Abraxas Energy Consulting is a mid-sized engineering services firm based in Atascadero, California. Founded in 2001 by John Avina, it focuses on commercial energy efficiency, offering ASHRAE energy auditing, retro-commissioning, utility bill tracking support, and advisory services for energy managers, energy consultants, and ESCOs. It also conducts Energy Star benchmarking to help municipalities enforce energy ordinances in cities such as San Francisco, Denver, and Boulder. In 2024, Abraxas joined the Hillmann Family of Companies following Hillmann Consulting's acquisition of the firm on July 1. The integration broadened Abraxas's capabilities, enabling more end-to-end solutions through collaboration with Hillmann’s environmental, real estate due diligence, building science, and construction teams, and positioning the firm to support asset lifecycles with emphasis on energy performance, compliance, risk management, and long-term operations. The combined entity targets commercial real estate owners, developers, and lenders with energy audits, RCx, and sustainability consulting services.
