If your organization has significant utility expenses, billing errors, incorrect rates, overcharges, or other issues may be increasing your costs. Organizations spending approximately $50,000 or more per month may be especially good candidates for review.
Uncle Dan Consulting connects qualifying organizations with specialists who review utility expenses, identify potential recovery opportunities, and evaluate ways to reduce future costs.
Your organization needs electricity, water, and other essential services. But are the charges accurate—and are the rates and classifications appropriate for your operations?
A commercial utility bill audit can help answer those questions.
The review generally begins with approximately 12 months of current bills. Specialists may examine historical billing when appropriate to evaluate potential overcharges and recovery opportunities.
Depending on your organization and the available review program, specialists may examine:
The review looks for billing discrepancies, incorrect rates or classifications, unnecessary recurring charges, and opportunities to recover money or reduce expenses.
Review current bills and how your organization is being charged.
Determine whether documented billing issues may support a refund, credit, or other adjustment.
Explore appropriate rates, billing arrangements, and other cost-reduction opportunities.
For qualifying facilities, specialists may also evaluate Virtual Power Plants and other energy strategies after understanding your usage, location, and operational requirements.
This review may be especially relevant for organizations with significant utility expenses—particularly those spending approximately $50,000 or more per month—including:
Spending level alone does not determine eligibility. Specialists review your organization’s circumstances.
Results depend on your billing history, utility providers, location, rates, usage, documentation, and available solutions.
Some reviews may identify recoverable charges or ongoing savings. Others may confirm that existing billing is appropriate.
Refunds and savings are not guaranteed. Any recommendations should be based on your organization’s actual bills and circumstances.
It is a review of utility bills and related information to identify potential billing errors, overcharges, inappropriate rates or classifications, and cost-reduction opportunities.
The initial review generally starts with approximately 12 months of current utility bills. Specialists will explain any additional information needed.
Potential recovery depends on the issue, supporting records, applicable requirements, and the utility provider’s processes. Specialists determine whether historical billing should be reviewed.
The first step is reviewing your bills. Any proposed operational, equipment, or provider changes should be explained separately before your organization decides whether to proceed.
They are a possible later-stage strategy for qualifying facilities. The initial focus is understanding your utility expenses and identifying potential billing and recovery opportunities.
Ask Uncle Dan about the review process and applicable terms. Any fees, obligations, or recovery arrangements should be explained before you authorize work.
