Highlights from the Albireo Energy 2022 ESG Report include:

• Establishing and quantifying the Albireo Energy Sustainability Solutions portfolio, recognizing that 66% of the company’s gross revenue is directly attributed to helping customers address sustainability goals.
• The Albireo Energy Sustainability Solutions portfolio delivered $12.6 million in energy cost savings for building owners in 2022 which translates into a reduction of 58,000 MWh of electricity usage and 780,000 therms of natural gas consumption.
• Energy reduction and renewable energy procurement results in an estimated 68,000 Metric Tons of Carbon Dioxide Equivalent (MTCO2 e) of avoided emissions for Albireo Energy’s customers.¹
• Addressing the environmental impact of the company’s footprint, moving into newer and more efficient buildings, and consolidating numerous office locations serving the same geographic markets while continuing to grow the size of the workforce.
• Growing remote services footprint, offering customers in two of the company’s largest markets, New York and Delaware, the option to troubleshoot system issues without technicians driving to their locations. This offered double the benefit of fuel efficiency and building productivity.
• Achieving Certified™ by Great Place to Work® for the fifth year in a row. Plus, as part of the company’s winning culture, 120 employees awarded their peers with Shining Star recognitions for their exceptional customer contributions.

¹ In 2022, Albireo delivered over 5,100 projects with one or more sustainable services. For services that improve energy efficiency, Albireo Energy calculated the estimated energy cost-savings for each project. The cost-savings were calculated based on industry studies on return-on-investment for building efficiency upgrades, studies and reports on implemented technologies, and Albireo Energy’s experience as an energy services provider. Each service was estimated to provide varying cost-savings, which were calculated as a percentage of the gross revenue assumed to deliver direct impact. This methodology and actual calculations were reviewed by a third-party expert in environmental impact calculations. Our environmental impact calculations are preliminary, unaudited, and subject to revision.
