Load curtailment programs that pay you to reduce usage during peak periods
With Medium-High energy intensity and typical usage of 200,000-800,000 kWh/month, technology facilities require specialized procurement strategies.
Our California team treats this as a procurement problem, not a utility one — demand response programs structured to your extended hours with always-on equipment profile takes it off the table.
We solve this through demand response programs: matching your extended hours with always-on equipment usage to CAISO contract structures that absorb the cost instead of passing it through to you.
For technology operators in California, this is rarely fixable by switching suppliers alone; our demand response programs approach reshapes the contract terms behind it.
This is where a broker earns out. Our CAISO supplier relationships let us negotiate demand response programs terms around this exact technology constraint.

Technology facilities in California run on a extended hours with always-on equipment pattern that the CAISO market prices aggressively. At 200,000-800,000 kWh/month, a fraction of a cent per kWh compounds into real money, which is why technology owners across California treat demand response programs as a financial decision, not a utility errand.
