Arcadia (formerly ENGIE Impact)
Arcadia is an energy management platform for enterprises with large, multi-site portfolios. It brings utility bill payment and audit, energy procurement, and sustainability work into one system, combining data automation with an advisory team.
Utility expense management covers collecting every invoice, validating charges against expected patterns, historical baselines, and tariff structures, paying accounts on schedule with an audit trail, and building budgets and forecasts from actual consumption, seasonality, and rate structures. Rate monitoring models site-level usage against regulated tariffs to check that each site sits on its best available rate. The same collect-validate-pay model is applied to waste billing across hauler networks and to fixed and wireless telecom.
Procurement covers retail energy sourcing in deregulated markets, from risk assessment and supplier evaluation through contract negotiation and portfolio management, plus renewable strategy and regulated tariff optimization. A waste advising team runs on-site facility audits and waste characterization studies, negotiates with vendors, audits compliance against RCRA, OSHA, HIPAA, and local rules, and builds recycling, composting, and zero-waste programs.
Arcadia was founded in 2014 and has grown by acquisition, bringing in Genability's tariff intelligence, Urjanet's utility data automation, and ENGIE Impact, the enterprise utility bill management business. Its stated customers are Fortune 2000 companies with hundreds of locations and energy spend in the hundreds of millions. Pricing is not published, so ask how fees are structured, whether per site or per invoice, and which acquired platform your account would run on.
