Without the Premium Price. When it comes to procuring energy for your facility, you want to purchase just the right amount at the best possible price. Fixed price contracts are predictable but come at a premium price. Purchasing on the spot market introduces considerable price uncertainty and budget unpredictability. In addition, you need information for ongoing assessment and management of your budget risk. You need to produce accurate budgets, compare projected consumption to budget, and take appropriate action to bridge the supply gap. Unfortunately, there is a general lack of information available for these tasks. While it can be produced manually, this activity is not practical for most energy managers.ReportingReports are provided by your Blackstone Energy Advisor, both routinely and on-demand, in response to real-world events such as changing prices and unexpected fluctuations in facility demand.Hedging Portfolio Performance Report Access tabular and chart views of your hedging portfolio performance.
