Energy Profiles Limited (EPL) advises key clients on energy purchasing. We are not affiliated with any energy suppliers and we operate purely on a consulting basis, working to assist our clients in making prudent hedging decisions.

EPL has advised clients on electricity contracts representing more than $200M since markets opened in Ontario and Alberta.

However, we do not simply help you ‘get into a power contract’. It is worth noting that in the same period, EPL has also counselled clients not to enter into power contracts for portfolios representing more than $250M in annual costs.

The decision to hedge is an important one, requiring rational and objective analysis in addition to a detailed understanding of the energy markets that impact your portfolio. The first step is to confirm the purchasing strategy. Our approach is to assist in the decision-making process by preparing detailed projections of net costs using hourly data for different market price scenarios

If the refreshed purchasing is confirmed to include a hedging component, EPL would commence discussions with potential suppliers to establish prices and terms, and to negotiate custom offerings to suit your needs. With an established base of sizable 'portfolio' clients, Energy Profiles Limited has the credibility to command the attention of major electricity suppliers. Where appropriate, EPL would conduct formal or informal Request for Pricing processes, provide support to the contract legal review process and coordinate communications with suppliers.

Following your selection of a supplier, we oversee contract execution and provide 'down to the penny' bill verification and allocation services as part of ongoing energy accounting services.
