Truck parts manufacturer gets a lift from ECNG’s experience and LIBERATOR™
Background: Cascade employs 200 people in their 100,000 sq.ft. Canadian plant where they form steel for fork-lift truck parts. Alarmed by fluctuating electricity prices they were considering locking into a fixed price contract.
Problem: Cascade quickly realized that a fixed price contract would cure their fluctuations but at a whopping price that was sometimes close to 20% above the going market rates.
Solution: A detailed energy cost audit was carried out by ECNG. Our engineers applied their experience with similar industries and using LIBERATOR they came up with an energy buying package for Cascade. This package cut the cost of Cascade’s electricity bills and smoothed their cash flow.
Even for this medium sized manufacturer, important savings were realized very quickly over a fixed price electricity contract.
