The 10 questions below may provide some insight as you determine if the PowerGas Energy Information Suite is the right fit for your organization:
The Energy Information Suite (EIS) can be a powerful tool for many organizations trying to handle energy utilization. This suite combines an organization’s utility bills and consumption data into one central location at the enterprise level. This capability makes it easy to access all information of interest in one place and offers a comprehensive look at energy consumption. Beyond serving as an organization system, our EIS allows organizations to access data, including historical information, immediately.
EIS can make it happen through the benchmarking tool. The ability to compare weather-normalized energy usage per square foot becomes possible with our EIS. In addition, you gain the option to accurately rank facilities by their energy usage or make year-over-year comparisons. With this information, imagine what you can do.
PowerGas can provide an Annual Energy Summary that does just that. With this custom report you can review energy usage and compare year-over-year while isolating the weather variable.
EIS can track anything that has an invoice from regulated to deregulated commodity types. With the ability to handle a variety of utilities, our comprehensive suite can track these components:
EIS can handle various utility types, including electricity, water, waste, and natural gas. Our EIS solution can track limitless facilities and accounts. The PowerGas EIS can also audit and provide tariff verification to establish integrity in the calculated costs and the rates incurred for utility-based invoices or third-party contracting.
With the EIS portal, you can track all facilities in one easy-to-access place. Add to that convenience the ability to group facilities by state, region, utility provider, operational variance, giving you the power to group facilities that act similarly.
PowerGas Corporation established a greenhouse gas (GHG) reporting methodology around the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager. This was designed to be consistent with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol developed by the World Resources Institute and World Business Council for Sustainable Development. PowerGas also works with The Climate Registry.
The PowerGas Corporation EIS Business Metrics Report has that ability. This feature allows users to determine the amount of energy used per business metric, like, for example, the amount of energy used per dollar of sales revenue. This capability gives organizations the metrics they need to make smart, effective decisions moving forward.
Our EIS provides continuous energy accounting across an organization’s entire building portfolio. With this tool, PowerGas can lessen the burden associated with disclosure or other auditing requirements that are recurring. The practice of evaluating the relative energy efficiency of a building is known as “rating,” and the sharing of such information with consumers is called “disclosure.” Both are simplified with the PowerGas EIS system.
ENERGY STAR is an annual certification that requires access to actual metered data. With our EIS system, the data acquisition process is less cumbersome, even for multi-facility portfolios.
Our EIS can reduce the time required to build utility budgets. If you welcome the opportunity to conquer this task in days rather than weeks, EIS may be the solution. Using EIS, organizations can seamlessly develop allocations for any commodity the system is tracking.

PowerGas Solutions (PGS) uses a variety of approaches in securing long-term and cost-effective procurement of energy supply. It is important to note that the lowest commodity cost may, in fact, not be the lowest cost solution. It represents only one measure of overall cost savings and efficiency.
This component of our work involves energy solutions for facilities seeking combined heat and power (CHP) coupled with renewable resources such as solar, battery, and wind—integrating primary “off-grid” alternatives for sourcing electricity, heat, and cooling. We Build, Own, Operate, Maintain (BOOM), and may provide 100% financing for projects greater than 5 MW with qualified counterparties and smaller projects may qualify for 100% financing dependent on certain criteria.
PowerGas Corporation partners with Seguro Energy Development LLC and its strategic alliance partners Caterpillar Global Energy Solutions and Solar Turbines (a Caterpillar Company). PowerGas Corporation also has an integrated business relationship with Aquilavision.

PowerGas Corporation is dedicated to building partnerships with various companies in the energy world to provide enhanced services and solutions to our clients. Our clients can be assured that they are gaining access to world-class, on-site energy reliability—at a price generally better than the utility.
Our alliance with Seguro Energy Development LLC allows us to provide clients with access to the best on-site Combined Heath Power (CHP) and Microgrid energy solutions.
Combined Heat and Power (CHP) is a clean approach to generating electric power and useful thermal energy from a single fuel source—thus making it highly efficient. CHP allows a facility to eliminate the need to purchase electricity from the distribution grid and separately burn fuel in an on-site furnace or boil for thermal energy. With CHP, a facility can use heat and power to provide both services in a single, energy-efficient step.
Per the Department of Energy (DOE), CHP is a clean energy solution that directly addresses several national priorities and it includes improving the competitiveness of the United States. In March of 2016, the DOE issued a statement that Combined Heat and Power achieves this by:
A microgrid is a localized group of electricity sources and loads connected to and synchronized with the traditional wide area synchronous grid (macro grid). Microgrids can also operate in an “island mode”—functioning independently as physical or economic conditions dictate.
Micro grids can effectively integrate various sources of distributed generation (DG). It is especially true for renewable energy sources (RES). Micro grids can also supply emergency power and enable the transition between the island and connected macro grid modes.
When it comes to executing the offerings and strategies discussed above, PowerGas Corporation relies on the resources of our partner Seguro Energy Development LLC. Using their management team, equipment partners, and their vast array of experience, our power project strategies focus on large-scale commercial/industrial/governmental projects that seek CHP applications and micro grid solutions.
