What Gets Reviewed

Our utility and energy cost review examines every component of your energy spend — electricity, natural gas, and related utility expenses — through a structured competitive supplier bidding process.

Electricity Supply Contracts

Rate structures, demand charges, time-of-use pricing, renewable energy credits, and supplier contract terms across all meters and locations.

Natural Gas Procurement

Gas supply agreements, transportation costs, basis differentials, storage arrangements, and hedging strategies for price-sensitive operations.

Water & Sewer Charges

Municipal water rates, sewer charges, stormwater fees, and consumption-based billing accuracy across all facility locations.

Billing Accuracy & Tariffs

Utility tariff classification, rate schedule appropriateness, billing errors, late fees, estimated-versus-actual usage reconciliation, and tax exemptions.

Renewable & Alternative Energy

Solar, wind, and renewable energy credit opportunities, on-site generation economics, and sustainability-linked energy procurement programs.

Usage Analytics & Benchmarking

Consumption patterns, peak demand management, facility benchmarking against similar operations, and efficiency opportunity identification.

Savings Potential

Where Savings May Be Found

The reverse auction process consistently drives energy costs down by creating genuine supplier competition — often with your existing provider winning at a lower rate.

Competitive Reverse Auction

Multiple qualified energy suppliers bid against each other in real time for your business. This pricing discipline typically yields 10–25% savings versus existing rates — without switching providers if your incumbent offers the best terms.

Contract Timing Optimization

Strategic contract renewal timing aligned with market conditions — avoiding automatic rollovers at unfavorable rates and capturing market dips when energy prices soften.

Billing Error Recovery

Utility billing errors are surprisingly common — incorrect tariff classifications, meter multipliers, demand ratchets, and tax exemptions. Recovery of historical overcharges can generate one-time credits and ongoing savings.

Demand-Side Management

Reducing peak demand charges through load shifting, energy efficiency measures, and demand response programs — often 30–40% of total electricity cost is demand-related.

Target Audience

Who This Is For

The utility and energy cost review is designed for organizations where energy represents a material operating expense.

Manufacturers

Energy-intensive manufacturing operations where electricity and natural gas costs represent 3–8% of total operating expenses.

Distribution & Logistics

Large warehouse and distribution networks with significant lighting, HVAC, and material handling energy consumption across multiple facilities.

Commercial Real Estate

Office buildings, retail centers, hospitality properties, and mixed-use developments with multi-tenant energy management requirements.
