Recognition highlights the growing importance of practical energy conservation projects in optimizing Canada’s existing buildings.
NERVA Energy is proud to announce that it has been recognized by Enbridge Gas as its Top Business Partner for 2025, delivering the highest number of energy conservation projects and the largest natural gas reductions through Enbridge incentive programs.
The recognition was presented during Enbridge Gas’ Annual Golf Tournament on May 26th and reflects the growing importance of energy conservation initiatives across Canada’s existing building sector.
As operating costs continue to rise and building owners face increasing pressure to improve efficiency and reduce emissions, energy conservation projects have become one of the most effective tools available to strengthen building performance while improving asset value.
Across multi-residential, commercial, retail, institutional, and industrial portfolios, existing buildings represent one of the largest opportunities for meaningful energy reduction. Much of Canada’s building stock was designed decades ago, when energy costs, building controls, and operational expectations were significantly different than they are today.
Rather than focusing solely on capital-intensive equipment replacement, NERVA has built its approach around practical, data-driven optimization strategies that improve mechanical efficiency, reduce operating costs, and support long-term decarbonization goals.
“Our focus has always been on delivering financially accretive energy conservation projects that create measurable value for building owners,” said Rob Hallewick, CEO of NERVA Energy. “Energy efficiency should not be viewed simply as a sustainability initiative. It is an operational and financial strategy that improves net operating income, increases asset value, and strengthens long-term portfolio performance.”
Since 2018, NERVA has actively participated in Enbridge Gas’ prescriptive and custom incentive programs, helping clients unlock funding opportunities that accelerate investment into energy conservation projects.
These programs have played a critical role in helping property owners and institutional investors achieve return-on-investment thresholds and secure capital approval for projects that may not otherwise move forward.
As Canada’s building stock continues to age, the need for investment in mechanical infrastructure and operational efficiency becomes increasingly urgent. Incentive funding helps mobilize capital toward projects that improve building performance, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and modernize existing systems without requiring disruptive or premature replacement.
NERVA’s recognition as Enbridge Gas’ top business partner underscores both the scale and impact of these initiatives.
“It is an honour to be recognized by Enbridge Gas for delivering the highest number of projects and largest natural gas reductions of any business partner,” said Hallewick. “This recognition validates our team’s commitment to delivering practical, results-driven energy conservation strategies that create measurable financial and operational value for our clients.”
The achievement reflects the collaborative effort between utilities, engineering teams, property owners, and operational stakeholders working toward a common goal of improving building performance and reducing energy intensity across Canada’s existing building stock.
Most importantly, it reflects the trust and partnership of NERVA’s clients.
“We are incredibly grateful to our clients, partners, and employees for their continued support and commitment,” added Hallewick. “This recognition would not be possible without the collaboration and shared vision of everyone involved in delivering these projects.”
As energy costs, regulatory expectations, and performance standards continue to evolve, the role of practical energy conservation projects will only become more important.
For NERVA, this recognition reinforces a core belief:
The most sustainable and financially resilient buildings are not always the newest buildings.
They are the buildings that operate most intelligently.
Looking ahead, NERVA remains committed to continuing to raise the bar for what energy conservation projects can achieve across Canada’s built environment. As the demand for operational efficiency, decarbonization, and financial resilience continues to accelerate, we see this recognition not as a milestone, but as motivation. Our team remains focused on delivering measurable results for clients, advancing innovation in building optimization, and continuing to set new benchmarks for project delivery, energy savings, and building performance across the country.
