Inc. Magazine today ranked Green Generation Solutions, LLC (GreenGen) number 380 on its 35th annual Inc. 5000 with revenues exceeding $11 million in 2015, up more than 1,000 percent since its inception in 2011. The Inc. 5000 is an exclusive ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. It represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the American economy—its independent entrepreneurs.

“Making the Inc. 5000 list is a great milestone for us. As entrepreneurs, we took a chance that the marketplace was interested in investing in energy efficiency solutions that make good business sense. As this list confirms, building owners and executives are looking to operate in the ‘green,’ and we look forward to helping them drive energy-related financial returns while going green,” said Brad Dockser, CEO of GreenGen.

Out of the top 500, GreenGen was among nine companies from Maryland and one of only two from Montgomery County, MD. Similar companies were listed under several categories including solar and energy. Among these firms doing demand-side energy work, GreenGen ranked fifth.

Since its inception five years ago, GreenGen has generated more than $4 million in annual energy-related savings for its clients, creating long-term value for clients’ assets and businesses. In that time, the firm’s annual revenues have grown in excess of 1,000 percent, and staff has more than doubled, as the firm has expanded globally, recently opening offices in London and Tokyo.
