Fair Commercial Power & Gas Procurement
Level the playing field against energy suppliers. Eliminate opaque margin spreads, hidden administrative surcharges, and unfavorable rollover clauses with independent market negotiation.
100% Transparency
Independent procurement advisors do not accept undisclosed kickbacks or commission shares from utilities. Every fee is disclosed upfront.
Collective Purchasing Power
Aggregating power and gas volume across hundreds of commercial facilities allows smaller enterprises to command wholesale trading spreads reserved for conglomerates.
Dynamic Market Timing
Continuous tracking of forward spark spreads, calendar contracts, and intraday spot movements ensures forward hedges are locked at cyclical market lows.
The Hidden Cost of Passive Energy Contracts
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the most vulnerable participants in the energy market. Unlike industrial conglomerates with in-house trading desks, most businesses sign standard supplier contracts or trust commission-based brokers who route business to the utility offering the highest broker fee.
As a result, Danish and European businesses regularly overpay by 14% to 28% on the supplier-controlled margin component of their electricity and natural gas bills. When contracts automatically renew, suppliers quietly inflate trading fees, imbalance surcharges, and monthly meter subscription fees.

Commercial Procurement FAQ
Key insights into commercial power tariffs, utility accruals, CSRD compliance, and energy audits.
A fixed-price contract locks in a guaranteed rate per kWh for a set period, providing budget certainty at the cost of substantial risk premiums charged by energy suppliers. Spot-indexed purchasing passes through hourly wholesale market prices plus a supplier margin. While spot purchasing delivers lower long-term average costs, it exposes businesses to price spikes unless managed through portfolio hedging, time-of-use load shifting, or professional procurement advisory like Energi Team.
