Owned and operated by Jason Tankersley as a sole proprietorship, the Commercial Property in Hubbard, Texas, faced a pressing issue with escalating energy costs. Jason, conducting business under his personal name, was increasingly burdened by a variable energy rate of 14 cents per kWh, significantly impacting his operational budget.
Challenges
- Increasing Energy Costs: The property was subjected to a variable rate, which was continually rising, leading to unpredictably high energy bills.
- Time Constraints: Jason intended to research lower rate options but was unable to do so due to his demanding work schedule.
Solution
Our team stepped in to provide comprehensive support, including bill auditing and a detailed cost-savings proposal, to alleviate the burden of high energy costs.
Key Steps Taken
- Detailed Bill Audit: Conducted a thorough examination of the property’s energy bills to assess current costs and identify potential savings.
- Customized Savings Proposal: Developed several fixed-rate options to stabilize and reduce energy costs, with terms ranging from 12 to 60 months, allowing flexibility based on the property’s future needs.
Result
Jason decided to start with a 12-month term, locking in a new rate of 8.293 cents per kWh—a 40% reduction. This rate change significantly lowered the property’s energy expenses.
Conclusion
This case underscores the importance of proactive energy management and tailored solutions in managing operational costs for commercial properties. By simplifying the process and providing expert guidance, we helped the property owner achieve substantial savings and gain better control over his financial planning.
Note: While the exact dollar amount of savings is unclear due to unexpectedly high usage reported by the supplier, the reduction in the rate itself represents a significant decrease in costs.
