Verdani Partners and Transparent Energy Highlight Long-Standing Collaboration as Part of Partner Program Launch
Verdani Partners is pleased to continue its long-standing strategic collaboration with Transparent Energy as Verdani launches its Partner Program, bringing together trusted technology, data, technical, and implementation partners that help real estate clients move from strategy to action.
SAN DIEGO, CA — September 8, 2026 — Since 2023, Verdani and Transparent Energy have worked together to support commercial real estate clients evaluating off-site renewable energy procurement opportunities, market-specific energy options, and portfolio-wide decarbonization strategies. The collaboration combines Verdani’s client-facing sustainability advisory, decarbonization planning, and real estate program management expertise with Transparent Energy’s energy procurement analytics, market intelligence, and renewable energy procurement capabilities.
Transparent Energy has also supported Verdani’s Renewable Energy Market Impact tool, REMI™, by providing energy market data used to help identify building-specific and portfolio-wide renewable energy opportunities. REMI helps clients evaluate regional energy markets, emissions profiles, procurement options, and cost/emissions trade-offs across real estate portfolios.
“Transparent Energy has been a strong partner to Verdani since 2023, and we are pleased to double-down on this productive collaboration as we launch Verdani’s Partner Program,” said Daniele Horton, Founder and CEO at Verdani Partners. “Together, we help clients better understand renewable energy market options, assess procurement pathways, and connect decarbonization strategy with practical energy decisions.”
Through REMI and Verdani’s collaboration with Transparent Energy, clients can evaluate a range of off-site renewable energy strategies, including Renewable Energy Certificates, physical Power Purchase Agreements, virtual Power Purchase Agreements, green utility programs, community solar, and renewable asset-backed retail contracts. The analysis helps clients understand how program availability, costs, emissions impacts, and market structure can vary significantly by geography.
A key focus of the collaboration is helping clients move beyond broad renewable energy goals into market-informed procurement strategy. REMI supports portfolio-level analysis by mapping emissions intensity across properties, comparing renewable energy procurement pathways, assessing cost and emissions trade-offs, and helping clients evaluate timing and contract options in alignment with fund targets, portfolio needs, and decarbonization timelines.
“Transparent Energy is looking forward to building upon the strong foundation we have established with Verdani Partners in supporting commercial real estate clients with the market intelligence, procurement expertise, and renewable energy options needed to make informed, cost-saving, energy decisions,” said Paul Shagawat, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Transparent Energy. “Together, we are helping clients navigate a complex and expensive energy market, identifying practical pathways – backed by unrivaled procurement execution – to meet their energy needs and advance their sustainability, decarbonization, and budgetary goals.”
The Verdani–Transparent Energy collaboration is part of Verdani’s broader Partner Program, which brings together trusted, high-performing partners across technology, data, technical services, implementation, and specialized advisory support. Verdani remains vendor-non-exclusive and client-first in its advisory approach, evaluating partner solutions based on quality, fit, responsiveness, technical depth, market relevance, and alignment with each client’s portfolio needs and long-term business priorities.
As renewable energy markets, reporting expectations, and decarbonization strategies continue to evolve, Verdani and Transparent Energy see continued opportunity to help real estate clients make more informed, market-aware energy procurement decisions that support risk management, cost evaluation, emissions reduction, and long-term portfolio performance.
