Market Opportunity• The Department of Defense consumes ~2% of the world’s energy• Approximately 40-60% of energy consumptions is buildings• The United States government is the largest landlord in the country• Most buildings built before the 2000 can benefit from a 20-30% gain

in efficiency and savings by improving the Energy Program• Most real estate and property management companies in the United

States do not have an Energy Program
