Energy Issues

Energy is no longer simply a utility expense. It is a strategic business issue.

Managing today’s energy challenges is more complex, volatile, and consequential than ever before. Businesses, associations, chambers, and their members must now navigate increasingly difficult petroleum, electricity, and natural gas markets while identifying real opportunities to improve energy efficiency, reduce energy costs, and strengthen profitability.

That is where IAPG can help.

IAPG brings more than thirty years of experience in state, national, and international energy markets. Gene Guilford has led two major energy trade associations for more than twenty years, testified before state and federal legislative and regulatory bodies on critical energy issues, and served as a leading spokesperson before local, state, regional, and national media. That experience gives IAPG a practical, tested, and highly informed understanding of how energy markets work—and how businesses can use that knowledge to their advantage.

We help businesses improve the way they buy energy, evaluate energy supply options, identify cost-saving opportunities, and enhance the energy efficiency of their operations. By buying energy more intelligently and using less of it, businesses can increase profitability, reduce waste, lower their carbon footprint, and make stronger, more disciplined energy decisions.

For associations and chambers, IAPG can also help develop energy supply affinity programs that deliver meaningful value to members by lowering their energy costs while creating a new and sustainable source of non-dues revenue for the organization.

In today’s market, energy strategy is business strategy. IAPG helps organizations, members, and clients turn energy complexity into competitive advantage.
