On the owner's side of every energy project.
EverWatt, in Hayward, California, engineers, funds, builds and verifies the energy work across your buildings: lighting, HVAC, controls, EV charging, storage and more. One contract. One number to call.
The work, building by building.
What we did, what it saves and what it meant for the owner. The figures are the ones each project reported, with their own qualifiers.

Hire an owner's representative, not another contractor.
A contractor is hired for one scope. An owner's representative is responsible for the whole portfolio and answers for it.
A typical contractor
- Hired for one job, one scope
- Paid to sell you a product, usually their own
- You coordinate the engineer, the utility, the financing and the subs
- Rebates nobody applied for stay on the table
- Done when the job is done; the next one starts from zero
EverWatt as your owner's rep
- Sits on your side of the table, with no product to push, paid on what you save
- Responsible for your whole energy portfolio, not one building
- Engineering, financing, incentives, subcontractors and compliance through one point of contact
- Picks the equipment, chases every rebate, runs the install
- One number for O&M, warranty and every question after
Nine service lines, one contract.

Questions we get on the first call.
Do you only do lighting?
No. Lighting is where most portfolios start, but we deliver building automation, HVAC and controls, EV charging, electrification, battery storage and microgrids, solar, and the engineering and incentive work behind all of it, under one contract.
How does the financing work?
Most projects cost nothing up front. We engineer and build the work, and you pay from the verified savings, through utility on-bill financing or a pay-from-savings agreement. Utility and state incentives are filed by us and credited to the project.
Who is eligible?
Commercial, institutional and government facilities that pay their own utility bill, have held the account for more than a year and are in good standing. The project has to produce net savings from day one; if it doesn't, we'll tell you.
Does this work for public agencies and hospitals?
Yes. Health systems, universities, K-12 districts, cities and counties are most of our work. We handle permitting under the agency's jurisdiction, HCAI for hospitals and DSA for schools, and build while the facility stays open.
Can we use our own contractor?
Usually. If you have an electrical or mechanical contractor you trust and they meet our requirements, they can do the installation. As owner's representative we vet, schedule and manage them either way.
Where do you work?
Headquartered in Hayward, California, with completed projects in 8 states. Most of our portfolio clients are in California; we travel for the rest.
Start with one building or your whole portfolio.
A 30-minute call with an EverWatt engineer, not a salesperson. Then a site survey with loggers on the plants that matter, and a proposal with the savings, the incentives and the financing laid out.
