A Simple Proven Process
Data Gathering
Our clients provide us all utility bills and we complete a detailed company profile. We benchmark the billing against our proprietary database—analyzing rates, metering, duplicate charges, and compliance with regulation.
Audit & Implementation
Once errors and overcharges are identified, we communicate directly with providers to secure refunds or adjust future billing; and coach your team on reading and guarding invoices.
What types of companies have benefited from a Utility Bill Audit?
Clients across industries—from regional credit unions to global manufacturers—have seen refunds ranging from hundreds of thousands of dollars up to multi millions in ongoing savings over several years. Moreover, the process reframes how organizations visualize utility spend—transforming billing from a rear-view check into a managed asset with predictable outcomes.
Companies most likely to find significant savings are with more complex operations, such as multiple locations, different types of energy usage in different sites, or uses of wide range of equipment with different load profiles.
Frequently asked questions
Why are there errors or overcharges on my bills?
Very often we find that the account wasn’t set up with enough detail in the first place. Most of the time, someone calls up and says, “we just moved into a new facility, we need the utility account switched over to our name on xx date.” The utility responds with, “ok, sign here.”
If no one took the time to determine (a) When is the electricity or natural gas being used?, (b) How is the electricity or natural gas being used?, (c) For what purpose is the energy being used?, and (d) What is the demand profile?; chances are your account was setup incorrectly.
Should utility bill be looked over if there are changes in the operations?
Many types of operational changes can affect your energy usage profile, such as (a) growing energy needs, (b) changes in the facility; (c) addition/subtraction of equipment, (d) change in purpose of space (office to warehouse, industrial, etc.), and (e) renewable energy production, LED light or other efficiency installations.
How complicated is it to figure out utility regulations?
You wouldn’t undertake the comprehension of the IRS code by yourself – you probably have trusted advisors who specialize in understanding what applies to you, and how you can use it to pay the least amount possible in taxes.
