Doug really goes above and beyond. I can shoot him a text message, and he will follow through and take care of any issues I’ve had without me having to remind him. It’s great to see that kind of attention to customers and relationships in this day and age.

Working with Doug over the past years has brought valuable input into our company's energy management. Doug uses an analytical and thorough approach to help guide clients to the most optimized energy arrangements possible, always keeping the customer's best interests in mind. Using energy wisely will become increasingly important, and Doug provides open-minded guidance in today's energy jungle.
Doug is always the first person I reach out to when I have any lighting or facility energy questions. There is never any need to reach out to a second person.
Great communication, very responsive to energy market conditions. Honest and trustworthy.

I have known and worked with Doug closely on several projects since 2017 and can honestly say that he has true passion for what he does and cares deeply for his customers, not to mention friends and family. I have been inspired and have learned a great deal from Doug throughout the years and I have been witness to the amount of work and thought he brings to the table when it comes to delivering a quality service and outcome to his customers.

Doug was great to work with while performing our lighting upgrade improvements in our industrial facility. Doug was responsive to our needs and provided solutions for our best options with built-in future improvements. The facility had over 270 fixtures and had an average foot-candle reading of 12 to 15. The new fixtures were installed, and we are now at 25 to 35 fc with fixtures 30 feet from the ground. Doug also went out of his way to work with purchasing on our payment terms to ensure both parties were satisfied. I would recommend working with Doug for your current or future lighting needs.
About Me
Helping businesses navigate energy isn't just my job—it's my passion. Knowing I've helped someone make smarter decisions and save money is what drives me.
For more than 20 years, I’ve helped businesses take control of their energy—from developing private power systems to securing supply contracts and improving efficiency. My clients rely on me as a trusted partner, helping them make smarter, more confident energy decisions.
Today, I work with companies in deregulated states to broker energy supply agreements. I also help businesses explore on-site energy generation projects like solar, battery storage, and natural gas generation by guiding internal teams and connecting them to vetted vendors.
In addition I design custom LED lighting solutions and offer direct access to high-quality products at wholesale prices. And I share practical energy advice with 10,000+ business professionals on LinkedIn. My goal is to make complex energy choices clear, profitable, and easy to act on.
