Proprietary Demand Response Shaping Retail to take Advantage of Wholesale
Index Mitigation and Long Position Creation
Proprietary Demand Response The following green and yellow “blocks” above represent the wholesale allocations associated with a daily load profile of a University. Wholesale markets transact in whole megawatts of power in amounts of 7x24 (first number days; second number hours), 5x16, 7x8 and 2x16. If you are on a fixed price product, the retail energy provider buys these blocks for both your load as well as their entire portfolio. You can also buy these blocks on your own in a take-or-pay product. The gray area above shows either what is not hedged, or what reductions can be made to create the long position for the supplier. By implementing the strategy above, we create a voluntary program that you control. Decisions are made based upon specific monetary decisions. Because the program is not ISO based, you cannot be penalized or removed for underperformance or otherwise incorrectly participating. Additionally, there are no base-lines that have to be proven to a third-party, rather we show the hedged load versus the curtailed load and settle based on index prices. You receive 100 percent of the reduction in consumption as a further cost reduction. In order to best determine options for curtailments, our team will meet with the applicable facility management staffs and do due diligence on how the systems and infrastructure integrate. Then round-table with your staff to discuss the options we have found and more importantly which options we may have missed. Opposed to other companies in the demand response space, we know that your team understands your assets better than we do as well as what they can and cannot afford. We encourage their input every step of the way.

Index Mitigation
Curtail at high index prices and receive share of transparent value Creates value that is a multiple of capacity option payments Customized to customer ability to curtail and to turn retail product into wholesale value
Unified Energy Services Proprietary Demand Response • Voluntary economic demand response program embedded into the commodity procurement agreement • Day ahead notice, *No penalties or time limitations* No obligations to curtail
• Shared compensation programs that work to create long positions for REPs
• Much larger returns than restrictive ISO Programs • Take advantage of the commodity markets when prudent for BAIN, not just for the grid Depending on the selected retail energy provider and the contract put into place, we will create a voluntary program where defined curtailment amounts create transparent, market based compensation back to Bain. Effectively, we create a no-risk long position for the retail energy provider that can be sold back into the index market. The following is a diagram of what we are proposing:
Yellow: Index prices Blue: Hedged load from LSE* Green: New consumption line Gray: Value from selling into Index * Load Scheduling Entity
