Executive Summary

This report provides Chief Sustainability Officers, Strategy Directors and VPs of Sustainability with independent analysis of energy management software acquisitions. Verdantix selected this subject because over the past 18 months several large firms have acquired energy management software providers and integrated them into their broader energy management and sustainability offerings. Verdantix analysis finds that firms acquiring energy management software to boost their service offerings have four distinct profiles. The timing of these purchases is important as energy management climbs the corporate agenda, spending on these services and products is growing, energy management software and energy management expertise is limited and customers are starting to look for a more complete energy management offering from providers.
