This is where a broker earns out. Our PJM supplier relationships let us negotiate contract negotiation terms around this exact hospitality constraint.
In PJM, a variable based on occupancy and season load is priced very differently from a flat one — and that gap is exactly what contract negotiation captures. We structure your Ohio hospitality contract around the curve, not a headline rate.
Energy is rarely the headline cost for hospitality businesses in Ohio, but in the PJM market it is one of the most controllable. A variable based on occupancy and season load of about 200,000-700,000 kWh/month gives a skilled broker room to restructure how — and when — you buy power, and contract negotiation is where that work happens.
Our contract negotiation approach for Ohio hospitality clients starts with your actual interval data, not a generic rate sheet. We model the variable based on occupancy and season curve, then put that load in front of vetted PJM suppliers so they compete on the terms that matter for hotels, resorts, restaurants, event venues, entertainment centers — not just the headline price.
Where most hospitality buyers in Ohio sign whatever renewal lands on the desk, we run a structured contract negotiation bid: multiple PJM suppliers, apples-to-apples terms, and a recommendation tied to how your variable based on occupancy and season load actually behaves month to month.
Because the PJM market settles hospitality load against real-time conditions, timing your contract negotiation around seasonal peaks can matter as much as the rate itself.

We model both against your 200,000-700,000 kWh/month before recommending one.
