Energy Procurement

Acclaim obtains better prices and better terms.

The Acclaim Energy Procurement Service assists clients in the purchase of natural gas and electricity from competitive suppliers. Historically, businesses have managed their own energy procurement process. However, the deregulation of the marketplace has introduced complexities and nuances that Acclaim helps our clients understand and respond to effectively.

Our familiarity with all available pricing mechanisms allows us to identify the option, or mixture of options, that best meet your objectives. Because our experts are immersed in the marketplace, we are positioned to recognize and act upon opportunities as they unfold. Furthermore, since we are not affiliated with energy providers and hold no supply positions in the energy markets, Acclaim is completely unbiased in our recommendations. Acclaim will assess and recommend product and contract structures that fit your energy needs and risk appetite for today and the future.

In regulated markets, Acclaim evaluates the incumbent provider’s tariff to identify all of the factors that contribute to the calculation of your utility bills. While you may be restricted to a specific energy supplier, each tariff contains multiple rates, riders and general rules. Understanding each facility’s energy demand, usage and voltage profile can reveal opportunities to switch to more cost-effective options.

Once a new provider or rate is identified and selected, we monitor your billing on an ongoing basis to ensure established contracts remain in compliance. Should errors be found, we will facilitate a resolution.

Finally, we can identify special incentives at local, state and federal levels: for economic development, energy efficiency, interruptible service, renewable energy, sales tax exemptions and any other opportunities.

Going green

We recognize that many organizations are committed to reducing the impact of their energy consumption on the environment. Whether driven by internal operational mandates or the demands of external audiences, they seek to achieve their growth goals while protecting the environment and assuring sustainable energy options for the future.

Our recommendations for energy procurement, optimized consumption and risk management can, when applicable, include utilizing energy from renewable sources.

Acclaim is committed to promoting and supporting responsible energy usage. Capitalizing on our scope of services, we craft solutions that acknowledge the importance of striking a balance between organizational and societal needs — all while providing our clients with the options essential for making responsible decisions to both support the present and enable the future.

And, every Acclaim service includes our industry-leading customer service team, a trained, dedicated and knowledgeable group available to answer your questions and ensure your complete understanding and satisfaction.
