Risk-Management
Flexible & Dynamic
Quantify
Plan
Draft energy purchasing strategy based on risk-profile
Track
Scan the markets for entry triggers based on agreed plan
Entry
Buy energy at market through the supplier for the agreed periods of delivery
Monitor
Provide weekly position reporting of hedged positions and identify any future opportunities to secure value
Buying at wholesale (as opposed to retail fixed contracts), can achieve significant savings and lead to contracts that reflect the reality of prevailing markets – something not available to buyers when they accede to traditional fixed supplier packages.
ICD guides our clients through the process of establishing their risk-profile, identifying opportunities to secure value and ultimately locking-in prices for periods of delivery out as far as the end of the pricing curve (5 years into the future, should this be your preference).
Prior to clients agreeing to a wholesale pricing solution, ICD provide a detailed plan comprising:
- Details of preferred suppliers
- Client risk tolerance
- Buying signals
- Entry process
- Monitoring samples
Collaboration is the key to a successful wholesale purchasing strategy.
ICD optimise our client’s procurement performance, whilst delivering an auditable and balanced energy risk management approach that meets with the demands of standard internal governance processes.
