ABM Energy Expands Commitment to Guaranteed Energy Savings and Sustainable Solutions

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- ABM Industries Incorporated (NYSE:ABM), a leading provider of integrated facility solutions, today announced that the Company has formally chartered ABM Energy to implement energy technologies that are designed to reduce clients' energy consumption and operating costs and to meet the growing demand within the green and sustainable building market.

In establishing the new unit, ABM expands its existing commitment to client-focused energy solutions for building owners and operators in North America and various international locations. ABM offers clients in multiple industries guaranteed energy savings through a range of innovative financial and technical solutions that, over time, cover the costs of clients' investment. The Company successfully retrofits commercial, government, industrial, health care, educational and other facilities to help produce the guaranteed energy savings, reduce environmental impact and comply with government regulations. ABM significantly enhanced its capabilities with the 2010 acquisition of The Linc Group, a premier provider of technical building solutions.

ABM Energy will work across all of the Company's businesses to identify and deploy technologies and solutions that drive energy efficiency and sustainability — from state-of-the-art building improvements and electric vehicle charging stations to renewable energy sources and cogeneration systems. William Maurer, an industry leader with two decades of experience in delivering energy efficiency solutions, will serve as the Senior Vice President of ABM Energy. Through the course of his career, Maurer has helped clients realize hundreds of millions of dollars in energy-related savings. He will report to Tracy K. Price, ABM's Executive Vice President and President, ABM Facility Solutions.

Price said: "There is enormous focus and demand for energy independence and sustainability taking place across the globe. ABM Energy will enhance our leadership in innovative, technology-driven energy solutions. We have an exceptional track record where 100% of our bundled energy solutions clients can reference the quality and results of our work. ABM Energy is the natural outgrowth of our success in delivering energy solutions over the past two decades, and positions us to better assist clients in navigating through the myriad of energy efficiency solutions in the marketplace.
