Reflecting on 2024
A Year of Progress and Momentum
A Note From Our CEO
As we close 2024, I’m proud of the strides we’ve made together during a pivotal time for the energy transition. This year, we celebrated key milestones – not just for 360 Energy, but for the businesses and communities we serve.
Among our accomplishments:
- Increasing client savings to over $90 million, a testament to the impact of our solutions on both profitability and sustainability.
- Expanding our services globally, we’re leveraging AI to strengthen our product capabilities and provide service to clients in South America, while preparing to enter Europe in 2025.
- Launching Envirally, a groundbreaking platform that helps businesses not only control energy costs but also uncover savings while tracking Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.
We’ve taken energy discussions to the executive level by co-hosting CEO roundtable events at the Hamilton Chamber and Honda Canada’s corporate office. These gatherings brought together industry business leaders and key Eco Energy system executives to explore the opportunities and challenges of the energy transition, emphasizing the importance of collaboration to drive meaningful progress.
Through our weekly podcast, The 360 on Energy & Carbon – now reaching listeners in over 27 countries – we’ve brought diverse perspectives from global experts to inform and inspire meaningful change in energy and carbon management.
The energy transition is not a costly burden – it’s an incredible opportunity for businesses to innovate, grow, and build a more sustainable future. By rethinking how we use and manage energy, companies can improve their bottom line while contributing to a cleaner, more resilient world.
This work is not without its challenges, but it is undeniably important. I’m inspired daily by the commitment of my team and the forward-thinking leadership of the businesses we partner with.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we’ve shown that meaningful progress is possible. I look forward to building on this momentum in 2025.
Warm regards,
