It’s about having someone who can analyze consumption patterns, guide customers through efficiency programs, and actually make sense of all those energy audits while keeping everyone happy. The catch? Finding professionals who combine deep technical knowledge with genuine customer support skills feels nearly impossible. And when you do find them locally, they’re either already taken or commanding premium salaries that make your CFO nervous.
Look, the reality is that energy efficiency consulting has become incredibly specialized.
