New Opportunities for Power Cost Savings

Electric industry deregulation creates substantial new opportunities for electricity users to reduce power costs and enhance their relative competitive position. Opportunities exist in acquisition of competitive power supplies, trading of financial instruments, and the shifting of consumption patterns through engineering and operational changes. The successful capture of these opportunities requires a combination of market intelligence and an understanding of end user power consumption patterns and the sources of variation in those patterns.
