Why choose Vicinity for your clean energy solution?​

Select district energy and make the right choice for your building’s long-term operations and sustainability goals.

Eliminate onsite equipment for long-term savings

When evaluating energy options for your building, it’s risky to only consider upfront costs. A thorough lifecycle cost analysis helps you compare long-term expenses like financing, equipment purchase price, ongoing maintenance, variable and fixed energy costs, and opportunity costs between onsite equipment and district energy systems. District energy not only removes the need for boiler and chiller maintenance and specialized full-time staff, but also aligns with many organizations’ sustainability goals. 

Products revolutionizing community and business energy solutions

Vicinity produces and distributes steam, hot water, and chilled water directly through a vast underground piping network to over 250 million square feet of commercial buildings. From major hospitals to corporate offices, we ensure reliable, affordable, and clean energy is delivered to our customers 24/7.
