Bluestone Energy was recently profiled in the Baltimore Business Journal about their recent addition of a Baltimore office. From the article:
High electricity rates and local incentives for energy efficiency in Greater Baltimore have drawn a Massachusetts energy company to open an office here.
Bluestone Energy Services of Norwell, Mass., opened what will initially be a small office with a regional staff of two salespeople, said Adam Fairbanks, Bluestone’s vice president for engineering and business development. But Fairbanks said the company expects to see growth here because companies are looking for ways to lower their energy bills.

“It’s more cost-effective for companies to do these programs here because [energy] is more expensive,” Fairbanks said.
He pointed to a Baltimore Gas and Electric Co. program that offers commercial and industrial companies financial incentives to improve energy efficiency as a reason the company was interested in Baltimore. BGE Vice President for Strategy and Regulatory Affairs Mark Case has said the utility, the region’s largest with 1.2 million electric customers, is looking to attack problems of strained electric capacity by reducing consumption.
