Company info

Optimum Energy, a Bernhard Capital Partners portfolio company, has spent 20 years helping hospitals, universities, government facilities, and advanced manufacturing operations reduce energy consumption in heating and cooling systems by up to 50% and turn that infrastructure into a strategic financial and operational asset.
With 300+ plants and institutions served globally, nobody understands energy
infrastructure, efficiency, and financial opportunity quite like Optimum Energy.
Our Energy-as-a-Service model converts aging central utility plants into upfront unrestricted cash, cuts utility operating expenses 25 to 35%, and keeps the transaction entirely off the balance sheet.
The structure has been confirmed by Big Four auditors and cited by rating agencies as a driver of improved credit outlooks.
We work with clients from master planning and design through implementation, commissioning, and into long-term operations and maintenance.
How we show up depends on what the client needs.
That could mean fully managed plants with Optimum carrying total accountability for performance and uptime.
It could mean supplementing an existing facilities team with engineering support, analytics, training, and escalation resources.
Or it could mean a tailored combination of both.
In every engagement, we stay for the life of the agreement.
Proprietary technology, including OptiCx and OptimumLOOP, powers everything we do.
It is not what we sell.
It is what enables us to deliver the most continuous, precise system-level optimization across chilled water, hot water, and steam plants available in the market today.
