Our story began in a humble St. Louis garage, where the Energy Savings Store was founded as a two-person operation to bring solar power to local homes and businesses.
The Energy Savings Store combined with a company in Kansas City to form Brightergy.
Brightergy became one of the most experienced commercial solar companies in the US, completing over 1,200 projects. This milestone inspired a vision for a company that offered more than just solar power solutions.
Brightergy expanded its services to include comprehensive energy management solutions, such as energy audits, efficiency upgrades, and smart technology integration.
By 2018, Brightergy’s efforts helped clients save millions in energy costs and significantly reduce carbon emissions, positively impacting local communities and the environment.
Brightergy embraced new technologies like battery storage and EV charging solutions, furthering our mission of energy independence. That same year, Brightergy was acquired by a leading electrical industry company, which allowed us to refocus our offerings to better serve commercial entities, non-profits, and municipalities.
Brightergy continues to lead in sustainable energy solutions, committed to innovation, customer satisfaction, and environmental stewardship, helping more businesses and communities achieve energy independence and sustainable growth.
