By navigating the complexities of energy use, we’re helping building owners create value while cutting costs and carbon.
We’re not consultants. We don’t sell equipment, software or dashboards. We’re an actively managed energy service, engineering a sophisticated mix of proprietary software and strategies to unlock the hidden returns in your existing equipment and deliver a dependable source of ongoing revenue.
Create Value
Everyone says they’ll save you money, but we’ll quantify your returns and deliver greater building value with no upfront costs.
Earn Revenue
Implementing solutions with the biggest financial gains, we continuously monitor and act to ensure ongoing, guaranteed revenue.
Erase Emissions
We’ve created a clear path to net-zero emissions through quantifiable reductions in carbon emissions and allowances.
A Duo of Services to Optimize Any Building.
Our proprietary technology enables our engineers to continuously deliver hidden returns, cut costs and create a new source of revenue for building owners through two service types:
Central Systems
For buildings with central HVAC systems, we use advanced optimization strategies to cut energy use by 20% – 30% and deliver 40% – 60% ROI
Energy Efficiency + Solar
For buildings with available roof space, we combine energy efficiency strategies with solar installations to potentially eliminate utility bills and deliver 30% – 50% ROI

From Sugar Cane to REIT: How Hawaii’s A&B Inc. is Finding Value by Saving Energy
At nearly 150 years old, Alexander & Baldwin Inc. (A&B Inc.) knows something about longevity. The largest owner of grocery/drug-anchored retail centers in Hawaii was founded as one of the first ever corporations in the state. What started as a small sugar cane growing enterprise quickly expanded into an agricultural, shipping and real estate powerhouse.
How Carbon Lighthouse Got Its CLUES
In their first year in the energy efficiency business, Carbon Lighthouse founders Brenden Millstein and Raphael Rosen encountered a client who almost stole their thunder. When Millstein and Rosen first visited the building, an office building owned by Dostart Development, they saw that the owner had already changed out incandescent lightbulbs for LEDs and upgraded their HVAC system.
How We Hire
Hiring great teammates is the single most important thing Carbon Lighthouse does. Period. When done intelligently, hiring is a science, not an art.
How to Heat an Office – The Thermodynamic Secrets
How do you heat a private office or any room for that matter? The challenge lies in the difference between two concepts: energy and temperature.
Sensible and Sensibilities: Different types of heat and why they matter
There are two fundamental concepts related to how much energy cooling systems must use: sensible heat and latent heat. So which type of heat, sensible or latent, requires more energy to remove?
The Carbon Lighthouse Mission
Because stopping climate change will only happen if we can make it easy and profitable, together we are engineering new ways to erase the 20% of global emissions from non-residential buildings.
