The DCO Difference

 

DCO is one of the largest generators of cogeneration and renewable energy projects in the Northeast. DCO personnel have developed more central energy facilities for the gaming industry than any other third party firm.

Why?

Our formula is simple - what we believe is the best energy experts in the business, coupled with tireless work on behalf of our clients, has resulted in repeat clients and one of the best reputations in the business.

We are a vertically integrated company. What does this mean for our clients?

It means that DCO handles all aspects of engineering, construction, start-up, commissioning and operating services, whether as a design/build or a design/build/own/operate project. It means a more efficient and cost effective project.

Most importantly, it means a teammate. Our clients never have to look very far because we are right next to them every step of the way.

We do not look for headlines, media attention or fanfare - we simply want to do what we do best, take care of your facility's energy needs, so you can focus on what you do best - whether your industry is gaming, education, healthcare or industrial.
