PORTLAND, MAINE, USA – HCI Solutions, LLC (HCI), a Maine based corporation, today announced that it has successfully completed the implementation of its iPlan™ Energy Governance solution for London based Evolve Energy Ltd (Evolve). This partnership marks HCI’s continued growth into the global marketplace by expanding its service offerings and technology into the UK market.
Evolve delivers integrated energy management solutions to commercial companies to reduce their energy usage, costs and emissions.

Evolve leverages proven technology and true innovation, to manage and deliver the changes needed to realize these savings. Evolve continues to assess, implement and monitor performance to sustain the best results for savings and energy reductions for its clients.
Over the past year, HCI and Evolve have partnered to deploy HCI’s Sustainable Facility Governance technology platform to support Evolve’s energy services business throughout the United Kingdom (UK). The implementation provides a streamlined business development process, improved energy capital planning capabilities, business process and technology optimization, and enhanced energy performance management, analysis and reporting tools.
“Our customers are facing material business challenges as a direct result of the 400% increase in their energy costs over the last two years. Evolve is delivering leading energy management solutions and technologies that produce the maximum possible sustainable savings for our valued clients. The savings that are realized through improved business processes and enhanced strategic decision making, as a result of our energy performance management tools, are passed through as a direct benefit to our customers” stated Tim Schneider, Executive Director of Evolve Energy, “HCI’s solutions also provide Evolve the opportunity to scale its facility and energy related services offerings to help maximize the return on investments made by our clients.”

The urgent need to identify the most optimum energy-saving systems and retrofits for facility assets is a critical issue facing organizations throughout the United Kingdom. The partnership between Evolve and HCI continues to assist organizations in addressing these significant challenges by simplifying and streamlining the energy investment decision-making process.
“With historically high energy prices and the need to address climate change through emissions reduction, we are at a point when we must make responsible energy-related investment decisions. These decisions have a dramatic impact on facilities’ near-term performance, but also have long-term impacts on the sustainability of our world” according to Jim Kavanagh, President of HCI. “We are very pleased to partner with Evolve Energy on this important initiative and to help their clients meet the challenges of the demanding marketplace.”
