New York has awarded contracts to eight large-scale battery projects that could deliver 950 MW of on-demand, emissions-free power by 2030.

That’s a meaningful advance toward a more reliable grid—one that can store renewable energy when it’s abundant and deliver it when demand is highest. It could also cut reliance on costly, polluting peaker plants.

What makes this especially interesting is the contract structure: it gives battery projects the long-term revenue certainty they need to get built, while requiring developers to pay money back if market revenues exceed projections.

The state stepped in with a market-based contract in hopes of jump-starting the big battery construction that has so far proved elusive.

We found a geothermal project being scaled in a development of 100 residential homes. This is worth watching.

A new neighborhood outside Denver has nearly 100 homes equipped with ground-source heat pumps, using the stable temperature below ground to provide heating and cooling. The model could help reduce electricity use, ease peak demand, and avoid the need for additional gas infrastructure.

What stands out is the focus on scale: by designing geothermal into a whole development from the start, the project aims to make a technology that has often been custom and costly more practical.

It’s a reminder that the future of building energy will take many forms—and that smarter, more efficient systems can make a meaningful difference.

Lower heating bills matter—but so do the buildings where our communities learn.
Governor Hochul’s nearly $1 billion clean-energy push includes more than $100 million for clean-energy upgrades in New York public schools. That funding can help districts improve heating and cooling systems, reduce energy use, improve indoor air quality, and create healthier learning environments for students and staff.
For schools with aging facilities, practical upgrades add up. Improving existing window performance with WexWindows™ can help reduce energy loss and improve comfort without the expense and disruption of full window replacement.

What if sustainable schools weren’t the exception, but the standard?
Austin ISD is showing what that can look like: efficient HVAC, daylighting, better indoor air quality, shaded outdoor spaces, and building envelopes designed to handle extreme heat. Since 2017, the district reports avoiding more than $15 million in energy costs—resources that can stay focused on students.
The most encouraging part is that the district doesn’t treat sustainability as an add-on. It’s built into the district’s expectations for every major modernization project.
For school leaders, improving the performance of existing windows with WexWindows™ can be one practical way to reduce energy loss, support comfort, and extend the life of current facilities without full window replacement.

New York City’s Local Law 97 is putting building emissions—and the cost of inaction—front and center.
The law requires many larger buildings to meet emissions limits, with fines for those that exceed them. But the bigger story is that every upgrade can do more than support compliance: it can lower energy waste, improve comfort, and help future-proof a facility.
For building owners, the path forward starts with understanding where energy is being lost and identifying practical improvements. Upgrading existing windows with WexWindows™ can be one cost-effective step toward better building performance, without a full window replacement.

Big news for Maryland’s schools, hospitals, nonprofits, and public-sector facilities: more than $103 million in grants is now available for energy-efficiency, electrification, renewable energy, and resilience projects.

For building owners, this can make long-planned upgrades more achievable—from heat pumps and controls to insulation, air sealing, and window improvements.

Improving existing windows with WexWindows™ can be a practical part of a larger retrofit: helping reduce energy waste and support more comfortable buildings without the cost and disruption of full window replacement.

The program covers commercial building system retrofits and upgrades. Government and nonprofit buildings can apply for renewable energy and storage projects as well.

We always like seeing investments that make buildings more efficient—and this one caught our attention.
Maine is investing $4.7 million in energy-efficiency improvements, helping businesses and organizations make upgrades that can reduce energy use and operating costs.
At WexEnergy, we know that improving existing buildings doesn’t always mean starting from scratch. WexWindows takes a similar approach by helping commercial and institutional buildings improve the performance of their existing windows without full replacement.
There’s a lot of opportunity in the buildings we already have. It’s great to see more investment going toward practical energy-saving improvements.

College campuses have a lot on their plates. Aging buildings, tight budgets, rising utility costs—and the need to keep classrooms comfortable all year long.

Replacing windows across an entire campus can be expensive, disruptive, and difficult to fit into a busy academic schedule. That’s why we developed WexWindows.

Our interior window retrofit panels improve the thermal performance of existing windows without removing them, helping campuses reduce heating and cooling costs while creating more comfortable spaces for students, faculty, and staff.

It’s a practical way to get more out of the buildings you already have.

Not every building upgrade needs a major renovation.

A recent Facilities Dive article highlights how Class B building owners can take a more practical approach by making targeted, incremental improvements that boost efficiency and generate savings to help fund the next project.

That approach really resonates with us at WexEnergy. WexWindowsTM are designed to improve the performance of existing windows without the cost and disruption of full window replacement.

For older commercial and institutional buildings, upgrading what you already have can be a smart first step toward better efficiency, lower operating costs, and more comfortable spaces.

Sometimes, lower cost improvements can make a big, sustainable difference.

Owners can renovate their office buildings and attract occupiers at a more manageable cost if they align incremental building system and space upgrades with leasing cycles, experts say.

Hospitals are some of the most energy-intensive buildings we operate—and a recent study in Scientific Reports highlights just how significant that demand can be. The research found that large hospitals can use more than 600–700 kWh per square meter annually, with critical areas demanding continuous energy for HVAC, medical equipment, sterilization, and other essential systems.

At WexEnergy, improving building performance starts with looking at the entire building envelope. WexWindowsTM can help improve the thermal performance of existing windows without the cost and disruption of full window replacement. For hospitals, a WexWindow installation means no loss of patient bed revenues because our window retrofits install in minutes. When we say no construction we mean no dust, no noise and no VOCs.

For large facilities like hospitals, every efficiency improvement can matter.
