LEAWOOD, Kan., Aug. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- American Energy Solutions, a leader in delivering comprehensive energy management strategies, today announced its new company name – Acumen Energy Solutions – marking a significant step in the organization's strategy to broaden its brand and service offerings in the global market.

In the last two years, the company has undergone a significant transformation, expanding its geographic reach while launching a new brand centered on offering effective procurement and conservation methods backed by the highest level of customer service. Today, Acumen Energy Solutions serves multi-site facilities and commercial, industrial, and institutional customers across the United States as well as in Canada and Mexico.

Shawn Rash, president of Acumen Energy Solutions, said the new name more accurately reflects the company's position as an international energy service company.

"Since opening our doors in 1998, we've made a concerted effort to build a culture focused on our customers," explained Rash. "We've established a strong infrastructure with some of the best and brightest in the energy industry, and we've continuously enhanced our services and products to meet the evolving needs of our clients. That's ultimately allowed us to significantly expand our operations beyond the U.S. borders, and this new name will only help us continue in that direction."

As Acumen Energy Solutions, the company remains committed to providing the same comprehensive energy management strategies and high-quality service its clients have grown accustomed to receiving over the years. There will be no disruption in operations and no changes in leadership and staffing as a result of the new name.

Although the renaming will take effect immediately, American Energy Solutions will be gradually phased out as the Acumen Energy Solutions name is introduced to existing and prospective customers. All future business activity will be undertaken with the Acumen Energy Solutions name.
