ENERGY SERVICES
Energy Efficiency
Every day at SSM we look for new ways to grow our footprint, expand our services, increase our capacity, and escalate our opportunities to make an impact on the world. We believe in improving the quality of life for our clients, our employees, and for all the people touched by the work that we do. It’s this mission that drives the services and goals of the new division: transforming buildings into comfortable, efficient, healthy, spaces to live and work.
Energy consulting, evaluations, education, and strategic and technical advising. Saving money and reducing energy uncertainty is good business. Our customary services for site and building infrastructure touch nearly every aspect of a company’s carbon footprint, including water and waste management; comfort and process cooling, heating, and ventilation; electric supply, distribution, lighting and backup.

Combining the Strengths of Engineering and Energy Services
Since the founding of Practical Energy Solutions (PES) in 2006, our team has had a singular focus: reducing energy consumption in government buildings, educational institutions, and commercial facilities in the Mid-Atlantic region. We grew from a company that performed operational assessments and energy audits of commercial buildings, to a company with a broad base of services for the energy sector.
PES is now a part of Spotts, Stevens and McCoy (SSM).
For more than 90 years, SSM has worked with local communities, industries, educational, health care and government clients to enhance the quality of life for the people touched by our work. As a recognized leader in Municipal Engineering and Engineering Consulting, we've assisted our clients in the planning, growth, and well-being of their communities. We provide a full range of engineering services, covering all municipal engineering services and more. Our staff of engineers, planners, geologists, surveyors and landscape architects integrates technologies with sound engineering judgment and experience to meet our clients’ needs.
