## In short

Intrastate and ISTS solar and wind, rooftop solar, storage and green-market purchase — contracted and dispatched together so the landed cost falls, not just the headline tariff. Most industrial renewable procurement is sized against an annual consumption number and a headline ex-bus tariff. Neither is what you pay. Open access charges, banking terms and the fifteen-minute matching of generation to load decide the landed cost — and a portfolio sized without them routinely generates units the plant cannot consume, which are paid for anyway.
## The problem

Most industrial renewable procurement is sized against an annual consumption number and a headline ex-bus tariff. Neither is what you pay. Open access charges, banking terms and the fifteen-minute matching of generation to load decide the landed cost — and a portfolio sized without them routinely generates units the plant cannot consume, which are paid for anyway.

## What we do

- **Plan against metered load.** Bills, load survey, rooftop and captive parameters. Solar, wind, hybrid, BESS and exchange electricity optimised together, capex or opex, with each state's ToD, banking and open access charges in the landed-cost model.
- **Implement the contract.** Open access approvals, connection agreement, scheduling registration and ABT metering at the incomer. The regulatory work is the project; the panels are the easy part.
- **Meter every source.** ABT metering and data loggers on every source and every load, so the position is measured block by block rather than reconciled annually.
- **Orchestrate the mix.** ergOS schedules the portfolio against price and the production plan — including moving heat pump load into the cheapest, greenest blocks.

## Where it stops

- **Matching, not capacity.** Renewable share is capped by what you consume in the block it arrives, not by what you contract. Beyond roughly 60% of a round-the-clock load, more capacity spills rather than substitutes; storage or a different solar–wind balance is what moves it further.
- **State by state.** Open access economics are set by state regulation and change year to year. A case that works in one state can be marginal in the next, and banking rules in particular move.
- **You choose who owns it.** Capacity can be yours (capex), funded by us and paid from measured savings (ESCO), or bought by the unit under a long-term electricity agreement (Electricity-as-a-Service). The structure changes the charges, so it is chosen with the business case, not before it.

## What we need to start

- Twelve months of electricity bills
- Contract demand and tariff category
- A load profile at fifteen-minute resolution if available
- Roof area and structural notes for behind-the-meter solar
- Existing captive or open access contracts

## What drives the economics

- Landed cost per kWh, not ex-bus tariff
- Open access charges: wheeling, banking, cross-subsidy, additional surcharge
- Capacity utilisation factor by resource and site
- The share of generation you can actually consume
- Grid emission factor, which decides whether electrification cuts carbon
## Facts

- Plan against metered load: Bills, load survey, rooftop and captive parameters. Solar, wind, hybrid, BESS and exchange electricity optimised together, capex or opex, with each state's ToD, banking and open access charges in the landed-cost model.
- Implement the contract: Open access approvals, connection agreement, scheduling registration and ABT metering at the incomer. The regulatory work is the project; the panels are the easy part.
- Meter every source: ABT metering and data loggers on every source and every load, so the position is measured block by block rather than reconciled annually.
- Orchestrate the mix: ergOS schedules the portfolio against price and the production plan — including moving heat pump load into the cheapest, greenest blocks.

## Assumptions and limits

- Matching, not capacity. Renewable share is capped by what you consume in the block it arrives, not by what you contract. Beyond roughly 60% of a round-the-clock load, more capacity spills rather than substitutes; storage or a different solar–wind balance is what moves it further.
- State by state. Open access economics are set by state regulation and change year to year. A case that works in one state can be marginal in the next, and banking rules in particular move.
- You choose who owns it. Capacity can be yours (capex), funded by us and paid from measured savings (ESCO), or bought by the unit under a long-term electricity agreement (Electricity-as-a-Service). The structure changes the charges, so it is chosen with the business case, not before it.

## Questions and answers

**Will this raise my renewable share to 100%?**  
Not on open access alone. Generation only counts when it lands in a block you are consuming, which caps a round-the-clock industrial load near 60% before storage. Storage and a mixed solar–wind profile raise it further; the last few percent are usually the most expensive and are worth questioning.

**What happens to the DISCOM connection?**  
It stays, as backup and as the route to the exchange. The aim is to make the grid a market rather than a supplier, not to disconnect from it.

**Do we need capital?**  
No. We can fund it: under ESCO we invest and are paid from the measured savings, and under Electricity-as-a-Service you pay per unit below grid tariff. Capex is there if you would rather own the assets.
