Energy Bill AnalysisEnergy Bill Analysis
Essential component of any energy management program
Continuing account of energy use and cost
Keeping up-to-date records of monthly energy consumption and associated costs
A separate record will be required for each type of energy used, i.e., gas, electric, oil, etc.energy used, i.e., gas, electric, oil, etc.
A single energy unit should be used to express the heating values of the various fuel sources (MMBtu)
If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it!

Usually calculated in 15 or 30-minute intervalsPeak Demand = Greatest value in any 15 or 30-

Natural Gas ServiceNatural Gas Service
Natural Gas Charges typically have two components on the bill:components on the bill:
Supply – The purchase cost for the physical t l li d b th tilit (l lnatural gas supplied by the utility (local
distribution company).
Distribution/Transportation The cost toDistribution/Transportation – The cost to deliver the physical natural gas through the utility’s distribution system to the customer.

Billing & Rate StructureBilling & Rate Structure
Rate Analysis (“Tabletop” Assessment) Utility companies classify electric and natural gas service according to Rate types
• Potential Rate Examples: Residential; General Service; Commercial; Industrial
Riders modify the structure of a Rate and based upon specific qualifications of the customer
• Potential Rider Examples: Interruptible; HLF (High Load Factor);TOD (Time-of-Day); Green Energy
T iff R t & RidTariff Rates & Riders:• State Public Service Commission Websites• Utility Website

Clauses:C t t D d i i thl billiContract Demand – minimum monthly billing demand and excess demand charge
D d R t h t billi h i th tDemand Ratchet – billing mechanism that selects the highest demand from the current month or previous month(s)p ( )
• Sometimes a percentage of the highest demand recorded in the previous 11 months is used.

Billing & Rate StructureBilling & Rate Structure
Clauses (continued):Minimum Energy Charge – typically basedMinimum Energy Charge typically based upon a contract demand.
• Ex. Contract Demand 500 kW x 400 Hours = 200,000 kWhkWh
• 200,000 kWh x Energy Price (~$0.06 kWh) = $12,000
Time of DayTime of Day• Establishes a daily time period in which the peak
demand is measuredC l b d t t bli h k d k• Can also be used to establish peak and non-peak energy usage charge (Time of Use)

Baseline – Initial collection of data which serves as a basis for comparison with subsequently acquired data
Benchmarking – Measurement and comparison of the facility’s own energycomparison of the facility s own energy use over time (internal) or a comparison to similar facilities outside the organization (external)
