ENERGY OPERATIONS FOR THE BUILDINGS THAT SPIKE

Make energy a lever for higher Net Operating Income.

NOI finds where utility spend, peak demand and operating risk are weighing on a property’s NOI. For qualifying sites, we structure the capital, coordinate licensed delivery partners, and remain accountable for the solar and battery operating case.

No-cost 30-minute commercial review · No utility bill required to start

For qualifying commercial properties. Every case depends on the tariff, load, site, ownership structure and project agreement.

The property case

Energy reaches NOI in three places.

Lower controllable operating expense

We start with the tariff and measured load to identify which utility-cost components may be reduced through solar, storage or operating changes.

Capture eligible energy value

Where programs, tariffs and ownership support it, state programs pay commercial batteries per kW of measured dispatch — in Connecticut, $325/kW-yr for years 1–5 under Energy Storage Solutions (verified August 2026, program manual) — modeled separately from bill savings.

Protect operating performance

Monitoring, dispatch, maintenance coordination and resilience planning help protect the operating case after the energy asset is commissioned.

The treatment of savings, payments and resilience depends on leases, recoveries, accounting, program rules and the executed agreement.

One example · Peak demand

A short operating peak can affect a full month of demand charges.

On commercial tariffs with billed-demand charges, a short interval of high load may materially affect that month’s utility cost. A correctly sized and operated battery may reduce the peak recorded by the utility. Whether that value reaches property NOI depends on the tariff, dispatch performance, leases and expense recoveries.

MODELED PEAK MANAGEMENT

With modeled storage dispatch

The modeled control strategy attempts to reduce qualifying peaks within the battery’s power, energy and state-of-charge constraints.

Illustrative only—not customer data, measured performance or guaranteed savings. Actual billed demand and financial effect depend on the utility tariff, billing interval, ratchets, load profile, battery constraints, dispatch and operating agreement. Demand determinants, intervals and ratchets vary by tariff and utility.
Underwrite first

We underwrite the property before we specify the equipment.

A battery or solar array is not automatically an NOI strategy. The tariff must contain an addressable cost, the site must support the asset, the capital structure must fit the owner’s plan, and the operating case must survive realistic assumptions. If those conditions do not hold, we say so before design work begins.

The underwriting method
  • 01Tariff and meter before technology
  • 02Property constraints before equipment selection
  • 03Savings separated from eligible payments
  • 04Assumptions and sensitivities stated in writing
One accountable partner

The NOI case does not end at installation.

NOI connects the parts that usually sit with separate vendors: property underwriting, capital coordination, licensed delivery, interconnection, monitoring, dispatch, maintenance coordination and program reporting. The licensed installer performs the construction. NOI remains accountable for the operating case defined in the agreement.

The delivery network

Specialists deliver the equipment. NOI keeps the property case connected.

NOI works with licensed EPCs, engineers, technology manufacturers and commercial capital providers. Each project names who is responsible for engineering, installation, equipment, financing and operations.

Tesla

Commercial and community-scale battery equipment

EcoFlow PowerOcean

Modular LFP storage equipment

Polarium

Swedish-engineered commercial storage equipment

Manufacturer names indicate approved equipment, not an endorsement of NOI by the manufacturer or participation in a specific project.
