We are a Utah company involved in green energy, especially in the area of LED lighting. As an extension of Lewis Young Robertson & Burningham (An Independent Municipal Financial Advisory and Consulting Firm), we are here to help commercial businesses and municipalities make a smart, well-educated financial transaction. We do this through the sale of LED lighting, and other energy efficiency strategies. We do not, however, just sell a product. We want to be with our client’s throughout the entire process. We want to be a sound, unbiased resource to our clients as we help them make the best financial decision which in the near future will save them money. There are many energy incentives offered through the purchase of LED products throughout the country. In Utah, we are a participating vendor in Rocky Mountain Power’s wattsmart® Business program. As such, we are qualified and experienced to help maximize your incentive amount. In fact, we will take care of the entire process for you. The LED lighting industry is constantly evolving, we can provide many solutions to all our clients through comprehensive energy audits and consulting efforts. If the best solution for our clients is to have us consult on their project and then help bid out the cost of the lights, we’ll do it. We are not restricted to selling lights. We want to work side by side with our clients and together make smart business decisions while making all of our lives cleaner and more efficient. WE PROVIDE SOLUTIONS. Contact us for more details.
