ENERGY STRATEGIC PLANNING
An Energy Strategic Plan can help large-scale energy users better manage their energy costs and consumption, enhancing both financial performance and environmental impact. At MEI, an Energy Strategic Plan encompasses and coordinates activities in four key areas of energy strategy and performance: auditing, procurement, funding, and policy.
An Energy Strategic Plan can guide management decision-making, and has the advantage of offering a holistic approach to energy management so that each element of the Plan enhances and supports the other elements.

MEI has developed Energy Strategic Plans for scores of clients, including very large and complex, multi-facility organizations and institutions in the educational, government and public utility, manufacturing, healthcare, social service, and non-profit sectors. We are expert at understanding the implications of using green and alternative energies, and routinely help clients identify and procure green energy for either all or a portion of their energy needs. MEI’s expertise in Energy Strategic Plan development is built upon the broad experience of our staff, including:
- Extensive experience advising clients on energy procurement options, including green and alternative energy. MEI staff has decades of experience procuring electricity, natural gas, fuel oil, and alternative energy sources for large-volume and complex end-users, including those with multiple facilities across several states. MEI has procured energy for clients up and down the East Coast and as far west as Illinois.
- Identifying procurement and Energy Efficiency Measure (EEM) opportunities and developing action plans. Our team uses its analytical, engineering, regulatory, and financial expertise to develop comprehensive energy programs that incorporate best practices, innovative procedures, and support for key management and facility personnel.
- Conducting energy bill audits and reconciliation services. MEI’s expertise in conducting effective billing analysis and reconciliation services has saved millions of dollars for clients. MEI will ensure that bills received from the energy providers are accurate.
- Developing an optimal facilities operating strategy. Our team has the analytical and engineering experience to develop operating strategies for existing power generating assets that minimizes the price of purchased power and responds to varying natural gas and purchased electric prices.
- Grant, rebate, and EEM compliancy assistance. National, state, and local organizations, as well as utilities, encourage energy-efficiency improvements through a variety of financial incentives. There are also state and federal incentives available for businesses that purchase and install renewable energy systems. Our staff is knowledgeable about current government incentives and can assist clients with end-to-end solutions to find the programs that are best suited for your objectives.
