comfort and care to our U.S. military service veterans and their visitors.
By implementing a full range of energy conservation measures, Con Edison Solutions eliminated years of deferred energy infrastructure maintenance and reduced energy and water use across seven VAMCs in three states. The Con Edison Solutions ESPC program achieved a source-adjusted energy reduction of 31% (380,224 MMBtu) and a reduction of water/sewage of 18% (48,686 kgal) in its first year, compared to the FY 2015 baseline.
