Ekotrope is Among the Fastest Growing Companies in the Energy Industry!
Ekotrope has earned a spot on Inc. Magazine’s list of the fastest growing private companies in the country! We are both humbled and honored by this achievement, especially as this past year was unlike any other that we have faced. Through it all, Ekotrope has seen tremendous growth all thanks to our loyal customers.
Ekotrope placed 964th on the overall Inc. 5000 list which in itself is exciting, but we are even more excited to share how we performed in each sub-category. Ekotrope placed 30th in Massachusetts, 27th in Boston, and 18th in the energy industry. Ekotrope was founded upon the mission of making energy efficiency easy and this distinction only further fuels our ambition to innovate the construction industry and develop products that drive the building of more energy efficient homes.
We’ve hit many milestones this year, watched our partners grow to reach new heights, and aided in advancing our industry forward. Beyond that, since Ekotrope’s inception, we’ve seen the incredible progress that the residential new construction industry has made, with more stringent standards, better building practices, and more energy efficient homes than ever before.
Even amid the commotion that ensued in 2020, our industry pushed ahead, allowing us to develop Ekotrope RATER 4.0.0, launch new tools like Automated Design Assistance and Scenario Modeling, develop the Single family Green MBS in collaboration with Fannie Mae and PEG, give 4 presentations at the first ever virtual RESNET conference, and eclipse over 500,000 confirmed ratings in Ekotrope RATER.
Looking ahead, Ekotrope aims for a sustainable future where energy and environmental factors impact every decision made in our built environment. Toward this goal, Ekotrope aims to help lead the residential new construction industry with data-driven insights, more efficient workflows, and a more effective approach to sustainable construction.
On the topic of this achievement and what’s to come, Ekotrope's CEO, Ziv Rozenblum says:
"We are in a great position to execute on our vision. In just 4 short years, Ekotrope became a leading provider of energy and environmental certifications and insights to residential stakeholders like builders, HERS providers and raters, utilities, finance organizations and building product manufacturers. Our goal was always to use the power of our analysis to drive toward a sustainable future. Now, with 1 in 4 new US homes using our technology to make smarter choices and get homes certified, this goal is closer than ever."
With this great honor comes great responsibility. We at Ekotrope are dedicated to the improvement of our tools, our service, and our relationships with our customers. Our intention is to be as engaged with our clients as we are with our internal team in order to develop tools that provide truly valuable solutions and deliver unique insights that will help transform the way we think about sustainable construction, from the energy model all the way to the financing of energy efficient homes.
