About Energie

Buildings don’t need more complexity.
They need to work better.

Energie Solutions is a licensed electrical contractor focused on one thing: making commercial buildings cost less to run, need less attention, and perform reliably year after year.

The Story

A father, a son, and a pile of maintenance tickets.

In 2016, Tim Petro founded LED Solutions on a simple insight: commercial buildings waste an enormous amount of money on lighting that nobody thinks about. Property owners were fielding maintenance calls every week. Electricity bills kept climbing. The fixtures were failing faster than they could be replaced.

Matt Petro, Tim’s son, joined the business full-time in 2020 — right into a company that was struggling through COVID and running a negative P&L. Instead of cutting, he rebuilt: every process, every install standard, every client conversation.

The company that emerged does something different. It approaches buildings as electrical systems, not as overhead. It measures before it recommends. It installs with long-run thinking instead of next-quarter thinking. And it maintains what it builds — so the savings still work five and ten years in.

In 2026, LED Solutions became Energie Solutions — reflecting what the company actually does now: full electrical contractor work, lighting, controls, and ongoing service, all under one contract.

How We Work

Four things we don’t compromise on.

Licensed and accountable

We pull our own permits, install our own work, and stand behind it. Not a broker. Not a consultant. We're the electricians on the roof.

Measure first, spend second

Every proposal is built from your actual utility bills, your actual fixtures, your actual burn hours. We don't guess — and we don't let you guess either.

Long-run thinking

We design and install so the savings keep working five and ten years in. Then we maintain it so nothing slips. A retrofit that's forgotten in three years isn't a retrofit — it's a write-off.

Real people on the roof

Our crews are W-2 employees with safety training, tools, and accountability. Not day labor. Not subs subcontracted from subs. The people who designed your job are the people who install it.

Leadership

The people behind the work.
