Utilities Offering Federal Utility Energy Service Contracts

Visit the General Services Administration website to see a list of Areawide Contracts for Utility Services.

The Energy Policy Act of 1992 (codified as 42 USC Section 8256 (c) Utility Incentive Programs) authorizes and encourages agencies to participate in generally available utility programs to increase energy efficiency; conserve water; or manage electricity demand conducted by gas, water, or electric utilities.

The turnkey utility energy service contracts (UESC) process characteristically includes a no-cost or low-cost preliminary assessment, a negotiated-cost feasibility study (or investment grade audit), a firm-fixed price proposal, financing as needed, installation, and performance assurance.

  • If your facility's serving utility is on this map, follow these steps.

    1. Contact the Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) through the Technical Assistance for Distributed Energy Projects portal for support.
       
    2. Download the most current U.S. General Services Administration's areawide contracts for utility services. In particular, review Article 18: Utility Energy Service Contracts.

  • FEMP will work with you and the utility to educate and facilitate a UESC. Submit an inquiry through the Technical Assistance for Distributed Energy Projects portal for more information.

  • These maps are evolving. If your utility is already providing energy management services and is missing from these maps, submit a message through the Technical Assistance for Distributed Energy Projects portal.

  • Utilities that provide natural gas, electricity, or water to a federal facility are qualified to provide energy management services. See the legislative authority and other enabling resources for more information.

  • FEMP can educate and assist utilities interested in developing a program.
