Impact Evaluation
Michaels has gained national recognition in impact evaluation for residential, commercial, and industrial energy efficiency programs. Consultants and utilities choose Michaels due to our deep understanding of a vast array of program stakeholder interests, technical and program expertise, responsiveness, and minimal management and hand-holding needs. In multi-year evaluation projects, we clearly experience improved technical and process improvements in programs largely due to results and feedback from our work.
