A new report from Guidehouse Insights assesses the competitive landscape for energy as a service (EaaS) solutions.

In the ever-evolving landscape of energy solutions, EaaS has experienced substantial growth in demand over the past five years. To thrive in today’s competitive market, EaaS vendors have been compelled to diversify their product portfolios. This diversification involves not just expanding their offerings but also forging strategic alliances and partnerships that can allow them to stay abreast of the latest processes to deliver seamless installations and tailor-made solutions for their clients. According to Guidehouse Insights, Ameresco, Schneider Electric, and Enel X are the leading EaaS solutions.

“The market for EaaS has been increasingly growing in recent years, generating numerous project opportunities for established EaaS vendors as well as new market entrants,” says David Gonzalez, research analyst with Guidehouse Insights. “In addition, EaaS vendors have witnessed growth propelled by technological innovations and rising demand for more flexible, sustainable energy solutions.

The leaderboard includes a variety of stakeholders, including traditional energy service companies, utilities, and EaaS platform providers. Most of the players in the leaderboard have leveraged partnerships with different providers across the EaaS value chain to complement their own capabilities and enable them to provide end-to-end EaaS services.

Competition is expected to continue to increase as more companies enter the market with solutions and services tailored to meet evolving energy demand, according to the report.
