Energy Solutions

SMART-technology microgrids, built around your building

We work with industry leaders to help building owners interact with the grid on their own terms — SMART-technology building design and tailored microgrid systems, built on advanced energy storage, distributed generation, and intelligent control systems.

Overview

A fully integrated energy solution, executable for your specific requirements.

Nature to Power Technologies designs and delivers energy solutions built around each client’s actual load, budget, and risk tolerance — not a one-size-fits-all package. Every system is engineered to mitigate grid disruptions and promote reliable, sustainable energy use, with flexible service models tailored to how your facility operates.

Whether you need a single building brought onto SMART controls or a full campus-scale microgrid capable of islanding during an outage, the same underlying technology stack scales to fit.

Save money, reduce carbon

Lower energy bills alongside a smaller carbon footprint, through smarter generation and usage.

Grid disruption mitigation

Systems engineered to keep critical loads running through outages and demand spikes.

Flexible service models

Own it, lease it, or have us manage it — structured around your budget and goals.

The Technology Stack

Six building blocks behind every Energy Solutions project.

Each Energy Solutions engagement draws on the same core strategies we apply across the business — combined differently depending on your site.

GEB

Grid-Interactive Buildings

Efficiency, storage, and load flexibility integrated into the building itself.
SMT

SMART Optimization

AI and IoT tuned to real occupant patterns, not just design assumptions.

DER

Distributed Energy Resources

Solar PV, geothermal, and storage generating power where it’s used.

AEG

Advanced Generation

PEM fuel cells for clean, reliable backup and peak-demand support.

GIS

Grid-Interconnected Systems

Automated switchgear to island or reconnect your site as conditions change.
AMI

Advanced Metering

Real-time, building-level metering that drives every optimization decision.

Ongoing data analysis and reporting to keep performance and savings on track.

FAQ

Common questions about Energy Solutions.

From rooftop and carport solar to the dashboards that keep it all optimized — a look at the systems behind the numbers.

It covers the full system design — SMART building controls, distributed energy resources like solar and storage, and the intelligent controls that tie them together — sized and configured for your specific site and energy requirements, not a fixed package.

Most projects start with an existing facility. We assess your current equipment and infrastructure first, then design the solution to integrate with it — adding retrofits or upgrades only where they make sense.

Yes. Depending on how the system is configured, it can island from the utility grid using on-site generation and storage, then automatically reconnect once grid power is restored.
We offer flexible models including full ownership, lease-to-own, and managed service agreements, along with Performance Contracting (ESPC, UESC), Energy Service Agreements (EaaS), and Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) for clients who prefer little to no upfront capital cost.
Timelines vary with system size and scope. A single-building retrofit can move in weeks; a campus-scale microgrid with generation and storage typically runs several months from design through commissioning. Your timeline is scoped during the initial audit.
Yes. Every Energy Solution includes access to our data analysis and reporting service, so performance is monitored on an ongoing basis and adjusted as your usage patterns change.
