Utility Cost Assessment
FPPS analyzes electricity billing, contracts, and usage trends to identify the drivers behind rising utility costs. We help districts understand the root causes of increases and uncover opportunities to reduce costs, restructure contracts, and mitigate future financial risk.
Deliverables:
Conduct cost breakdown of utility costs and identify changes in costs of rates, demand, commodity, transmission, and solar impacts
Analyze trends in usage (kWh), demand (kW), time of use (TOU), and annual energy use intensity (kWh/GSF)
Identify opportunities to reduce electricity costs, including but not limited to:
Direct Access contract renegotiation
Comparative cost analysis with alternative energy providers
Operational and energy‑saving strategies such as adjusting schedules to avoid peak periods, evaluating demand response participation, and exploring onsite generation or storage
Developing a comprehensive Final Report summarizing findings, cost drivers, and recommended actions
