There are zero competitive supplier RFPs or negotiated PPAs available within Basic Supply. A portfolio that lands back there has no mechanism to price its own power.
Operating scale, enough spend and demand to attract credible supplier competition. Load stability, continuous operation at a high billing-cycle load factor. Portfolio weight, several load centers under one contracting framework.
A defined decision package. The approval package shows the full bridge from baseline spend to gross savings, fees, retained risks, and expected net benefit before the mandate is signed.
Preliminary eligibility against operating scale, load stability, and portfolio structure, plus the information gaps that would block a defensible recommendation.
Tariff structure, load indicators, market route, data gaps, and the likely scope of supplier competition the portfolio can attract.
The business case separates gross market savings from client net value, showing baseline spend, gross savings, fees, retained risks, and expected net benefit as distinct lines rather than one number.
Preliminary findings, a recommended next step, and the information list required for a full portfolio review, delivered within 1 business day.
No supplier commissions. No equipment sales. One accountable client-side mandate, so remaining on the current route is a valid recommendation when the evidence supports it.
What is the net benefit after fees and retained risk?
Full bridge from baseline spend to expected net benefit
What is our position if the legacy permit lapses without a route?
Permit status, migration route, and the fallback if nothing is done
Can the portfolio attract credible supplier competition?
Likely competition scope and a normalized RFP structure
Does the route change onsite responsibilities or continuity?
Site requirements, metering dependencies, and operating handoff
A battery and automotive components group achieved 18% on a qualified supply RFP across 45 MW and approximately 305 GWh at 9 plants. An advanced materials producer achieved 13% on a PPA review across 3.7 MW and 20.9 GWh at 5 sites. A multi-site industrial user identified 15% on a savings benchmark across 6 MW and roughly 32 GWh at 3 sites. Each baseline was built from bills and interval data.
Typical billing-cycle load factor across these engagements is near 84%. The 15% figure is identified rather than achieved. Client names are withheld and verification contacts are available during qualified evaluation. Results vary by facility, and MEP does not guarantee savings.
