Once accepted, these contractors are approved to provide ComEd Energy Efficiency Program incentives to customers and grow their businesses through the successful completion of energy efficiency projects. After graduation, suppliers are eligible to join the ComEd EESP network, which consists of contractors, distributors, engineering and design firms trained on the processes and procedures of the ComEd Energy Efficiency Program. “By providing support to diverse suppliers – many of whom are small or family-run businesses – we can help them compete with larger organizations in the growing market that offers families and businesses the opportunity to save money and energy.”ĬomEd created the EESP Incubator Program in 2019 to focus on recruiting diverse suppliers and support the development of all interested contractors. “ComEd recognizes that when we invest in diverse-owned suppliers, it strengthens families, uplifts communities and creates local jobs now and into the future,” said Erica Borggren, vice president of customer solutions at ComEd. Participating suppliers will also have the opportunity to match with an experienced mentor for additional peer-to-peer support.
The EESP Incubator Program offers participating suppliers education and training on ComEd's energy efficiency portfolio offerings provides one-on-one assistance with certification applications, business growth plans and building relationships with project financing lenders and identifies, addresses, and resolves barriers to building a successful business in the energy efficiency field.
