Energy Independence. More Choice. Less Waste.
An Annual Reduction of $150,000
A Scalable Solution Providing Visibility into Energy Consumption Reduces Energy Bills by 26%
The Challange
Inability to scale and expand
Overspend chipping at net profits
Many locations and no overall energy strategy
With volatility in the cost of energy bills chipping away at net profits, a large utility management company was looking for ways to optimize their client’s energy operations.
Given that many of their client’s operations span multiple geographical locations, this company was looking for a solution that could be easily scaled and tailored to providing clear visibility into energy consumption, cost, and a well thought out strategy to budget for.
This organization was seeking a way to gain reliable market data and analysis that would help make the facilities they managed operate and use energy more efficiently. Unfortunately, like most internal teams, they were under-equipped to analytically make educated decisions on energy procurement purchases. They also lacked information to help identify any changing energy-related regulations across their location footprint.
The Solution
Following an extensive selection process, this organization identified Energy Professionals as the most suitable partner to address its energy management needs.
Energy Professionals built a custom strategy, developed with a combination of customer specific data, market intelligence, and an energy procurement RFP process that allows for organizations to simply review all the compiled data, while not having to disrupt their typical daily operations.
After the necessary data evaluations, we proceeded to amass a baseline data set that could be used for creating an RFP that accounts for the organizations unique energy profile. This includes any organizational goals and objectives that need to be considered throughout the process. Energy Professionals submitted the RFP, with the goal of uncovering quantifiable results that will result in a cost reduction, and budget certainty.
The Result
$150,000 annual savings
Complete and scalable energy strategy
26% Energy Bill Reduction
Once the RFP process was complete, Energy Professionals compiled all the pertinent data, summarized the results, and provided an industry expert opinion on which direction the organization should look at going. The initial process successfully mapped out how a handful of locations would be able to reduce costs by roughly $20,000 annually. Due to the overwhelming success of their maiden voyage with Energy Professionals, the organization then opened the process to all their locations nationally.
Now, almost 8 years into the relationship with Energy Professionals, this organization has stabilized their energy budget, and enjoy an overall reduction of their energy costs, by 26%, which equates to an annual reduction of $150,000. While this relationship has made a major impact on their bottom line, this process started by simply being open to the idea of better management through an industry leader like Energy Professionals.
