(firmenpresse) - CROMWELL, CT and WORCESTER, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 10/17/11 -- World Energy Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: XWES), a leading energy management services firm, today announced it has purchased Northeast Energy Solutions, LLC (NES), a privately-held energy efficiency company. The acquisition provides World Energy an immediate foothold in the New England market, where utility incentives are available for commercial and industrial energy efficiency projects.
The move accelerates the growth of World Energy's energy efficiency practice, complementing the recent addition of Bruce Buckbee and John Duquette, who joined the Company in July. Together, this expanded team provides World Energy the expertise, relationships and capabilities to plan and execute comprehensive energy efficiency services, including lighting, mechanical and HVAC retrofits and energy management systems for small and mid-sized C&I customers.
"The energy efficiency market holds great potential for World Energy," said Richard Domaleski, CEO of World Energy Solutions. "Not only is it a large and growing market, but more and more customers are asking for our help with efficiency as we take on a wider swath of their energy management needs. The addition of NES bolsters our energy efficiency capabilities, giving us immediate access to new customers and cross-sell opportunities."
Added Robert Boissonneault, Founding Partner, NES: "There is a big opportunity for a trusted brand like World Energy to gain share in the energy efficiency market for small and medium-sized businesses, a segment currently served by numerous, small niche players. Based on our success in this market, we are excited about what we can accomplish as part of World Energy."
Based in Cromwell, CT, NES has flourished as a regional provider of energy efficiency services, completing numerous energy efficient HVAC, refrigeration controls and other mechanical system upgrades for its commercial, industrial and institutional customers. Today's deal marks the second in as many months for World Energy, which recently announced the acquisition of Co-eXprise's energy procurement business (please see press release dated September 14, 2011).
