Overview

Following Antin Infrastructure Partners’ acquisition of an existing district energy business for $1.25 billion – we managed the launch of the new entity, Vicinity Energy, across a number of key regions. In addition to trade press, we heightened Vicinity’s visibility in the company’s most vital markets: Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Trenton, Grand Rapids and Kansas City. We successfully placed stories spotlighting the company’s CEO in outlets such as the Boston Globe, the Philadelphia Inquirer, POWER Magazine and Trenton Daily.

 

Our Work

In addition to trade press, we heightened Vicinity’s visibility in the company’s most vital markets: Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Trenton, Grand Rapids and Kansas City. We successfully placed stories spotlighting the company’s CEO in outlets such as the Boston Globe, the Philadelphia Inquirer, POWER Magazine and Trenton Daily. We have been instrumental to the company’s rebranding campaign as a key partner in major cities’ decarbonization efforts. Today Vicinity Energy is an energy leader with the nation’s most extensive portfolio of district energy systems in the country, offering an innovative carbon-free, renewable thermal energy technology to major institutions across its footprint.

As companies and institutions commit to becoming carbon neutral in their operations, it will be critical to decarbonize at scale using a technology neutral system like district energy. Vicinity is the first district energy company in the U.S. to commit to fully decarbonizing its operations, offering renewable thermal energy by installing electric boilers, industrial-scale heat pumps, and thermal storage at its central facilities starting in Boston and Cambridge, with other districts to follow.
