For a hundred years, power flowed one way. That's over.
Demand is surging and old plants are retiring faster than new ones are built. The grid can't keep up by building alone, so it now pays the buildings and businesses that can ease off when it counts.
Power in, money out. The only lever was using less.
Power in, payments back. Flexibility at peak is now something you can sell.
It started with one month of bills.
We found overcharges on bills they had already paid and got the money back. Then we found the power factor problem inflating every bill. Fixing it is projected to cut their bills every month.
Meter A used less energy and paid more than three times as much per kWh. Customer details removed; billed demand also reflects the utility's own demand rules.
Quote from the customer behind this case study goes here.
Utility bill audits, power factor correction and demand response, from one partner.
Utility bills are full of errors almost no one has time to catch. We find the overcharges you've already paid and get your money back.
Contingency · you pay nothing unless we recover money
Demand charges and power factor penalties land on every bill. We bring them down for good, and your equipment lasts longer too.
Typical payback · 10 to 18 months
We help you commit your flexibility at peak to the grid's demand response programs, so the grid pays you for easing off when it's short.
Paid from the same capacity price that raised your bill
“Most plant managers I meet know their power bills are too high. They just don’t have time to prove it. I’ve spent my career seeing things a few years before they happen. What I see now is batteries: in every plant, behind every big meter, earning money from the grid every day. That day is coming. Until it does, most companies are sitting on money they don’t know they have. I built 17 Ways to find it.”

Run a refrigerated fleet? We also cut diesel use on refrigerated trailers. In testing, the same fuel ran a reefer unit 25% longer. See how we cut fleet fuel →
