GDS Associates, Inc. (GDS) is a multi-service consulting and engineering firm formed in 1986 and now employs a staff of more than 180 in seven locations across the U.S. Our Manchester, NH office is focused on offering energy efficiency services for residential, commercial, and industrial clients throughout the Northeast and nationwide. Our residential service offerings include HERS Ratings and code testing for homes in New Hampshire as well as in Massachusetts and Maine.

As part of a multi-state U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)-funded grant, GDS, in partnership with the New Hampshire Office of Energy and Planning and the New Hampshire CORE Electric and Gas Utilities are working with other stakeholders to move forward in the planning and development of a Home Energy Score Program for delivery within the state. As a Home Energy Score Partner, GDS will serve as a statewide coordinator to parties interested in offering the Home Energy Score. Under this DOE grant, New Hampshire is also working closely with the neighboring state of Vermont and their Department of Public Service, the Vermont Energy Investment Corporation and the Energy Futures Group. 

GDS is looking to work with home inspectors and weatherization specialists to offer the Home Energy Score at point of sale, and with Realtors® to help promote the Score. GDS is also working with the New Hampshire Utilities to examine how they may offer the Home Energy Score through their existing portfolio of energy efficiency programs.
