 | | Index + Block Solutions* You pay a fixed price for a specified amount of electricity based on the time period, month, or season you would like to cover. Hourly usage over or under the specified amount is settled based on an agreed upon index. Greater Budget Predictability
Index + Block is for those who want the flexibility to fix prices and volumes over time, and are comfortable with the increased risk of being exposed to index prices. It allows you to be partially exposed to market price volatility while hedging the remainder of your load (block) at a fixed rate. The size and make-up of the block is at the customer's discretion and will depend on the customer's risk tolerance. Ideal for:
Businesses with usage profiles that do not vary significantly day to day and that can reduce their energy requirements when index prices are high. How it Works
An Index + Block plan allows you to hedge using both fixed and index rates. The fixed price applies to the contracted block volume. The negotiated block price is settled against market-based prices. If market prices are higher than the contracted block price for the given period, you will receive a credit from us.  | However, if market prices are lower, you are required to pay the difference between the block price and the market price. For any additional electricity consumed beyond the specified block quantity, you pay hourly, market-based prices according to the terms of your contract. |
