Acclaim brings stability to an unstable energy market.
Because energy prices have been low and relatively stable for most of the last two decades, controlling energy costs has not been a high priority. However, today's high prices and extreme volatility requires continuous attention and management.
The perfect storm
Record-high energy prices, combined with extreme volatility, compliance concerns, and stakeholder pressure have created the potential for catastrophic consequences, making risk management critical to controlling energy usage, emissions and cost.
By partnering with Acclaim, you can supplement your existing staff's capabilities and consult with our experts at a fraction of the cost of establishing an in-house team. Our expertise and proprietary tools give you the ability to make sound energy-related decisions that can enhance revenues, reduce expenses and control risk.
How to begin
Sound energy management begins with a clear view of our clients’ goals, coupled with organized, audited historical utility data. This corrected data helps us produce a clean baseline for sound energy analyses, strategies and applied solutions. We simulate budget scenarios, enable the prioritization of energy-conservation opportunities and assess asset utilization to help us form the foundation for effective strategies. Our approach helps you manage price risk, structure procurement contracts, identify and fund new projects, while measuring and verifying the cost savings due to your energy conservation efforts.
Managing energy price risk
Managing risk effectively requires understanding your company's willingness to tolerate budget uncertainty while pursuing the lowest possible price. Acclaim goes beyond the limitations of traditional analytical tools. Our risk-management professionals, equipped with the latest tools, and market data, can analyze the numerous variables, develop a comprehensive strategy, and provide hedge-execution support needed to achieve your financial goals.
Social responsibility
How does your company stand on your social responsibility concerning the environment? Acclaim helps you compile and organize your utility data, then aids you in prioritizing energy-efficiency and conservation project. At times we can even identify financial resources to help cover the cost, in addition to providing tools to measure the financial and emissions impact of those initiatives.
