The Right Procurement Strategy Depends on Your Objectives—Not a Single View of the Market

Fixed Price

Lock in electricity pricing for a defined term to provide greater cost certainty and protection from market volatility.

Fix a portion of anticipated usage while allowing the remainder to float with market conditions, balancing price protection with market opportunity.

Execute purchases over time rather than committing all volumes at a single market point, reducing timing risk and creating a more disciplined procurement approach.

Maintain exposure to wholesale market pricing while using ongoing market intelligence and risk management strategies to identify and respond to market opportunities.
