What problem does it solve?
Helps commercial and industrial energy buyers reduce total energy cost and budget volatility by codifying procurement best practices for electricity and natural gas, including tariff optimization, demand charge management, PPA evaluation, and layered hedging across multiple facilities and markets.
Core Features & Use Cases
- RFP and Contract Strategy: Design multi-site RFPs, compare fixed, index, and block-and-index offers, and recommend layered procurement schedules to manage market timing risk.
- Tariff & Bill Optimization: Decompose utility bills into energy, demand, capacity, T&D and riders to identify switching or enrollment opportunities and to model ratchet exposure.
- Demand Charge Mitigation: Analyze 15-minute interval data to locate peak intervals, evaluate load shifting, battery peak shaving, and DR program participation with stacked-value ROI.
- PPA and REC Evaluation: Model physical and virtual PPAs, quantify basis and curtailment risk, and assess REC strategies for market-based Scope 2 accounting.
- Use Case Example: Produce a blended procurement recommendation for 25 facilities in PJM and ERCOT that locks 60% of volume on fixed blocks, preserves 40% index exposure, and models demand charge savings from a proposed battery deployment.
Quick Start
Generate a multi-site procurement plan that optimizes tariffs, demand-charge mitigation, and PPA tradeoffs using provided 15-minute interval data, current tariff sheets, and target budget constraints.
