Through a competitive selection process, the U.S. Department of Energy has awarded Constellation Energy Projects & Services Group (CEPS) two Federal government Regional Super Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPCs): Mid-Atlantic Regional Super ESPC, and Midwest Regional Super ESPC. In addition, CEPS holds technology-specific Super ESPCs in Geothermal and Biomass & Alternate Methane Fuels (BAMF).

CEPS develops, finances and implements energy savings projects at qualified facilities in return for fixed payments from the cost savings of the projects. The payment terms are negotiated and the facility retains all remaining cost savings after the contract term expires. These projects will assist federal agencies in meeting their energy savings mandates, while reducing energy, operating and maintenance costs and reducing our dependence on foreign oil.

CEPS, a member of Constellation Energy, is a full-service energy company that provides Federal Agencies and business with comprehensive and creative solutions to meet the diverse and vast energy needs of their respective facilities.
