Our energy risk management approach for California property management clients starts with your actual interval data, not a generic rate sheet. We model the business hours peak for commercial, evening for residential curve, then put that load in front of vetted CAISO suppliers so they compete on the terms that matter for office buildings, apartment complexes, mixed-use properties, commercial real estate — not just the headline price.
Where most property management buyers in California sign whatever renewal lands on the desk, we run a structured energy risk management bid: multiple CAISO suppliers, apples-to-apples terms, and a recommendation tied to how your business hours peak for commercial, evening for residential load actually behaves month to month.
