How Much Money Can My Company Save on Energy?

Smart Company Growth CEO Karl Walinskas was responsible for the energy contract at his last employer, and held the same skepticism regarding energy broker, and he was approached by a lot of them.  Some were more concerned about the customer’s well being than others.  He ultimately saved his company $140,000 over 18 months just by renegotiating the base price per kWh, this on a total electric spend of about $1.4 million annually.

Maybe your numbers aren’t that large due to usage or an already solid contract price.  Would they have to be to entertain quotes?  It is well within reason to expect savings that can be above 5 figures if not 6 for most industrial companies.  The math is simple but we’ll do it for you.  Click on the Energy Savings Calculator button in the sidebar and you can find out how much you can be saving.

There are many other ways to consultatively help reduce your consumption and impact your energy spend even greater, and we can help you with that, but they require you to do something—change a process, upgrade equipment, insulate, etc.  Getting a better electric price is effortless for companies.  The only thing they have to do is make the decision.

Is My Company Eligible for the Energy Choice Program?

Does competitively pricing your electric service make sense for your business?  It depends on your answers to these questions:

• Are you in a de-regulated state for electricity purchases?
• How significant is your company consumption? (If you’re a small office with a few lights, you may not move the needle of significance in savings)
• Are you currently on an indexed or variable price?
• Is your current contract with your source of electricity expiring soon?
• Is your current contract at a much higher than market rate for your state right now?
• Are you strapped for resources and cannot afford the time to establish relationships with up to 30 companies and manage price quoting all of them?

Pay attention to those two contract questions, especially the second one.  If your smack dab in the middle of a contract with a current provider, it wouldn’t be a contract if you could cut and run with no penalty, and these can be substantive.  We would not impinge upon any current contracts until they have run their course, but hasten to remind you that depending on the trend line of electricity prices and industry expectations in the market, you can negotiate a contract now for the day your current contract expires to secure a lower rate going forward.

The Simple Process of FREE Energy Choice Comparison

1. We need your permission to negotiate on your company’s behalf.  All you need to do is fill in the PDF Letter of Authorization (LOA) that grants dozens of power companies your permission to provide quotations to us on your behalf.  Click on the Online LOA button in the sidebar to fill in and download your copy, and FAX it or PDF scan it back to us.  You can even upload it to the website along with your bills through Document Exchange.
2. We require two months of utility bills (electric and/or natural gas) and go to the marketplace to obtain competitive pricing and options. 
3. We present you with competitive analysis and current quotations, showing your projected savings based upon historical usage of each.  You make any decisions to switch and you are under NO OBLIGATION to Smart Company Growth or iPower6 to do so.  The power savings simply must speak for themselves. 
4. If you elect to switch providers, you’ll sign a contract with the REP chosen from among your options.  Smart Company Growth nor iPower6 is a party to this agreement. You begin seeing power savings upon your first bill of the new contract.

Why use Smart Company Growth and iPower6 for my company Energy Choice?

This is nothing new and there are plenty of brokers in the United States, so what makes iPower6 different when they are in your corner?  We’re not going to claim competitive advantages that every other provider of this service can claim, things like we have better people or will treat you better than everyone else.  Everyone says that and most believe it. 

Two things that hit right to your pocketbook:

1. The 30+ REP provider pool is 2-3 times more than most brokerages bring to the table to vie to provide your company with power.  That increases the likelihood of our obtaining incredibly attractive pricing exponentially.  The fact is, depending on your company location and how a given REP is doing in a current economy, the hunger level they have to earn your business varies.  Increased sources improve the odds for you.
2. iPower6 takes a smaller commission for this service that the industry average.  Their income is paid by the provider as you might expect.  Those differences are passed along to customers.  The iPower6 business model is to provide companies with the lowest cost power by significant amounts to earn repeated opportunities to re-quote their business in future contract years.
