Big claims are easy. Action is hard. Here's what we do differently.

We don't replace humans with technology. We combine data, specialized technology, and in-person relationships with follow-through to ensure you get the results you want.

Accurately identify the savings potential for any building in your portfolio in minutes.

AI in the background that makes HVAC optimization fast, profitable and repeatable.

Deploy our product at any asset class, any tenant lease structure.

Building first, tenant first.

Implement projects site teams want and improve conditions for your tenants.

High ROI projects get fast new cash flowing within 90 days from implementation.

ROI from Efficiency Dividends

Sub 1 year payback ensures high ROI while while lowering tenant energy expenses

Low cost ancillary income for CRE
Here's how it works

For a typical 70k sq. ft. building, a one-time investment of $20k in building improvements can generate $20k to $40k in annual ancillary income.

Carbon Lighthouse has a proven track record and the expertise needed to help you prioritize and maximize new income streams for your properties. Get the most out of your properties by unlocking their full income potential.

Our software shows you where the money is.

Our software identifies in minutes every major energy opportunity for any building with any lease type across your portfolio.

Leverage billions of data points analyzed from buildings we've worked in over the past 10 years to achieve a level of accuracy that traditionally has taken weeks or months to accomplish.

We help you prioritize the right projects to execute, beginning with triple-digit returns and sub 1-year payback. And it's all, free to use.

Our on-site presence enables quick and easy action in your buildings.

Carbon Lighthouse engineers travel to your buildings and work in tandem with your site teams and facilities engineers to ensure alignment and buy-in before work begins.

Our engineers connect your equipment to our SMARTincome software. Often we'll uncover energy savings opportunities on Day 1 and work with your teams to achieve immediate resolution.

By week 3, we'll surface every major opportunity available, complete with financial return and RFP language when necessary, making it easy to take action.

Prove you're making a good investment.

Our software continuously analyzes the data coming out of your building, flagging whenever equipment runs off course, while ignoring the nuisance problems.

We make sure you get the financial return you expect, whether your funds' hold periods are 1 year or 100 years.

Eliminate NNN split-incentives and generate cash savings with Carbon Lighthouse Efficiency Dividends.

Hospitality and Full Service Hotels

With increased travel forecasted for 2023 and 2024, even modern hotel buildings can benefit from HVAC optimization and related energy efficiency measures. We've worked extensively with contractors and third parties to get projects implemented and can guide them with custom RFP language as needed.

Office, Life Sciences, Data Centers & Industrial

Every building presents unique challenges based on varied tenant occupancy and specific HVAC requirements. Our technology and software is well suited to navigate the complexities of modern and outdated BMS systems alike. Custom fault detection software ensure that your buildings retain the energy savings gained and ensure your equipment continues to run as optimally and efficiently as possible.

Their words, not ours.

This is what our customers have to say about the power of technology.

L&B Realty Advisors is a well-established real estate investment and management company that provides clients with value-add and opportunistic real estate investment opportunities.

With a diverse portfolio of medical and life sciences, office, retail, industrial, and multifamily properties across the United States, L&B Realty Advisors seeks innovative solutions to maximize returns and optimize their assets.

L&B Realty advisors used our software to identify the best building improvement opportunities in their buildings and our professional services to accelerate implementation of building improvements.

After implementing the recommended projects, L&B Realty Advisors achieved a 3x return on equity. Actual savings measured exceeded initial savings estimates from our software.

We achieved a 3x return on equity. Where else can we get that in the current market?

Carbon Lighthouse predicted solid return on cost and environmental goals, so I did extensive due diligence on the technology and company, and I'm excited to say they performed well and returns exceeded what was promised. After capitalizing the perpetual savings, we achieved a 3x return on equity. Where else can we get that in the current market? We've used them everywhere we can.
