EISA (Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007)

The Federal Government appropriated $787 billion in Federal Stimulus money and much of it going to Energy Management including green retrofits of publicly owned buildings.

Between 1990 and 2008, the Energy Management Services Market has grown from approximately $200 million annually to nearly $20 billion.

By 2013, the estimated market for energy service is estimated to approach $40 billion.

The Reason: The greenest and most inexpensive energy we now have is conservation. Whatever the fuel, conservation is the smartest thing we can do for our business, our children and the planet we must all take care of.

• 18 percent by FY 2011
• 21 percent by FY 2012
