Energy contracts for warehouses
Warehouses and distribution centres run large, controllable loads — high-bay lighting, HVAC, dock equipment and a fast-growing fleet of electric forklifts and trucks. That combination makes them ideal candidates for a contract engineered around load shape, not a default rate.
Your load profile
Warehouses typically have a moderate, steady base load with predictable daytime peaks — a profile that responds well to fixed or blended contracts and to demand-charge management as EV charging is added.
Typical usage: 20,000–50,000 kWh/month per facility.
Cost pressures for warehouses
Rising demand from EV & material-handling charging
Adding forklift and truck charging can spike peak demand and push you into higher demand-charge brackets if the load isn't staggered.
Large lit & conditioned floorplates
High-bay lighting and HVAC across hundreds of thousands of square feet make the commodity portion of the bill big enough to be worth repricing.
Multiple DCs on different rates
Operators with several buildings often carry a patchwork of contracts and default rates instead of one aggregated agreement.
Our approach
Load-shaped fixed or blended pricing
We price to your actual consumption curve and lock the commodity rate that drives most of your controllable spend.
Demand-charge & EV-readiness review
We model how charging infrastructure changes your peak kW and recommend staggering and rate strategies before you overpay.
Portfolio aggregation
Roll every DC onto one contract and one consolidated bill with pricing that reflects your total volume.
Frequently asked
Do you handle refrigerated warehouses?
Yes — refrigerated and cold-chain facilities have a higher, flatter load (a strong load factor) and often see the clearest savings.
We're electrifying our forklift fleet — can you help?
We model the new peak demand and recommend charging schedules plus a contract structure so electrification doesn't blow up your demand charges.
