This program will start with a high level review of the PJM grid followed by how local gas and electric utilities bill their clients. We will explore the many utility invoice line items that are often ignored and explain how alternative energy solutions impact these fee structures both positively and negatively. Examples and case studies will be presented showing both favorable and detrimental scenarios based on the type of utility invoicing. The goal of this program is to educate the audience on how alternative energy projects can affect your “bottom line” allowing for improved decision making.

Three parts to the program:

1. Bills and understanding with utilities and where you fit in the grid

2. Right-sizing who you are and the line items of your bill

3. Do you have the smallest footprint that you can? Rightsizing your company.

4. Energy management and where do you fit? Where are your holes?
