    We believe one of the clearest constraints on the energy transition is skilled labor. Electrification requires physical buildout at scale, and that, in turn, requires a workforce with the technical skills to deliver it. As a result, companies are seeing project timelines shaped by workforce availability, and demand/execution risk being increasingly tied to the ability to deploy labor at scale. Asad Rahman (Galvanize Global Equities) sat down with Jeffrey Sprau (CEO, Legence) to discuss how the company is navigating this challenge given its role in the buildout as a building performance platform. As the transition shifts from planning to building, skilled labor is emerging as a critical constraint on growth. We believe companies that can navigate this constraint effectively are likely to be the ones that create disproportionate value.

  • High‑performance buildings start with high‑performance systems. At San Diego State University’s Imperial Valley campus, A.O. Reed & Co., a Legence company, served as the design‑build mechanical contractor for the new Sciences and Engineering Laboratories, a 40,000‑square‑foot, all‑electric STEM facility. A.O. Reed delivered and installed the building’s all‑electric mechanical systems, including air‑source heat pumps and a 220‑ton air‑cooled chiller, supporting the precise environmental demands of teaching and research laboratories while advancing the project’s sustainability goals. The facility is designed to align with California’s decarbonization objectives and is targeting LEED Gold certification. Projects like this demonstrate how thoughtful mechanical design and execution play a critical role in creating resilient, future‑ready campuses. Proud to see A.O. Reed helping deliver infrastructure that supports STEM education today while planning for long‑term performance.
