Water Demand Management
Water demand management and conservation aims to conserve water quality and quantity by controlling demand.

Conservation Pricing

Water is an increasingly valuable commodity. Whereas some parts of the country have historically recognized the value of water (the arid Southwest), other parts of the country where water has typically been plentiful are having supply issues due to population growth and environmental factors. As a result, more utilities are implementing programs to ensure that water is used as efficiently as possible. Many of these utilities have found that conservation pricing is integral to the success of their overall conservation program. The inclusion of a pricing component ensures that customers are receiving the appropriate financial signal that discretionary water use comes at a higher unit price.
RFC has significant expertise and experience in developing conservation-oriented rates and rate structures. Potential benefits of conservation pricing include delaying costly infrastructure expansions and enhanced environmental stewardship. Since each utility’s conservation objectives are different, there are a number of different rate structures that can be implemented to promote conservation. In order to establish and implement a conservation rate structure, it is necessary to:
•   Understand the conservation and financial objectives of the utility;
•   Identify costs associated with peak usage;
•   Develop appropriate consumption level cut-offs for identifying the usage that is surcharged; and
•   Estimate consumption that will be subject to the surcharge.
There are challenges associated with each of these tasks. For example, it can be very difficult to accurately estimate consumption because one of the goals of a conservation rate structure is to change consumption patterns. Since we have had the opportunity to assist a number of utilities in implementing conservation rate structures, we are well aware of the challenges and how to overcome them. One advanced approach to addressing the consumption challenge that RFC has successfully employed is the use of risk modeling to assess the potential for revenue variability associated with conservation rates.
WANT TO PAY LESS FOR YOUR TELECOM EXPENSES?
Telecom and data-com charges are a major expense for most organizations. But if you have the knowledge and know where to look for overcharges and inefficiencies, telecom is also the area where you can realize significant savings. Working with an experienced telecom consultant can make the process easier.
Why a telecom consultant is a good investment

Telecom bills are voluminous, specialized, and confusing. They are comprised of myriad coding details and pricing programs for a wide range of services including local, long distance, broadband, data, paging, cellular, and also includes maintenance services and various taxes and tariffs. An experienced specialist can help get results by accurately checking all invoices, finding billing errors worth pursuing and following up to get refunds from carriers.

Most Telecom Bills Contain Errors

Accepting telecom bills at face value can be an expensive decision for your organization. Recent industry surveys show that that telecom overcharging is rampant and that the amount of overcharges can be significant -- anywhere from 8-15%.   Since the average company spends 5-10% of its operating on telecom bills, the dollar amounts can be considerable. Even a small company with $200,000 in annual telecom expenses could be missing an opportunity to deliver an extra $20,000 to their bottom line each year!

Hire a Telecom Consultant

If your telecom bills contain overcharges, you are entitled to a refund. But your carrier is not going to help lower your bill, you will have to find the errors and present them yourself. That’s why you need an experienced consultant to lower your telecom bills.

Moving or Re-Organizing your Company?

If your company is moving or has recently undergone a merger or acquisition, or is managing multiple vendors and contracts for its telecommunication services, you are in a good position to realize significant cost savings.

Energy Savers Consulting Gets Results

Energy Savers Consulting has been reducing telecom and data-com bills for its clients since 1990.  Energy Savers gets results because we are specialists in managing telecom expenses and have many years of experience honing their skills. The average Energy Savers Consulting analyst has over 20 years of experience. Because our analysts are experienced and know what to look for, they can efficiently evaluate your invoices and find expensive errors. Energy Savers estimates that clients will generally save $2 dollars for every $1 spent on auditing and renegotiating services. However many clients have realized much higher ROIs, for example, one recent client spent $60,000 and saved over $2 million in telecom bills over a 3-year period!

Energy Savers Consulting Services offers a range of services to meet the needs of any organization, large or small. Services can range from project work such as telecom audit and bill review, contract negotiations, dispute resolution, and telecom service evaluation. However, Energy Savers also regularly performs ongoing services such as monthly bill paying and outsourcing key personnel to provide clients with specially trained telecom experts to help control their telecom costs.

The Audit Process

Our process involves the following stages. Throughout the process the client is kept abreast of our progress and a detailed report and analysis are presented prior to implementation of any claims or account changes.
1) Commencing The Analysis; Obtaining Information.
In this stage we obtain your utility account history detail from either the utility or the client. We also discover information about the facilities as needed. ES will obtain billing histories directly from the utilities using a Letter of Agency, as possible.
2) Performing the Analysis.
We then enter the data in to usable formats which can then be used to set billing parameters which indicate the need for further investigation. Using our proprietary software program, we develop hourly load profiles and review the cost under various alternative rate structures and operational scenarios. Experimental rates and programs are also evaluated. Further analysis, if warranted, is then performed and individually verified. In addition, ES researches current PUC programs and former PUC precedents to look for additional opportunities which you may benefit from.
3) Review of Past Charges and Optimizing Pricing
ES will also recalculate all billing that is suspect to verify charges. We attempt to verify meter read accuracy, demand charges, misapplied discounts and allowances, unapplied credits, power factor adjustments, and taxes. ES will review the applicability of tariffs for possible misclassification by the utilities. ES will review all overcharges to develop claims for refunds for the full length of term allowed by law that the overcharge may have occurred. We will discuss your case and negotiate with the utilities as needed. ES, at our discretion, will proceed to file complaints against the utility before the Public Utilities Commission for any unresolved issue.
4) Recommendations and Supplier Interaction
ES will draft all letters to the utility to activate any tariff changes. Your company personnel merely have to copy them on to letterhead sign and return them to us. ES will follow up the utilities and monitor the savings. We can also directly negotiate with your supplier or their affiliate and any available alternate suppliers for advantaged pricing. All suppliers will be ranked not only for price, but also for their stability and performance guarantees. ES assures that any alternate supplier chosen will not result in any reduction of quality of service.
5) Continued Review of Best Available Pricing
ES will continually review the national regulatory environment to identify any lower cost supplier, tariff, contract, programs or other means to reduce the operating cost to your company. This review will be periodic and dependent upon a number of factors including changes at the site (i.e. expansion, change in operating hours, etc.), by the vendor utility or incumbent supplier, changes in the industry or changes in regulatory matters.

Energy Savers Water Conservation - Water Audit Service

Energy Savers Water Audit Service provides facilities with a comprehensive review of their current water use, and helps a hotel operator or building engineer evaluate how much water a property can save. The service includes rigorous inspections, tests, and measurements and culminates with a detailed report that includes cost analysis and ROI modeling.

"We provide the client with a complete audit report and water conservation plan, which includes recommended corrective measures to save water," said Energy Savers "When appropriate, our plans include specific retrofit recommendations, and in most cases, result in an almost immediate payback, often with a double-digit ROI for the property." The service helps hotel operators and facilities managers conserve water and energy and reduce operating expenses.

The service evolved from customer demand. One of Energy Savers Healthcare customers asked if the company could help them discover the cause of a recent spike in water use. They did. Energy Savers work ultimately helped the customer save more than 5 million gallons of water, and hundreds of thousands of dollars in utility and sewer expenses, per year. Energy Savers now markets the service and has completed projects for both major healthcare concerns in California, Illinois and healthcare operators across the United States. The company's work-load continues to expand, and it has several new projects in the pipeline.

Grey Water and Rain Water Harvesting

Grey Water and Rain Water Harvesting

Many people are looking at or actively taking part in some kind of water recycling scheme. Mostly these tend to be personal rainwater systems used to irrigate our gardens. A few more of the ecologically minded people out there may well have implemented rainwater harvesting systems for use within their household systems such as washing machines and toilets. If people are not already at least capturing rain water for irrigation purposes then you really should be. A discussion on Low Carbon Economy by Viridis already exists on the site looking at a number of issues surrounding rainwater harvesting, please take a look.
In Britain although hard to believe if you harvest rainwater depending on the size of your roof and number of people in the house you may have to top up for tank from the mains supply, this obviously isn’t ideal. One way to top up your water harvesting is to utilize your “Grey Water”. “Grey Water” refers to the water used in showers, baths and sinks. This can be then recycled and used in the flushing of toilets quite easily. The questions that have been raised with me are in reference to the ability of any systems to sufficient clean grey water to then add it to the rain water supply. Some systems claim to be able to do this, which obviously provides great benefit to those with rain water harvesting systems already in place. However opinion is split as to whether you really should be mixing grey and rain water in the first place.
A closed grey water system, meaning the water does not enter the overall rainwater system, will dump unused grey water after a certain period of time. This prevents water becoming stagnant, smelling and preventing bacteria from reacting with the biological debris present.
If a grey water system is open then all biological debris will need to be removed (skin, bacteria, hair) before it can be incorporated into the wider system. These pollutants have to be removed to make the water suitable for clothes washing, dishwater water and irrigation. There are a number of questions that are raised in the approach. Some implementers recommend that you don’t mix the grey and rain water for the following reasons:
• Bad smelling water
• Water with high level of bacteria present might not be suitable for washing clothes
• Residue being left in the water tank will need cleaning out more regularly
• Hair from grey water will clog up pumps around the house/appliances
Without chemically and mechanically cleaning the water, there are doubts as to whether or not just gravity alone pushing the grey water through filters can sufficiently clean the water to the required standard. Presently based on the weight of opinion I’ve polled 2 consistent points have come through:
• Yes use grey water as it is a thoroughly useful resource
• Do not mix grey and rain water
Can any suppliers/installers of the grey water filters shed any light on this subject as to previous installations and the capabilities of their products? Are there any homeowners out there that have a similar system in place now?

Product Descriptions
Power purchasing options vary according to a company's size, location, energy usage and appetite for risk. The five most common types of electricity pricing products are listed below. The first four products also apply to natural gas (with the exception of the blend and extend).
Fixed price-full Requirements
Companies that require budget certainty and cannot bear price risk will select a fixed price-full requirements pricing strategy. "Full requirements" implies that a customer must take delivery of all of the operation's power needs at a certain price rate. Most suitable for the vast majority of commercial and industrial companies. When you include the “Blend and Extend” option provided by many suppliers, this is most attractive. With this, the contract price can be renegotiated (if the market goes down) and the length of term extended.
Fixed Price Block with remainder at index
For companies willing to shoulder some risk but have concerns about letting 100 percent of their energy pricing ride on the index, a block-and-index combination is a good choice. This offers the option of reducing price, while mitigating the risk of variable pricing.
This product lends itself well to a growing business that can layer in additional electricity usage as the business expands. The company can lock in a fixed price up front for a portion of its load and pay the index price for the remaining volumes. This strategy also makes sense if the company wants to lock in portions of the contract price at various times, since the company can buy multiple blocks of power over time.
Index Buying
Average of spot market settlements over the delivery period. Most suitable for industrial companies that can shed load, manage power consumption, pass on the cost of electricity to their customers, or use a majority of their energy during off-peak hours.
Index with Fixed Price Trigger
This allows companies to play the market with the option of locking in a price at a later time. Most Suitable for those willing to bear the risk of paying an index price but also want to take advantage of any market dips to lock in a fixed contract price. Companies considering this option should be able to handle a moderate degree of risk.
Heat Rate
Companies typically choose a heat rate product when they want to pay market-based prices and power indexes in the market are not available, or they are not as transparent as gas prices. Heat rate products are most popular when gas prices are expected to decline. Most suitable for companies having a strong commodities hedging function, sometimes choose heat rate-based electricity supply contracts. These companies are looking for ways to tie their expenses to expected revenue streams.

Started by a team of highly experienced purchasing consultants, energy aggregators and analysts, the company has grown to become one of the nation's leading electricity and natural gas procurement management firms serving commercial and industrial energy consumers. Energy Savers 2 Management has recently added Energy Efficiency and Conservation Services as well as Telecommunications Services Procurement to the company's growing list of service offerings. Energy Savers 2 manages the procurement of more than a 100 million dollars of energy on behalf of its clients. In almost all cases, fees are billed to the energy suppliers rather than to customers. The Company takes pride in providing the same level of outstanding service to all sizes of C&I clients, from the "Fortune 500" company to the "mom and pop" dry cleaner chain. The new practice team will perform comprehensive energy surveys and efficiency analyses on commercial and industrial buildings, equipment, and energy infrastructure, with recommendations and services to optimize energy efficiency and reduce operational energy costs.

Utility Cost Management

Utility Cost Management

Energy Savers 2 - YJ Draiman

As energy prices near record levels and continue to rise, now is the time to seek relief through a comprehensive study of your company’s utility costs, nationwide and worldwide. Cost reductions are available. Determine if you are purchasing at the lowest unit cost.
Utility bills appear to be an embedded expense that is usually dismissed as uncontrollable. Whether the bill is for electricity, heating and cooling or simply turning on the water tap, the costs and taxing of utility services can be reduced. In today’s deregulated environment, management of these expenses is more important than ever before.
In the ongoing quest for cost control, and in light of the fact that knowledge is truly power, the more you know about the nature of utility-related industries, the better you can control costs. Providers contend that the detection of errors or over-billings is the responsibility of the customer. Yet most companies have no specific knowledge, experience or direct data access to challenge rate or bill accuracy. Industry expertise, ongoing review and data connectivity are essential weapons in the hunt for these lost profits.
With a majority of medium to large business’ utility bills containing errors, ENERGY SAVERS and its team of consultants will serve as an independent resource to accomplish change, interface with providers, provide a sounding board for questions on deregulation, offer alternative suppliers and cost trends, and most important, improve your ability to recover erroneous or misapplied utility charges in one or all of the following service areas:

 Electricity
 
  Natural Gas


 Water
 
  Sewage                             Telecom/Data


Utilizing the experience and “inside information” of our auditing specialists, we evaluate invoices, track cost trends, benchmark rates and negotiate directly with vendors to generate refunds, obtain credits and justify company discounts. As rate and tariff experts, we will also examine your current situation, research cost saving opportunities and submit recommendations geared to impact your bottom line and generate future savings for years to come.
Our experienced negotiators will interface with your suppliers, regardless of where you purchase. As you expand, free advice is offered for new locations prior to the inception of service. This assures continuous cost control.
An ongoing review of current as well as future purchases insures against ever overpaying for utility requirements. Thousands of clients have enjoyed millions of dollars in cost savings. Regardless of high energy prices, you may still be able to pay less than current charges.
A competitive market is not the only place to save. Even in regulated markets, suppliers offer a variety of rates, schedules, riders, adjustments and other billing factors, all of which need expert review or you may be paying substantially more than necessary for the same service.
Today’s utility invoices are more complex and harder to understand. Rather than paying blindly, let an expert mine your company data for opportunity in the form of refunds, credits and ongoing price reductions. With a contingency- based fee, you only pay when you save money. There is no fee for the review. Every dollar saved goes right to the bottom line.
Our analysis is fully detailed and totally independent, as we have no ties to any particular supplier. This means impartial recommendations taking full advantage of all cost options, regardless of where you purchase. As prices change, our continuous analysis will identify more savings dollars.
Services are offered in all 50 states, Canada, South and Central America as well as in Europe, Asia and Australia. Representing over 200 years of collective experience, you will enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that utility costs are properly managed, so that each monthly purchase will be at the lowest unit price.
