Utility bill audits for food and protein processors
Refrigeration, cooking and sanitation run long hours with high summer peaks, so seasonal rates, demand charges and rate class matter more here than almost anywhere else.
Where processors overpay
- Summer rates applied before the tariff allows.
- Demand peaks and ratchets from compressors and start-ups.
- Rate classes that predate expansions.
- Corporate classification errors on processing accounts.
A processing plant result
An 800,000-square-foot Missouri protein plant was billed summer rates about five weeks early in 2020 and again in 2019. Its internal review had found nothing. The audit recovered $166,957.55.
