The Patriot Ledger recently featured Bluestone Energy Services for company expansion. From the article:
NORWELL – Bluestone Energy Services LLC has announced plans to expand its corporate headquarters on Longwater Drive and add personnel.
Bluestone plans to enlarge its office space by 2,700 square feet, an expansion of a little more than 50 percent, said Sean Fuller, the company’s vice president of business development and marketing.
It will also add seven jobs in sales, engineering and project management, a 20 percent increase in staffing, Fuller said.
The company provides engineering and other services to help businesses cut their energy costs.
Bluestone President Ryan Blair said the expansion represents the next chapter in the company’s growth strategy.
“Over the past year Bluestone’s headcount significantly increased along with our customer base,” Blair said. “We look forward to serving new and current customers with even greater resources and personnel during 2014.”
Bluestone said the expansion would help it capitalize on growing demand for its services in a variety of sectors, including higher education, retail and data centers.
Founded in 1990 by Peter Fairbanks, the company moved to its current location in Norwell five years ago. It was purchased by OpTerra Energy Group of Colorado in 2011.
In addition the its Norwell headquarters, Bluestone has offices in five other states.
Bluestone recently completed an energy-efficiency project for Insports, a Connecticut sports facility, by adding an advanced controls system, replacing lighting with LED fixtures and securing the Energy Policy Act of 2005 federal tax benefit.
The company has secured millions of dollars in utility incentives for its clients by developing and implementing hundreds of energy conservation projects.
The companies that Bluestone has done work for include American Airlines, Biogen Idec, Genesis Management Group and the Stop & Shop Supermarket Co.
In November, the company appointed Robert Holdsworth to the New York-based position of business development manager for the tri-state area.
