June 27, 2023, 1 p.m. ET

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 following including fuel-neutral turnkey utility energy service contracts (UESC). The turnkey 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.

  1. Contact the Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) UESC program manager Tracy Niro for support.

Are you responsible for a federal facility in an inactive utility service territory?

FEMP will work with you and the utility to educate and facilitate a UESC. Contact Tracy Niro for more information.

Is your utility missing from these maps?

These maps are evolving. If your utility is already providing energy management services and is missing from these maps, submit a message through the FEMP Assistance Request Portal.

Does your utility qualify to provide a UESC program?

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.

Is your utility considering providing a UESC program?

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