The US General Services Administration Energy Division said it has received a 2013 Federal Energy and Water Management Award for its demand response auctions, a project administered by World Energy Solutions (NASDAQ: XWES) and Leidos (NYSE: LDOS).
In January 2012, the GSA Energy Division, World Energy and Leidos ran the first forward auctions for demand response services by a Federal agency. The contracts awarded as a result of these auctions are expected to generate revenues of at least USD1.5m for the GSA and Department of Veterans Affairs, which can be re-invested into further energy efficiency and facility improvement projects.
The award specifically names GSA´s Linda Collins and Daniel Morrison, World Energy´s Luke McAuliffe, and Leidos´ Chris McCall for their work on the project.
