Reinforcing its market position, Willdan has clinched a series of contracts to help facilitate energy efficiency and decarbonization in various enterprises.
Leading the string of announcements, the Puget Sound Energy (PSE) has extended a contract to Willdan of $18 million, making this the sixth consecutive time the latter has been chosen to deliver PSE’s Small Business Direct Install program.

Under the scheme, Willdan provides direct installations of energy efficiency measures, proving its commitment to sustainable and responsible energy use. The program has been vital for small businesses in past years, many of which have continuously grappled with the challenges of adopting energy-efficient practices.
In another crucial partnership, a national healthcare provider has selected Willdan to boost their decarbonization plans. This initiative aims to curb natural gas use in domestic hot water, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, sterilization configurations, and central utility units across more than 1,000 building facilities.

This collaboration enables the healthcare provider to tap into federal, state, and local support to ensure a smooth transition to sustainable energy use. With Willdan’s robust tactical plan, the health care provider aims to significantly mitigate the environmental impacts of its operations in the coming years.
