NERVA Energy Earns a Spot on Canada’s Fastest Growing Companies List for the Third Consecutive Year
NERVA Energy is proud to announce its recognition on the 2025 Report on Business ranking of Canada’s Top Growing Companies, marking the third consecutive year the company has achieved this honour.
​
This year’s acknowledgment is particularly meaningful as NERVA continues to demonstrate sustained growth and success, an impressive feat for a privately-owned Canadian company that entered the marketplace only eight years ago.
“Our recognition for a third year in a row is a tremendous accomplishment, and we owe it entirely to the dedication of our people and the trust of our clients,” says Rob Hallewick, CEO of NERVA Energy Group Inc. “This is their achievement as much as it is ours, and we are deeply grateful for the collective effort that continues to make NERVA a true Canadian success story.”
Celebrating Sustained Growth and Impact
​
Over the past eight years, NERVA has grown from an ambitious startup into a nationally recognized leader in energy performance solutions. Achieving a place on this list year after year reflects not only the strength of NERVA’s business model but also its consistent ability to deliver measurable results for clients while contributing to Canada’s broader sustainability goals.
​
Among its notable milestones, NERVA has:
Completed North America’s largest multi-residential smart building conversion, optimizing energy performance across more than 85 buildings and 10,000 suites for Drewlo Holdings.
​
Earned recognition from the Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) with the Energy Project of the Year: Canada award.
​​
Secured the Overall Sustainability Award from Sustainability Leadership, underscoring its comprehensive approach to environmental stewardship.
​​
Received the Large Business Award from the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce, celebrating its positive local economic and social impact.
​​​
Honoured with a CLEAN50 Top Project Award, recognizing NERVA’s leadership in advancing Canada’s clean economy through practical, scalable solutions.
Each of these achievements underscores NERVA’s commitment to creating long-term value for clients, advancing innovation in building performance, and making tangible contributions to environmental and economic sustainability across Canada.
​
A Shared Accomplishment
​
Canada’s Top Growing Companies ranks businesses nationwide based on their three-year revenue growth, and NERVA’s repeat placement underscores both resilience and sustained momentum in a competitive marketplace.
“This milestone is a reflection of people, not just performance,” Hallewick adds. “It is the hard work of our staff, the loyalty of our clients, and the support of our industry partners that make this possible. We are privileged to work alongside such incredible people and remain committed to delivering results that honour the trust they’ve placed in us.”
“Our annual ranking of Canada’s Top Growing Companies reflects the sector-spanning ingenuity of this country’s entrepreneurs and corporate leaders,” says Dawn Calleja, Editor of Report on Business magazine. “And we think it’s important to tell their stories, to help inspire the next generation of up-and-comers across the country.”
Looking Ahead
​
As NERVA celebrates this milestone, the company remains firmly focused on the future. With energy efficiency, innovation, and guaranteed performance at its core, NERVA is committed to expanding its impact across Canada’s built environment.
A Heartfelt Thank You
