Energy Services of America (ESOA) Acquires Rigney Digital Systems to Enhance Operational Capabilities

Energy Services of America Expands Capabilities with Rigney Digital Systems Acquisition

Energy Services of America Corporation (ESOA), based in Huntington, West Virginia, enhances its operational scope through the acquisition of Rigney Digital Systems Ltd Co. on September 30, 2025. Rigney, a well-established HVAC control systems provider located in Hurricane, West Virginia, is known for its dedication to designing, installing, and servicing advanced HVAC control systems that optimize energy efficiency and comfort for clients. The acquisition not only expands Nitro Construction Services, Inc.'s (a subsidiary of ESOA) expertise in building technology but also allows Rigney to maintain its brand identity and customer connections, ensuring a seamless transition for its existing clientele.

Under the leadership of Douglas Reynolds, President and CEO of Energy Services, the integration of Rigney into Nitro Construction is strategically beneficial. Reynolds emphasizes that this acquisition complements Nitro's existing services, enabling the company to offer smarter, more efficient building solutions. With over 1,000 employees, Energy Services aims to leverage its extensive workforce and experience in the mid-Atlantic and Central regions of the United States, particularly within the natural gas, petroleum, and chemical sectors. By bringing Rigney's specialized knowledge in HVAC systems into the fold, ESOA positions itself to tackle increasingly complex projects while enhancing its service offerings.

Moreover, Rigney Digital Systems retains autonomy within the Nitro Construction family, ensuring that its established staff and customer relationships remain intact. This operational independence fosters an environment where Rigney can continue to innovate and grow within the HVAC controls and building technology sectors. The move is seen as a strategic step towards reinforcing Energy Services' commitment to delivering reliable and innovative solutions, ultimately enhancing the company’s reputation in the industry.

In addition to the acquisition, Energy Services of America, with its rich history spanning over 60 years, continues to prioritize safety, craftsmanship, and long-term partnerships with clients. The integration of Rigney Digital Systems is expected to further bolster these commitments and expand the company’s portfolio of services.

This acquisition reflects a broader trend in the energy services industry, where companies are increasingly focusing on enhancing their technological capabilities to meet the growing demand for energy-efficient solutions. As Energy Services of America moves forward, the firm is well-positioned to leverage its new capabilities to address the evolving needs of its diverse client base.
