Case Study: Gull Valley Greenhouses Saves $100K with 360 Energy

How Strategic Energy Management Saved Gull Valley Greenhouses $100K

Gull Valley Greenhouses, a family-operated vegetable grower in Alberta, faced the challenge of managing its energy costs amidst the province's volatile and high power prices. To maintain its year-round operations, the company needed to escape a disadvantageous energy contract and find a more strategic way to procure power. They engaged 360 Energy for expert energy management advice.

By partnering with 360 Energy, Gull Valley executed a strategic exit from its old contract and deployed a combined approach of market pricing and hedging. 360 Energy also identified and recovered billing errors from the supplier. This solution led to over $100,000 in cost avoidance, a 10% reduction in total electricity costs, and the achievement of paying nearly 50% less than the market price for power.
