EDISON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Albireo Energy, a leading independent building controls and energy services provider and a Huron Capital portfolio company, announced today that it has completed its acquisition of Quantum Building Solutions (QBS), a Dallas-Fort Worth-based provider of building automation and systems. Founded in 2019, QBS serves commercial, industrial and institutional customers throughout Texas.

“Quantum Building Solutions represents a strong strategic fit for Albireo Energy,” said Kevin Baxter, CEO of Albireo Energy. “Shane Ray and his team have built an exceptional business with talented people, established customer relationships and a reputation for outstanding service. Dallas-Fort Worth is a strategic growth market for us, and QBS provides a strong foundation to substantially expand our presence and capabilities across Texas.”

The acquisition establishes Albireo Energy’s operating footprint in Texas. The Dallas-Fort Worth market has significant commercial and industrial activity, including investment in data centers, advanced manufacturing, healthcare, and commercial infrastructure. These sectors require building automation systems, systems integration, and ongoing building services, aligning with the capabilities of QBS and Albireo Energy.

Shane Ray, who founded QBS in 2019, will continue to lead the business as vice president and general manager. The QBS team will remain in place, maintaining continuity of customer relationships, service and existing commitments.

“We’ve built QBS around exceptional people, trusted relationships and a commitment to delivering for our customers,” said Shane Ray, founder of QBS. “Joining Albireo Energy gives us the scale, resources and capabilities to take the next step. We’re excited to build on what we’ve accomplished, create new opportunities for our employees and bring even greater value to customers throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth market.”

By combining QBS’s local expertise and customer relationships with Albireo Energy’s national scale, building owners and teams will benefit from expanded technical capabilities, including access to Albireo Energy’s Managed Services Center and portfolio of Intelligent Services, such as alarm management, private cloud hosting, and fault detection and diagnostics.
