Developing the right energy procurement strategy

Our energy procurement experts will review your strategy and cover the following key areas. Each is vital to reducing your costs as much as possible.

 

Long term budget

We split energy costs into two main groups: the commodity's cost and 'running the grid'. We provide a ' non-commodity budget ' by modelling these costs to fit your consumption profile over the next three years. Allowing us to understand better the commodity's price to meet your financial goals

Energy source

Businesses are saving money and making their energy supply more secure by using local energy sources instead of the National Grid. Consider whether a small or medium-sized local energy producer can supply some or all of your energy. This can help you avoid the rising costs of grid-supplied energy.

Purchase strategy

Adopting the most appropriate purchasing strategy for your business helps you manage risk. In addition to traditional 'fixed price for a fixed term' contracts, you may consider various flexible procurement strategies. Matching the right energy procurement strategy to your risk and reward expectations is an important step in managing your energy budget.

Revenue opportunities

Markets present revenue opportunities to businesses that can manage their energy load. They can do this by reducing consumption at nominated times or utilising on-site generation equipment to temporarily reduce dependency on grid electricity. We will analyse these options to uncover and maximise revenue streams that can offset your energy bills. Our energy procurement services can help identify and maximize these opportunities.

Charging structure

Our modular system lets you take a holistic approach to energy procurement and reduce energy costs. Ensure the tariff structure in your energy contract lets you get the most out of this approach. We will structure your contract to complement your usage profile, working patterns, and energy efficiency approaches.

Energy type

Many businesses seek to minimise their environmental impact wherever possible. We'll explore your green options and ensure you understand any extra costs associated with a green energy contract. We'll also help you mitigate them if possible.
