The ECM Strategic Profiler is highly customizable and is thoroughly vetted with focus on customers’ short-term and long-term goals. It fits in perfectly with ECM’s three-pronged approach to business strategy—supply, demand, and sustainability. With this powerful strategy, ECM boasts of a high customer satisfaction rate, and they're already serving the needs of many Fortune 500 companies in the U.S. For instance, take the case of a Fortune 500 client that wanted to enhance sustainability efforts but found themselves in a cost-cutting period, with the assumption that no additional energy savings were possible. ECM employed its three pronged approach, analyzing supply, demand and renewables to empower the client with better purchasing capability, as well as reducing the demand on their energy equipments with better energy solutions. This altogether helped the client save about $2 million annually and embrace a green endeavor that reduced carbon emissions and shifted energy consumption from on-peak to off-peak.
Garcia is confident that ECM's wholesale procurement capabilities, experience with on-site renewable generation, cogeneration, demand response and energy storage has uniquely positioned them to assist larger clients thinking about developing their own microgrids. Going forward, the firm seeks to promote environment friendly energy solutions that will strike a right balance between eco-friendly endeavors and revenue generation. “At ECM, we go to great lengths to identify savings that others simply are unable to find—whether it’s leveraging thermal storage to effectively deliver low flow/low temp air side savings or understanding the demand component of electric commodity to better evaluate all levels of energy. We leave no stone unturned,” concludes Garcia.
