"Now’s the perfect time to get smarter about when you secure your electricity & gas pricing"
Remove the ongoing headache of energy renewals.
Very large organisations have the luxury of inhouse energy specialists and sophisticated procurement functions. Most other organisations require extremely busy executives to handle this complex category of spend which is very challenging.
If you want to get smart about it, then our Masterclass is for you.
HOW THIS MASTERCLASS WILL HELP YOU
If you're a decision maker, or responsible for your organisation’s electricity and gas spend, you'll know how challenging it can be to manage this area of cost and risk, even at the best of times.
That’s why we’ve developed an online Energy Procurement Masterclass - to help you learn the smart strategies you need to procure your pricing like a pro.
BREAKDOWN & MINIMISE YOUR ENERGY PRICE
Gain a deeper understanding of the components of cost with particular focus on how to minimise the largest part of your electricity & gas price.
DEVELOP A SMARTER STRATEGY
Inform your thinking on future strategy development and how to position your organisation to capitalise on any given prevailing market conditions.
FIND OUT THE BEST AND WORST STRATEGIES
We review the best to worst energy procurement strategies and expose common approaches that are very high risk as well as some much ‘smarter’ options.
AN INSIDE LOOK AT PRO ENERGY PROCUREMENT
We look at the high-end approaches that very large energy consumers use to manage risks and costs and how this can help inform your smart strategy.
HOW TO REDUCE YOUR ENERGY BILLS FURTHER
Tips on tackling costs you may think are unaddressable such as the rising ‘non-commodity costs’ and how to optimise your wholesale price for cost reduction.
SAVE TIME & VALUABLE RESOURCES
We outline our smart approach, how it can help you rationalise, gain economies of scale and alleviate the headache associated with your energy renewal and increasing prices.
RISK-MANAGEMENT OF WHOLESALE PRICES
Learn about the volatile commodity markets and how if you buy at the right times, between renewal dates, you can reduce your bills by as much as 25% or more.
BEST PRACTICE GUIDANCE AND PRINCIPLES
