Our Services

Portfolio and Asset Management

Electricity commodity pricing in Alberta changes hourly and can be extremely volatile. The continued evolution of the generation asset mix with significant increase in intermittent renewable resources increase this daily variance in pricing.

​

Controlling and managing electricity costs requires knowledge of how your operations can impact your bottom line. The solutions can range from changes to operations, equipment, or structured financial products that can stabilize your price.

​

Operational Support

​Many clients, such as Oil & Gas, typically have large number of sites which requires care and attention in several ways:​

• Site level tariff and contract review

• Facilitation of new service connections, upgrades, idle services,      and contract buydowns

• Interact with head office, field personal and electrical consultants    as required

​

Many larger customers have interruptible load assets or on-site generation that can participate in Ancillary Services markets or unique tariffs such as Demand Opportuntity Service.

Market & Regulatory Monitoring

Proposed changes to the electricity market design, transmission and distribution tariffs will continue to impact costs moving forward. As well, recent and continued policy changes by the Alberta Government that impact supply and demand dynamics in Alberta are monitored.​

 

We keep our customers informed of changes that impact your business and offer strategies to mitigate or take advantage of the market or tariff changes.

​

Custom Reporting & Bill Verification 

Timely and accurate reporting on usage profiles, market pricing, and delivery costs are essential components to audit, verify and highlight opportunities with respect to total electricity costs.

 

Our team can provide several different and customized reports including Monthly Dashboard, Site Level Detail, Account Review, Accruals, and Budgeting.
