We’d be happy to hear from you and answer any of your questions about Power TakeOff services.
Small and midsize businesses (SMBs) account for >85% of all non-residential accounts, yet this customer segment is often missed by standardized, one-size fits all programs that fail to meet their unique, ever-changing needs. Today, SMB customers are seeking personalized programs, tailored recommendations, and adaptable virtual communications. Power TakeOff can help. By focusing on low and no-cost energy saving actions, without the burden of on-site visits, program costs, and enrollment paperwork, the Virtual Commissioning® (VCx®) energy efficiency program delivers an exceptional customer experience with proven results.
In 2020, the Midwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (MEEA) awarded its Inspiring Efficiency Innovation Award to ComEd. As the program creator and manager, Power TakeOff first launched the VCx™ energy efficiency program in ComEd’s Illinois service territory starting in 2016.
