Utility Optimization Analysis Service
Utility companies, Federal and State legislation, energy prices, new technology, and your facilities are all dynamic. Things change, opportunities arise, new programs get created, old programs get shuttered, your business and energy usage grow and/or shrinks. The fluid nature of these different entities demands a consistent process and deep expertise if you wish to optimize operating costs. Having experts conduct a regular deep dive into your utility bills in search of ways to save money (and avoid spending future money) is an excellent energy management discipline that often pays for itself many times over. Typically, opportunities identified when assessing utility bills are no cost or low-cost capital investments. Making sure nothing is out of place or incorrect on your utility bills both maximizes profitability and delivers peace of mind.
How
Our utility bill analysts review your company’s utility bills for opportunities to save money and/or mitigate future costs. We review the rates (tariffs) your building is on and run side-by-side calculations comparing the other rates your utility offers to ensure you are on the optimal rate. We also review how much sales tax you are paying while assessing your state’s sales tax exemption laws to discover opportunities to mitigate paying sales tax. Finally, we analyze power factor, peak demand charges, energy efficiency charges and other line items on your bill to identify ways of spending less on energy.
After analyzing your utility accounts, we create a report which documents our findings, showing projected cost savings and other benefits if our recommendations are implemented. This educational report will act as a catalyst for us to pursue implementing the changes with the utility companies on your behalf.
