Accreditation Programs
The Accreditation Process
Companies seeking NAESCO-Accredited status must apply to a
committee of industry experts who are unaffiliated with any particular
ESCO or any other company under consideration for accreditation, and undergo a rigorous examination
of their core competencies and business practices. The committee
carefully reviews the detailed documentation submitted and consults
with selected customer references.
The committee looks at criteria including the following: 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; ethical business practice commitment; project
engineering and design, financing, project management, operations, and
maintenance capabilities; and the capability of verifying and
monitoring energy cost savings.
