Electricity vs. Natural Gas
For businesses operating in industries with high energy demands, electricity and natural gas expenses can constitute a significant portion of operational costs. But which utility holds the most hidden savings potential? Let’s explore each to determine where businesses can find the best opportunities for savings.
Electricity Savings Potential
Electricity bills often include demand charges, delivery fees, and other complex charges that can result in overpayment if not properly reviewed. In deregulated states, businesses have the added advantage of shopping for electricity suppliers, which can unlock competitive rates and additional savings. An expert utility bill audit can reveal these hidden opportunities and help businesses switch to more affordable energy plans.
Natural Gas Savings Potential
For many companies, natural gas offers a cost-effective alternative for heating and other energy needs. Like electricity, natural gas bills can contain hidden fees related to distribution, surcharges, and environmental charges. Identifying and correcting these errors can lead to substantial cost savings, especially for businesses with high seasonal usage. Natural gas is also a deregulated commodity and in certain states, businesses can shop for competitive gas supply contracts.
