Understanding the Energy Equation:

Supply- and demand-side energy management

o It’s important to keep in mind that procuring energy intelligently, with an understanding of short- and long-term market movement is only half the equation.

o Saving energy—reducing usage and managing your demand—is equally important.

o Smart energy management is also about a smart strategy that coordinates both the supply and demand side of your energy portfolio—your energy purchases and your energy efficiency efforts.

o Do you buy energy from one vendor and manage your demand with another? If so, your energy management may be fragmented, leading to cross purposes and missed opportunities to better control energy spend.
