DMI is a preferred technical service provider for many regional energy utilities, providing analytical and customer support for their energy efficiency programs. We assist utility customers in navigating these programs and provide analysis in support of incentive applications.
DMI also performs several services directly for the utilities. We have an ongoing role in providing the evaluation services that help assess program effectiveness. We provide development assistance to help utility programs adapt to new technologies and ever-improving standards of practice in design, construction, and operation. We also perform post-inspection and commissioning services to verify the installation and operation of energy efficiency projects.

Whether for a new construction project or the renovation of an existing facility, DMI provides services that assist project design and development teams throughout each phase of the project. We can be involved as early as schematic design, and continue our involvement through construction and into the post-occupancy phase. The earlier we are brought onto a project team, the more effectively we can impact the eventual design. By focusing specifically on energy performance, we are able to track important details that are otherwise easy to lose sight of during the design and construction process. By using DMI as a resource, our design and construction clients provide added value to building owners by delivering a project with optimized energy performance and systems that are easy to operate and maintain.

DMI provides direct services to building owners to help minimize energy consumption throughout their facilities. This can include facility walk-throughs to identify potential opportunities, utility planning and allocation studies, and other related services. While these services are often delivered in support of utility-sponsored incentive programs, we also enjoy taking on projects that may be outside of the normal scope of the typical rebate analysis.
DMI provides retro-commissioning and continuous commissioning services to ensure that existing systems operations are optimized, meeting or exceeding the design intent of their initial installation.

DMI has relationships with many large commercial and institutional clients to provide ongoing energy services for multi-building and campus-style facilities. This includes building walk-through energy audits, design review of new construction to identify opportunities, and commissioning and retro-commissioning services to confirm efficient operation of individual building and central plant systems.
We enjoy the opportunity to become experts on the intricacies of a client's facility, and that expertise is often developed incrementally over the course of several projects.

DMI provides various energy services to help municipalities minimize energy cost and improve services to their citizens. Energy-consuming systems such as water supply, waste water treatment, and street lights offer important opportunities to save energy, and rebates offered by the utility companies provide a resource to offset implementation costs and reduce payback. DMI assists in assessing whether new equipment is necessary to reduce energy costs or whether existing equipment could be returned to more efficient working order by maintenance and adjustment.
