We are Conductors of Possible.
As an industry leader with more than two decades of experience providing energy management solutions, we build partnerships with our clients through transparency and reliability with superior counsel and advising.
Every customer has unique goals and challenges. With that in mind, we customize our services and teams to increase customer revenue, lower expenses, manage risks, and achieve your specific business goals. We manage the power so you can focus on what you do best.
When it comes to energy management, you want a partner you know you can rely on. Our team works around the clock to evaluate potential risks and opportunities, tracking every variable that could impact the market. As the largest load customer in the Southwest Power Pool (SPP), we have a vested interest in market changes because it impacts our internal customers at Evergy, as well as our clients.
We’re a regional transmission organization (RTO) market participant and agent in the Southwest Power Pool (SPP). The time we invest participating in SPP committees and market meetings benefits not only us, but our clients as well. Our team has a strong industry presence, staying up to date with the latest information. We turn industry trends and data into actionable insights.
By partnering with us, you gain access to our team’s extensive experience and knowledge, as well as our 24/7 monitoring of market trends and insights. We forecast energy demand every 5 minutes, allowing us to purchase in real-time and obtain rates lower than day-ahead offerings. Our team turns market tracking into optimizations.
We strive to provide our clients with the best possible price at any point in time. We utilize gas scheduling, obtaining bids from multiple gas suppliers and bringing them back to you to review together. This approach prioritizes transparency and communication to provide you the best possible contract.
As part of Southwest Power Pool (SPP) requirements, all power suppliers must meter generation and load. We manage these communications with SPP for our clients through our SCADA system, providing signals every second on meter activity to ensure compliance.
As the energy marketing division of investor-owned utility Evergy, we have a long-standing reputation for best-in-class energy management solutions. We understand the complexity of energy management and can provide a unique level of consulting that other non-utility competitors can’t match. Our team’s energy turns a century of experience into your advantage.
Our people truly make the difference. We pride ourselves on our team’s tenure and experience, which allows us to build strong, lasting relationships with our clients — ultimately providing a higher level of service and partnership. We bring the power to turn any energy obstacle into an opportunity.
