How facilities use, waste, and control power
Three systems. One bill.
Energy Management
You can't fix what you don't measure. We benchmark every meter against its building type, flag the circuits running when nobody's on site, and give facilities and finance the same number to argue over. Monitor, benchmark, optimize — in that order.

Energy Reduction
Demand charges can run 30–70% of a large account's bill, and every one of them is set by a single 15-minute interval you probably didn't notice happening. We build the peak-shaving and load-shifting plan that keeps that interval from costing you all year.

Power Solutions
Some facilities are better off generating some of their own. We evaluate on-site generation and bring-your-own-power arrangements against your actual load, not a brochure case study, so you know the real payback before you sign anything.
See generation optionsThe number that starts every conversation
Nearly a third of what you pay for never does any work.
Roughly 30% of the energy a typical commercial or industrial facility consumes is wasted — lost to idle equipment, unmanaged demand, and systems no one is watching.
For most large energy users, the utility bill is treated as a fixed cost — a number that shows up monthly and gets paid, not a system that can be managed.
Energy is one of the top five operating costs at most industrial and large commercial sites — and one of the least actively managed.
Three systems, one strategy
Everything that touches your energy bill is a system you can run.
Most facilities manage none of these on purpose. LCI Energy helps you take deliberate control of all three.
Demand — the peak that sets your rate
Utilities don’t just bill you for how much power you use — they bill you for your worst 15 minutes. Our Energy Management work identifies what's driving those peaks and puts controls in place so a single bad interval doesn't set your rate for the next twelve months.

The waste hiding in plain sight
Idle motors, oversized compressors, lighting and HVAC running on nobody's schedule. Energy Reduction finds it, prices the fix, and tracks the savings against your actual bill.

On-site generation, backup capacity, and procurement strategy give large users a hedge against volatile rates and grid risk. Power Solutions builds the case, models the payback, and manages the project from design through commissioning.
See Power SolutionsHow they work together
Demand, efficiency, and generation aren't separate projects — a facility that manages its peaks also uses less, and a facility that generates its own power changes both. We build a single plan across all three, not a stack of unrelated fixes.

Where the money actually goes
One bad quarter-hour can set your electric rate for a year.
Most demand-based tariffs charge you for your single highest 15-minute interval of the month — not your average use. A compressor cycling on at the wrong moment, a batch process overlapping a shift change, and that spike becomes the number your utility bills against for the next twelve billing cycles.
LCI Energy's demand analysis pinpoints exactly what's causing those peaks and builds a control plan — load shifting, staged startups, or battery buffering — so your facility stops paying a premium for a moment that lasted fifteen minutes.
Read how we cut a peak If energy is one of your top five operating costs, we should talk.
That's the threshold where a dedicated energy strategy pays for itself — and it's exactly where our clients sit.
What we believe
Energy shouldn't be the cost you don't manage.
LCI Energy exists to put large commercial and industrial facilities back in control of their power — what they use, what they waste, and what they could generate themselves.
We measure before we recommend
Every engagement starts with real interval data from your meters, not a generic audit checklist.
We stand behind the numbers
Savings projections are built from your actual usage and tracked against your actual bill after the work is done.
We work for the facility, not the vendor
Our recommendations aren't tied to one equipment brand or one utility program — we pick what actually fits your site.
We stay after the project closes
Systems drift. We check back in, because a plan that isn't monitored slowly turns back into waste.
Why facilities call us first
Over 100 years of combined expertise, 300+ accounts deep.
Our engineers have spent careers inside plants, hospitals, and distribution centers — reading meter data, chasing demand spikes, and specifying the generation equipment that actually gets installed. That's where our 100+ years of combined expertise comes from.
We currently manage relationships with more than 300 commercial and industrial accounts across the country, which means we've likely already solved a version of the problem sitting on your desk.
In their words
What our clients tell us
They showed us the math before they showed us a proposal. Our demand charges were a bigger line than we realized — and they had a plan to bring them down.
Staggered startups and load management cut our peak without slowing the line. Plain English the whole way, no vendor games.
LCI treated our energy problem like it was theirs. They picked up the phone every time and told us what would actually pay for itself.
Take control of your systems.
One call gets your facility a real conversation about demand, efficiency, and generation — not a sales pitch.
