Warehouse & Logistics Energy Management in the Central Valley
Warehouse & Logistics facilities in the Central Valley run a 24/7 operations with shift-based peaks load of roughly 400,000-1,500,000 kWh/month on PG&E service. We put that load in front of vetted suppliers and engineer the contract around how you actually use power.
Warehouse & Logistics Load in Central Valley
The Central Valley runs on pumping. Agricultural load here is violently seasonal — near-zero in winter, enormous through the irrigation season — and PG&E maintains dedicated agricultural schedules precisely because a general commercial rate prices that shape badly. The mistake we see most often is a processing facility or packing house sitting on a general commercial schedule when an agricultural one fits, or the reverse after a facility diversified. Add the summer on-peak window, which collides directly with afternoon pumping and cold storage pull-down, and the demand component becomes the largest controllable line on a valley bill.
Warehouse & Logistics is one of the sectors that over-indexes in this territory — irrigated agriculture, food processing, oil production and inland distribution make up the bulk of commercial load here, so suppliers already understand the shape and price it competitively when it is presented properly. A 24/7 operations with shift-based peaks profile at 400,000-1,500,000 kWh/month is the specific thing we take to market, and the contract structure follows from it: fixed, indexed, or block-and-index, sized to your actual baseload rather than to a nameplate figure.
Where Warehouse & Logistics Load Sits on PG&E
At 400,000-1,500,000 kWh/month, most warehouse & logistics sites are demand-metered — which means the schedule, not just the rate, drives the bill.
| Schedule | Typically covers |
|---|---|
| B-10 | medium commercial accounts |
| B-19 | large commercial accounts |
| AG-C / AG-B | agricultural pumping and processing accounts |
| B-20 | very large industrial load |
Schedule names, demand thresholds and eligibility rules change with each rate case, and the schedule an account was originally placed on is frequently no longer the one that fits it. We verify yours against the actual bill rather than assuming — that check is free, and it is where a meaningful share of the savings on this page comes from.
