Channel Partner Program

Our Channel Partners typically include Energy Service Companies (ESCO's) and Distributors of maintenance, repair and operational supplies (MRO's). In most cases, our channel partner assumes control of the overall energy project and client relationship while outsourcing the lighting upgrade portion to SES.

Energy Service Companies (ESCO's)

We understand that you have a team responsible for the lighting portion of your energy efficiency projects. We can aid that team by providing our expertise to help you compete in the marketplace and to provide the optimal solution to your accounts. Lately there has been a trend in outsourcing the design and implementation of lighting retrofits to specialist companies like SES in order to maximize energy savings, lower implementation and project management costs and win the entire contract.

MRO Providers

Distributors of maintenance, repair and operational equipment generally serve two markets, direct to the end-user facility maintenance professionals and construction, maintenance and repair contractors. Occasionally, they have lighting needs beyond the typical maintenance program. In these cases the distributor works with their customers to understand their needs so they can propose the best solution for their clients. Typically, distributors handle thousands of MRO products in their inventory so it is not surprising that when it comes to expertise about lighting they look outside for help. Sun Energy Solutions will work closely with you and your customers to ensure the optimal lighting solution design is implemented by our engineers and technicians, thereby ensuring that you keep the lighting portion of the MRO contract.

With the significant improvements in lighting technology that came in the late 90's we saw a dramatic increase in the amount of energy savings that could be generated by a lighting retrofit. These new lighting technologies have become so effective at improving the overall payback period for all systems in a facility that lighting is now typically the first system retrofit by ESCO's today or one of the earliest equipment changes suggested by MRO providers. Unfortunately the required dedication of a team to maintain expertise in the new lighting technologies is a challenge. Without a partner who has a high level of lighting expertise, utilizing cutting edge technological advancements, this could lead to a less than optimal solution. This is unfortunate for the customer, for you and for the environment. It may also make or break your overall project bid or account relationship.

Outsourcing the design and implementation of the lighting portion of your project to Sun Energy Solutions will provide you with the expertise you need to optimize lighting solutions, significantly decrease energy consumption and provide a reasonable Return on Investment and pay-back period for your client
