Energy firm Verigy outlines past county projects, seeks county follow-up
Summary
Brian Gifford, senior account executive for Verigy, presented the company's experience with energy‑savings projects including work in Rock Hill and Washington County and asked county staff to discuss potential opportunities in Lawrence County.
Brian Gifford, senior account executive for Verigy, spoke to the commissioners about the company’s local government energy service work and cited recent projects as examples. “We saved Rock Hill approximately $9,000,000 in savings,” Gifford said, and he told commissioners Verigy is finishing a roughly $19,000,000 project in Rock Hill.
Gifford referenced a five‑year, 12‑phase engagement in Washington County that he described as approximately $27,000,000 in project value, and he said Verigy has performed work in multiple county courthouses and facilities. He also said Verigy has completed two projects in Lawrence County — Rock Hill and the Fairland school district — and provided case studies in the packet he left with county staff.
The board did not take formal action on a contract; county administrators indicated staff would follow up. Commissioner Copley and county administrator Dylan Bentley said they had the presenter’s contact information and would have Dylan Bentley’s office reach out to explore any opportunities or next steps.
