Veregy’s solutions, including upgrades to HVAC, lighting, solar, plumbing and building automation, ensure learning spaces are comfortable, healthy, and conducive to academic achievement.

Partnering for Success in California Education

In California, Veregy’s record of achievement is remarkable. The company has partnered with over 120 TK–12 districts, conducted energy audits for more than 600 schools, and helped secure over $250 million in funding to advance energy efficiency, renewable energy, and resilient operations.

Veregy’s commitment to supporting all schools is demonstrated through its strategic partnership with the Small School Districts’ Association (SSDA). Veregy is a proud Signature Partner of SSDA, offering valuable services like complimentary energy assessments to districts of all sizes to help them access funding and prioritize facility needs.

Veregy is also a committed member of the Coalition for Adequate School Housing (CASH), reinforcing its dedication to advocating for the facility needs of California’s TK–12 schools.

Many of these projects have achieved LEED certification, a testament to Veregy’s focus on sustainable and high-performance building design. Furthermore, Veregy’s dedicated California TK–12 team has collaborated with more than 50 school districts to capture over $100 million in state-funded grants supporting energy efficiency, improved indoor air quality, and learning opportunities that engage students in energy and climate careers.

In recognition of this outstanding work, Veregy received a Green Technology Leadership Award in 2023, honoring their commitment to helping public-sector institutions meet California’s sustainability objectives.

Green Technology is proud to spotlight Veregy as a Sustainability Champion whose work continues to empower communities, improve learning environments, and build a more resilient California.
