Many owners work directly with design-build contractors or energy service companies to implement, and sometimes finance, their energy projects. Our past experience shows an owner's representation by a qualified engineering firm throughout the project process increases project energy savings, reduces costs, reduces the owner's liabilities and risks, and mitigates disputes. Cogent Energy acts as an owner's technical adversary to ensure the owner is adequately represented throughout a project and avert issues that many unrepresented customers have historically endured.
