Smarter Campus Infrastructure for Academic Excellence

Optimize energy performance, modernize aging infrastructure, and align capital planning with institutional goals.

Reduce campus utility costs by an average of 20% or more.

From academic buildings and research labs to residence halls and central plants, we help campuses reduce costs, improve resiliency, and reinvest savings into their core mission—education and research.

Improve Campus Energy Performance Without Compromising Operations

Iconergy delivers integrated energy and infrastructure strategies that help institutions improve operational efficiency, extend asset life, and fund critical upgrades—without disrupting campus operations. We serve as a trusted technical and financial partner from planning through long-term performance.

Reliable Infrastructure Supports Learning, Research, & Student Experience

Campus infrastructure directly impacts the academic environment—from temperature control in classrooms and labs to power reliability in data centers and research facilities. By modernizing energy systems and strengthening resiliency, institutions can minimize disruptions, enhance safety, and create environments where students and faculty can thrive.

Measurable Outcomes for Higher Education Institutions

Engineering-driven strategies aligned with academic and financial priorities.

Services

Commissioning

We make sure newly installed equipment operates to design and is integrated with necessary controls systems campus-wide.

Energy Modeling

Know what your building’s energy usage will be after new construction, renovation, or addition project with estimated utility bills based off anticipated building size and environmental systems.

Retro-Commissioning

A strategy to implement campus-wide for existing buildings that don’t seem to be operating as efficiently as they could.

Monitoring-Based Commissioning

A dashboard for facilities staff can use to see a real-time snapshot of integrated equipment usage.

Energy Audits

Create a roadmap campus-wide to know which equipment to upgrade or replace to obtain the best simple payback over time and meet operations demands.

Energy Performance Contracting

A financial solution to meeting capital investment planning and deferred maintenance needs without upfront capital.

Proven Savings for Higher Education Campuses

At California Institute of Technology’s Jet Propulsion Lab (JPL), our team delivered a multi-phase energy upgrade that showcases how savings can modernize even the most complex facilities without disrupting mission-critical operations
