Two of our core competencies at QC are program evaluation and program design. Since our inception, we have provided energy utilities, government agencies, and program administrators across the U.S. with valued impact, process, and market evaluations to improve their programs effectiveness. Our approach to accurate evaluation and design reflects our experience that enhancing program performance and success requires identifying and executing best practices as well as understanding of the environments in which customers make energy related decisions.

Quantum Consulting’s impact, market, and process evaluations provide decision-makers with accurate estimates of energy and demand savings, market effects, and process improvements associated with their energy-efficiency and demand-response programs. Our methods and results have consistently passed muster under exacting regulatory and stakeholder reviews.

We have developed a distinguished approach to program design. Our best practices program designs cover all program areas and customer sectors. From low-income residential to large industrial customer programs, we provide expert approaches for making your program succeed: program management, reporting, and tracking, quality control and verification, participation processes and requirements, incentive strategies, and evaluation.
