Our company was founded by Ted Howell, an engineer and educator who spent years working with energy service companies developing energy programs for hundreds of schools, colleges, and state and local governments. However, the area never effectively addressed by the ESCO’s was the clients’ involvement in energy conservation. Because of this need, “the people side of energy conservation” has become the backbone of Energy Instruction Group today. EIG helps institutions make significant reduction in operating costs through a variety of energy conservation programs with little or no capital expenditures.
