Clearspring Energy Advisors is uniquely qualified to prepare cost-of-service studies and pricing strategies for your utility that recognize the realities of competition, fairness and cost recovery.  

As operating costs, wholesale energy prices and customers change, Clearspring provides the insight, experience and technical resources necessary to develop competitive rate structures acceptable to both regulators and customers.  Our services include:  

• Wholesale and retail cost-of-service studies

• Unbundling studies

• Rate design and tariff preparation

• Expert witness testimony and regulatory support

• Purchased power, fuel and natural gas pricing analyses

• On-and off-peak pricing, load control rates and special contracts for key customers

• Financial analysis and planning 

• Line extension and other policies 

Clearspring Energy Advisors’ staff has the depth and extensive experience required to help your utility develop new competitive rate options that will allow your utility to achieve its financial objectives. One of our key advantages is our ability to comfortably work with AMI “big data” that is now available at many utilities.  For example, we can determine the bill impacts for individual consumers for a new demand rate or TOU rate.  We can use your AMI data to develop rate class load shapes that will make the cost allocations between rate groups more accurate, defensible, and customized. 

Let Clearspring Energy Advisors provide your utility with expert pricing and financial analysis…cost-effectively without adding permanent staff.
