Chart 2 shows the movement of the rolling 12-month forward curve for PJM/ComEd. This chart illustrates that it is difficult to pinpoint the exact right time to lock in energy prices, and flexible tracking and buying allows the customer to possibly take advantage of market movements over time to improve performance against their energy budgets. Alfa Energy tracks our flex customers’ open market exposure (see Table 2) and helps customers set both upside and downside price targets in applying a disciplined approach to flexible energy purchasing. While these products are not for all customers, they are useful for clients who have larger loads and are more risk-tolerant.
