Virtual Strategic Energy Management®
(vSEM®)

The future of customer engagement is virtual.
Virtual engagement is what we do.

Power TakeOff has spent 20 years listening to utilities and their customers. Our Virtual Strategic Energy Management® (SEM®) program fundamentally intertwines solutions that address both utility and participant barriers. Since 2020, we have heard them loud and clear: virtual programs work. Power TakeOff’s vSEM program opens a new pathway for small- and medium-sized businesses and public institutions to participate in utility energy-efficiency programs. 

We listened to customers for a decade: here's what we found.

Customers prefer virtual programs.

In Focus on Energy’s 2020 Evaluation Report, only 9% of Business & Industry customers attended an in-person training in the past two years.

Customers love connection to peers.

According to Puget Sound Energy’s 2016 RCM Evaluation, participants liked the SEM’s peer to peer networking. 

Customers want recognition for their efforts.

In the newest CA SEM Evaluation, customers said they wanted to be rewarded for behavior change, too.
