What does this mean to you as a business owner or someone trying to control costs in this continuing difficult economy?
Energy prices are on the rise again…period.
Gasoline prices are already at almost record levels reached back in 2008 when Crude Oil hit an all-time high. Recent increased tension in the Middle East draws additional concerns as to how much higher oil and gasoline prices will continue to rise.
A direct result has contributed to a dramatic increase in costs for goods and services across the board. Food prices continue to increase at a rapid rate (fruit and vegetable prices have nearly doubled in the past 18 months) and additional industries that rely on petroleum products such as transportation and plastics are being forced to increase costs at the wholesale level that directly impact businesses and residential customers alike.
What is the solution to rising energy prices?
Let The Energy Advisory Group pro-actively manage your energy supply costs utilizing our full compliment of products and services and relationships with multiple top tier providers.
Energy Advisory Group has negotiated with top energy providers to secure significantly lower rates for your business, which can amount to savings of up to 25% on your monthly energy bill – anywhere from a few hundred dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Also, our intelligent online platform automatically tracks market conditions and trends to find your lowest rates.
Most of our commercial clients under contract through 3rd Qtr 2011 through 2nd/3rd Qtr 2012 are extending energy contracts due to low rates available and increased projected volatility between now and the end of their existing contracts. In most cases we are lowering their rate significantly in markets where the utility rate is on the rise.
Utility rates are based on current market conditions and recent posted rates have increased in virtually EVERY deregulated state in the US. If your business is not protected you are risking exposure to much higher energy prices in the months and years to come.
Rates typically increase in the summer and if we have a weather event similar to Katrina enter the Gulf of Mexico late this summer energy prices could actually double in a very short period of time.
