Energy services provider Ameresco Inc. of Framingham lowered its revenue and profit expectations for 2012 today, citing storm-related weather delays in the fourth quarter of last year and challenges in the solar market.
The company said it expects revenue to fall in the range of $630 million, down from its original expectations of $640 million to $660 million. Meanwhile, it expects profits in the range of $17 million to $19 million, down from $22 million to $25 million.

Ameresco is expected to release its full-year and fourth-quarter results on March 1.
