Energy Demand Management Services
Extract value from every opportunity
Realizing maximum value, savings, and sustainability from your corporate energy management program requires a coordinated effort of both reducing energy usage and managing consumption. These are tall orders for any organization.
At Pace Global, we're here to guide and manage your energy demand side management program. From demand response and energy efficiency projects, to peak-reduction and load-shifting, we bring the experience, systems, and implementation capability to identify good opportunities and turn them into valuable savings.
What we offer:
- Energy efficiency audits and targeted project assessments
- Expert clean energy technology assessments and renewable energy credit (REC) strategies
- Tailored demand response and load management programs
- Cogeneration project development and business cases
Energy Efficiency Audits
Companies are so often focused on their core business, that significant energy efficiency gains go unnoticed or lack the sustained initiative to be realized.
Our energy efficiency project assessment provides the information and direction necessary to bring energy demand savings to life. Our approach involves a portfolio-wide energy efficiency prioritization process that ranks the major operating locations and identifies where the highest value energy efficiency and carbon management opportunities are likely to exist. This effort leverages energy consumption and cost information collected and made visible through ECM HubSM. With this initial prioritization established, we tailor an energy efficiency assessment program that matches your business objectives.
Importantly, our targeted assessment approach, combined with our integrated systems, allows for the dissemination of best practices across the organization resulting in greater return on investment.
Clean Energy Technology Assessments
Leading companies worldwide increasingly recognize the importance of clean and renewable energy and carbon management projects. These companies actively seek opportunities to evaluate and implement cost effective and commercially viable projects to support their corporate sustainability commitments.
Leverage the technical, commercial and regulatory experience of our renewable energy demand management experts to quickly build the business case for your renewable energy projects and drive implementation forward.
Our difference stems from several important factors:
- Deep experience across an expansive client portfolio and with a variety of mainstream and nuanced clean energy technologies, including wind, solar, biomass, hydro, biofuels, agriwaste digestion, compressed natural gas, and others.
- A unique ability to assess and determine the commercial and technical feasibility of any emerging technology implementation.
- A pragmatic business discipline that ensures your valuable time and resources are not wasted on technologies or ideas that exceed your risk appetite.
Our team can also support your renewable energy sourcing objectives structuring requests and then go-to-market strategy for renewable energy credits (RECs) and other environmental attributes that align with your business, sustainability and demand management goals.
Demand Response & Load Management
Smart demand response programs require strategic decisions around complex operational trade-offs and market based curtailment mechanisms. Our experts have helped countless clients navigate these complexities and capture value. Our experience in demand response evaluations covers a complete range of alternatives, from onsite generation to flexible load curtailment.
Tailored to your organization's unique energy consumption patterns and requirements, the demand management programs we create are responsive to changing demand response program opportunities, market price signals and are grounded in unbiased advice.
Cogeneration Project Development
Cogeneration remains among the best potential sources of energy savings, supply security, and improved environmental performance. Yet, while many clients recognize cogeneration as a viable option they are uncertain of how to pursue it in the most commercially advantageous manner. We can frame the business case for cogeneration very quickly and lay out the implementation paths (self-build, third party developer, public-private partnership, shared infrastructure) that fit your business objectives and capital availability. Throughout our history, clients have relied on our leadership in advising, analyzing, and implementing cogeneration energy demand management projects and solutions.
Metals and Mining Efficiency Assessments
Energy costs form a significant portion of a mining operation’s costs and controlling them has a significant impact on operation’s competitive position. Energy reliability is also receiving renewed focus amid system shortages in many parts of the world.
Pace Global has a team of engineers that specialize in mining and metals processing operations that serve our client base, ranging from global leaders to niche or regional players. They have a focused and structured approach to base-lining energy consumption, benchmarking energy intensity, and evaluating no-cost and low-cost energy conservation measures that do not sacrifice operational effectiveness. This team has performed efficiency assessments at more than 40 operations around the world and has identified over $100 million in client-approved energy conservation measures over the last few years.
Additionally, renewable generation options assessment is a core component of our standard site assessment. We include operational and economic feasibility assessments of applicable renewable generation technologies into our site assessments and have found that distributed scale solar and wind projects do offer savings opportunities for operations in remote locations and/or with unreliable grid-based supply.
