Alternative Energy Services
Is your organization facing a publicly
stated carbon reduction goal that seems
daunting?
Have you considered alternative energy
strategies, but put them on hold due to
cost or risk concerns?
Are you looking for a trusted advisor to
provide guidance on a solution that meets
your portfolio’s specific needs?
We can help.
There’s no better time
than now to explore,
or revisit, alternative
energy solutions.
With federal incentives decreasing
at the end of 2016, you’ll miss out
if you wait to reach your carbon
reduction goals. JLL’s Alternative
Energy Services (AES) team
can help guide you to the best
alternative energy solution for your
specific carbon reduction goals
and portfolio. With our unique mix
of global energy and real estate
expertise, we partner with you
to meet your carbon reduction
goals—from the analysis of potential
solutions to the implementation and
management of alternative energy
strategies. Plus, we eliminate the
upfront cost and risk that can
delay or cancel other renewable
energy projects.
What services do we provide?
• Comprehensive upfront analysis
• Competitive procurement processes
• Implementation oversight for alternative
energy strategies
• Management of alternative energy strategies
Ready to move forward with your
AES project? We’re the right
partner for you.
1. We eliminate your upfront cost.
Many consultants charge six-figure fees at every
phase of the process, with no guarantee their
client’s goals can be met. Our payday comes when
a deal is struck that meets or exceeds your carbon
reduction and alternative energy goals. At that time,
we get a mutually agreed upon fee from the winning
developer—so your direct cost is zero!
2. We make it personal.
Certain clients are specifically interested in unique
building installations while others require assistance
with a portfolio-wide Power Purchase Agreement.
Regardless of the scale, most need a guide through
the process, supporting them from start to finish.
We’re not selling a particular product or service—our
sole focus is providing you with the best solution.
Every client engagement starts by establishing
success factors that meet your needs. Throughout
the process, we make sure to meet or exceed your
unique success factors—or we don’t get paid!
What are your alternative
energy options?
3. We simplify the complex.
Alternative energy solutions can be complex,
but we work with you to ensure you understand
each step along the way and can make informed
decisions on how best to move forward. We’re your
partner in every phase of the project and
will take the time to answer every question—
big or small.
4. We leverage our expertise in facility
management and energy reduction.
With a facility management portfolio of 2.6 billion
square feet in 70 countries, we save clients
more than $100 million annually in energy costs,
eliminating millions of metric tons of carbon
emissions each year. We lead the industry in green
building certification, energy retrofits, and smart
building solutions. And our 53,000 professionals
include thousands of project managers, engineers,
energy managers and transaction specialists
everywhere your buildings are. Our expertise
allows us to better evaluate and implement
alternative energy solutions based on your
unique portfolio needs.

The time to explore AES is now.
At the end of 2016, federal
government incentives for
alternative energy will significantly
decrease. It’s time to move beyond
considering your AES project.
Partner with us today on your AES
project to take full advantage of
additional federal incentive savings.
