One relationship.
Every energy project.
EverWatt engineers, finances, builds and stands behind the energy work across your buildings — lighting, HVAC, building automation, EV charging, battery storage and more. You call one number. We handle the rest.
More than lighting. A full energy portfolio under one roof.
Each service line is engineered, financed and delivered by EverWatt. Mix them per building or roll them out across a portfolio.

Hire an owner's representative, not another contractor.
A contractor is hired to do one scope. An owner's rep is responsible for the whole portfolio — and answers for it.
A typical contractor
- —Hired for one job, one scope
- —Paid to sell you a product — usually theirs
- —You coordinate the engineer, the utility, the financing and the subs
- —Rebates nobody applied for stay on the table
- —Done when the job is done; the next one starts from zero
EverWatt as your owner's rep
- ✓Sits on your side of the table — no product to push, paid on what you save
- ✓Responsible for your whole energy portfolio, not one building
- ✓Engineering, financing, incentives, subcontractors and compliance — one point of contact
- ✓We do the shopping: vet the subs, chase every rebate, pick the equipment
- ✓One number for O&M, warranty and every question after
One retrofit? Any contractor can do that. A portfolio across dozens of sites and five technologies is what we're built for. How an engagement runs →

Read the case study →Upgrades that pay for themselves — often from day one.
We structure the project so it's paid for out of what it saves. Zero capital is an option, not a stretch goal.
Utility On-Bill Financing
Repaid on your existing utility bill. We handle the application and the paperwork.
Pay from savings
We fund the project; you pay only a share of the verified savings. Nothing up front.
Incentives & rebates
Utility and state programs, identified and filed by us, credited to your project.
How we secure them →Start with one building or your whole portfolio.
A 30-minute call with an EverWatt engineer. No sales script — just a look at your buildings and what's worth doing first.
or call (510) 730-0062
Questions we get on the first call.
Do you only do lighting?
No. Lighting is where most portfolios start, but we deliver building automation, HVAC and controls, EV charging, electrification, battery storage and microgrids, solar, and the engineering and incentive work behind all of it — under one contract.
How does the financing work?
Most projects cost nothing up front. We engineer and build the work, and you pay from the verified savings — through utility on-bill financing or a pay-from-savings agreement. Utility and state incentives are filed by us and credited to the project.
Who is eligible?
Commercial, institutional and government facilities that pay their own utility bill, have held the account for more than a year and are in good standing. The project has to produce net savings from day one — if it doesn't, we'll tell you.
Does this work for public agencies and hospitals?
Yes. Health systems, universities, K-12 districts, cities and counties are most of our work. We handle permitting under the agency's jurisdiction — HCAI for hospitals, DSA for schools — and build while the facility stays open.
Can we use our own contractor?
Usually. If you have an electrical or mechanical contractor you trust and they meet our requirements, they can do the installation. As owner's representative we vet, schedule and manage them either way.
What happens if the scope changes mid-project?
We document it. If the change moves cost or terms materially, we issue a modification agreement before proceeding. No surprises on the invoice.
How do we get started?
A 30-minute call with an engineer, then a site survey. You'll get a proposal with the savings, the incentives and the financing options laid out — usually within a couple of weeks.
Where do you work?
Headquartered in Hayward, California, with completed projects in 8 states. Most of our portfolio clients are in California; we travel for the rest.
