Company profile
researched Sep 2026EnergyHawk operates a commercial and industrial (C&I) prospecting and data platform aimed at sales teams across the energy sector. The company models annual and monthly kWh usage, demand (kW) profiles and rooftop solar capacity (kW) for large C&I facilities, and exposes that data through a searchable interface where users can filter by country, city, state or utility zone along with rooftop area (sq ft), industry, building size, solar capacity and consumption thresholds. Records include business name, address, phone number, utility zone, industry classification, rooftop size, estimated kWh usage, demand, rooftop solar capacity and an initial max-fit PV design. The company states that energy consumption, solar savings and rate data are estimates rather than exact figures.
The product line comprises the EnergyHawk C&I Platform, sales automation campaigns, enterprise integration and custom C&I data deliverables. Custom exports are delivered by the EnergyHawk team in Excel or CSV format, scoped by geography and by criteria such as rooftop square footage, solar capacity, demand, kWh usage, industry and PV panel quantity. A "C&I Sales Engine" offering combines data export with contact enrichment through Apollo.io and outbound cold-email campaigns run through Instantly.ai, at volumes described as up to 1,000 emails per week, with qualified meetings passed to the customer's team. Solution areas marketed by the company are solar plus storage, demand response, C&I energy sales and industrial ESCO work.
