In today’s energy efficiency market, there’s a fairly limited range of approaches to connecting customers with the products they need to save energy. Typically, these approaches incorporate an online storefront of some form and sometimes an instant rebate tool — but all too often, that's where it ends.

In many localities across our industry, fossil fuels are being phased out in favor of renewables. This transition, while in many ways positive, has created additional grid strain during peak hours and high-usage windows. On top of that, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to work around aging energy infrastructure unequipped to handle challenges such as severe weather or increasing consumer demand for things like EV charging. Regulatory pressures, such as those related to decarbonization goals and transition to renewables, are also be a contributing factor.

Since 2017, CLEAResult has supported electric vehicle (EV) adoption through various program models—from outreach and education, to incentive programs targeting vehicles and managed charging. Our work on these programs spans numerous states, coast-to-coast. Most of what this whitepaper focuses on is based on our experience in Arizona and California, where our programs have deployed EV charging infrastructure (EVCI) to public, workplace, and multifamily sites.

Austin, Texas (May 11, 2021) – With the launch of CLEAResult ATLAS™, CLEAResult laid out a vision for a connected energy future and a new era of innovative technology-based energy solutions. Already a leader in developing and implementing efficiency programs for utilities, CLEAResult is launching CLEAResult ATLAS™ Marketplace to provide a seamlessly connected shopping experience for utility customers. CLEAResult ATLAS™ Marketplace is a holistic commerce solution enabling direct purchasing of discounted energy-saving products and services, with simplified UX

With the launch of our unifying technology solution, CLEAResult ATLAS™, we began a journey that will define our efficiency efforts in the coming years. The holistic, modular nature of CLEAResult ATLAS™ enables us to bring congruent offerings to market, all grounded in the same foundation of connected data. These expansions serve as the spokes on the wheel of CLEAResult ATLAS™, strengthening its core functionality and channeling its universal data into a new context and purpose, adding distinct features and benefits of their own. 

With its shifting baselines and evolving consumer expectations, today’s energy efficiency market makes implementing and scaling utility programs in a cost- (and time-) effective way a distinct challenge. Disparate programs have often been managed separately, and if changes are made to one, those changes need to be made manually across other services to bring them all up to speed. Data and management tools can be isolated on proprietary platforms while implementers are siloed.

A dynamic system that builds connections between programs in unprecedented ways, CLEAResult ATLAS™ brings powerful synergy to traditionally siloed offerings.
