You're Overpaying 5–15% Right Now
Billing errors, wrong tariff classifications, demand ratchet charges, and missed TOU opportunities are common — and costly. Emergent's utility bill audit identifies overcharges and recovers refunds with no upfront cost.
The Hidden Cost Problem
Most commercial and industrial facilities are overpaying on their utility bills by 5–15% due to billing errors, incorrect rate classifications, demand ratchet charges, and missed time-of-use opportunities. These overcharges compound month over month — and utilities won't flag them for you.
What We Audit
Our forensic utility bill audit covers every line item across 12+ months of billing history. No upfront cost — we recover money you're already owed.
Tariff Reclassification
Large commercial accounts often qualify for lower-cost rate classes but are never migrated. We identify and apply for rate reclassification to reduce your per-kWh cost immediately.
Demand Ratchet Charges
Many utilities bill based on peak demand from prior months. We identify demand spikes and develop strategies to reduce ratchet exposure — often saving 10–20% on demand charges alone.
Estimated Read Disputes
Billing on estimated reads instead of actual consumption is more common than you'd think. We audit 12+ months of bills to identify and dispute discrepancies, recovering overcharges with refunds.
Time-of-Use Optimization
Time-of-use rate structures can be exploited through load shifting. We identify shift opportunities and model savings — often reducing peak-period charges by repositioning flexible loads to off-peak windows.
