Why GEMM

Fundamental Challenges
Most mid-market buildings consume nearly twice the energy they need, with no resiliency for the next grid failure. Often lack of time, guidance, and capital pose challenges limiting energy projects to simple lighting retrofits, if at all.
Traditional capital investment based solely on simple payback and return on investment add further hurdles.
Transitioning green investment into sound decision making and action requires a paradigm shift from traditional methodologies typically practiced.
"Meeting the strict Regulatory and Corporate initiatives needed to achieve net zero emissions requires more than modifying existing energy consumption, rather a re-envisioned reality where the building and the grid “breath” in unison. This “smart building” will no longer simply be a consumer of power, but a healthier, more resilient, compliant, and profitable asset. ~ Founder & CEO K. Scott Sine PE, MBA

Integrated Design & Financial Masterplanning
Decarbonization is GEMM. Infrastructure resiliency is GEMM. Maximizing capital is ABSOLUTELY GEMM!
GEMM recognized how integrating a financial analysis into the technical design from project inception allowed building owners to make better educated and strategic decision making.
Whether the goal is to achieve a Net-Zero building, secure energy and operational resiliency, create positive project cash flow, reduce capital stack debt, or make the best use of upfront tax credits, GEMM has the expertise to advance these opportunities.
GEMM's ability to work independently or with a client's valued trade allies ensure the best green-build solution is obtained. With over 25+ years of engineering leadership, our team has yet to encounter an aged mid-market building lacking the potential for environmental and financial improvement from our integrated Diamond Masterplan ProcessTM.
