Funding Strategy
We identify and stack the right capital sources — bond proceeds, state and federal programs, utility incentives, tax credits, performance contracts, and grants — to maximize what each project delivers per dollar.
Advisors to Public School Districts
Smarter decisions.
Better contracts.
Stronger schools.
Access Energy Group partners with public schools to navigate funding, evaluate vendors, and structure infrastructure, energy, and modernization projects on terms that protect students, staff, and taxpayers — for decades to come.
01
Our Purpose
Public schools deserve advisors who answer to them — not to the vendors selling them equipment.
Every year, school districts sign multi-million-dollar contracts for energy efficiency upgrades, solar installations, HVAC modernization, and facility renewal. Too often, those agreements are drafted by the very companies that profit from them.
Access Energy Group changes that equation. We sit on the district's side of the table, providing independent funding analysis, technical due diligence, and contract review so school boards can move forward with clarity and confidence.
02
What We Do
Technical Analysis
Independent review of energy audits, engineering studies, savings projections, and equipment specifications. We translate vendor proposals into plain language so boards understand what they are actually buying.
Contract Review
Performance guarantees, measurement and verification clauses, escalators, termination rights, indemnification — we scrutinize the terms that determine whether a project pays off or drains the general fund for twenty years.
Vendor Selection
Structured RFP development, competitive procurement, and bid evaluation. We help districts run processes that attract serious bidders and surface the right partner for the work.
Energy & Renewables
Solar PPAs, geothermal, lighting retrofits, building automation, battery storage. We bring deep familiarity with the technologies, the economics, and the contract structures specific to each.
Modernization & Infrastructure
Roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, building envelope, and capital renewal planning. Sound infrastructure decisions extend the life of every facility a district owns.
03
How We Work
A disciplined process, built around the district's interests.
-
i.
Listen & Assess
We start with the district's facilities, finances, and long-range plan — not with a product to sell.
-
ii.
Model & Verify
Funding scenarios, savings projections, and cost assumptions are tested independently before anything goes to the board.
-
iii.
Procure & Negotiate
We design procurement processes that draw competitive proposals and negotiate the terms that matter most.
-
iv.
Oversee & Protect
Through construction and into operations, we monitor performance against contract — so promises become results.
Considering a major project?
Whether you are scoping a bond program, evaluating an energy services proposal, or rethinking a long-term capital plan, an independent conversation costs nothing and often changes the trajectory of a decision.
