About us

In 1998, I started kW Engineering as a two-person firm with a singular vision: to become the leading technical experts at saving money in buildings by saving energy and water. Long before “sustainability” and “renewables” became popular buzzwords, kW Engineering was cutting its teeth in campus central plants and the aisles of data centers. We treat every project as an opportunity to showcase our expertise, further refine our craft, and strengthen our reputation by delivering results at the meter and on the bill. I am proud that my team’s results speak for themselves. With hundreds of satisfied long-term clients, we have steadily grown into a recognized leader in the energy industry with a dedicated technical staff of over 50 engineers. While new firms have entered the market in the past few years and others have left or been acquired by large corporations, kW Engineering has remained a private and independent company, beholden only to our customers’ best interests. We deliberately seek out only those opportunities where we can deliver results and build strong professional relationships that will last beyond our next 15 years.

    Last week, kW Engineering CEO Sanjiv Devnani had the opportunity to present at the Quality Assurance Series: Building Decarbonization Projects hosted by Climate United. The conversation focused on considerations for protecting building owners’ interests in small and mid-sized clean-energy projects in the drive to decarbonize America’s buildings. Our CEO, Sunny Devnani, spoke passionately about the role a commissioning agent holds in ensuring that owners' needs are met. "The commissioning agent is more of a role of a fireman than a policeman. It is your partner. It is not just a QA/QC…a good commissioning agent is going to be your partner to resolve those problems. That’s how we look at commissioning at kW Engineering." Thank you to everyone who joined us for this insightful discussion.
