Technology Energy Management in the Greater Boston
Technology facilities in the Greater Boston run a extended hours with always-on equipment load of roughly 200,000-800,000 kWh/month on Eversource service. We put that load in front of vetted suppliers and engineer the contract around how you actually use power.
Technology Load in Greater Boston
NEMA — Northeast Massachusetts and Boston — is the constrained pocket of ISO-New England, and it prices accordingly. Boston and Cambridge carry an extraordinary density of teaching hospitals and laboratory space, load that is continuous, critical and effectively non-curtailable. Two ISO-NE mechanisms dominate cost here and are widely misunderstood: the capacity tag, set by your demand during the single annual system peak hour, and transmission cost allocation, set by your demand during monthly regional peaks. A lab building that manages a handful of hours a year materially reduces both, and that is usually a larger prize than the supply rate.
Technology is one of the sectors that over-indexes in this territory — teaching hospitals, biotech and lab space, universities and dense commercial real estate make up the bulk of commercial load here, so suppliers already understand the shape and price it competitively when it is presented properly. A extended hours with always-on equipment profile at 200,000-800,000 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 Technology Load Sits on Eversource
At 200,000-800,000 kWh/month, most technology sites are demand-metered — which means the schedule, not just the rate, drives the bill.
| Schedule | Typically covers |
|---|---|
| G-1 — General Service | small commercial accounts |
| G-2 — General Service Demand | demand-metered commercial accounts |
| G-3 — Large General Service | large commercial and institutional load |
| B-3 — Primary Service | facilities at primary voltage |
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.
