Engineering-led. Results-driven. Building the next generation of operational intelligence for commercial thermal systems.
Advanced Energy Management, Inc. (AEM) is a Delaware C-Corporation focused on intelligent energy management for commercial domestic hot water, pool heating, and related thermal systems.
Founded by engineers with decades of hands-on experience in DHW system design, optimization, controls, and utility incentive programs, AEM developed the NOVARA platform to deliver real-time monitoring, AI-driven optimization, predictive maintenance, and verified savings reporting.
We combine deep domain expertise with modern software and hardware to help property owners, managers, and operators cut energy costs, extend equipment life, and meet sustainability goals.
We don’t just install hardware — we deliver measurable, ongoing performance.
50+ years of collective experience in DHW systems, heat pumps, tankless racks, recirculation, controls, and field implementation.
Deep knowledge of SoCalREN, SoCalGas, NMEC M&V, incentives, and rebate pathways to maximize project value.
NOVARA is designed as a modular intelligence layer — hardware + Optima Pro Link + Advise + Alert — that grows with your needs.
Focus on real, reportable savings rather than estimates. M&V-compliant reporting supports incentives and internal accountability.
“Nova” (new / next-generation) + “Vara” (value / verification / variability / adaptability). NOVARA represents next-generation operational intelligence that adapts, verifies, and delivers value continuously.
We are building the industry’s most advanced platform for optimizing commercial thermal systems and driving measurable financial performance — starting with domestic hot water and expanding to pool heating and HVAC.
