Overview

Energy auditors play an essential role in helping you understand the entire picture of your business or home’s energy condition. Properly conducted utility energy audits followed by a solid implementation plan often results in massive energy savings. Util’s process starts with an analysis of an initial data set we request from every partner, which is comprised of invoices, and related contracts. Util then communicates directly with the utility provider(s) to obtain historical usage data.

In addition to the application of proprietary knowledge and methods, the following bullet points outline some of the steps performed throughout the detailed audit process:

An analysis was performed to identify whether each account was on the most appropriate delivery schedule.

• All applicable aspects of the taxation of natural and/or piped gas were investigated including, but not limited to; state and local sales tax, gross receipts tax, utility tax, and energy tax.
• All available rate tariffs were analyzed to assure the most appropriate and cost effective billing structure is being applied to all accounts.
• Supply costs in deregulated markets were analyzed to assure that present pricing is in line with what the market dictates.
• Aggregation of supply across meters in utility markets was analyzed to assure pricing for the cumulative energy required, is optimized.
• Industry-specific, and use-specific programs were investigated, such as those rates available to schools, churches, or for gas used in space heating.
