Joining forces to bring energy prices down

Billy Ingham Redhawk

Small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) are the backbone of our economy, driving innovation, creating jobs and fostering vibrant communities.

Yet, despite their significant contributions, SMEs often face challenges accessing the same opportunities enjoyed by larger enterprises simply because of their size.

However, there is a solution: the energy basket. At its core, an energy basket deal harnesses the collective purchasing power of multiple SMEs to negotiate better terms and rates with suppliers.

By pooling their energy procurement needs, SMEs can leverage economies of scale and gain access to more competitive pricing.

This approach empowers SMEs to navigate the complexities of the energy market and ensures fairer prices and greater savings.

Once the energy basket is filled with the energy needs of participating businesses, Red Hawk can step in to facilitate purchasing with suppliers.

Through negotiation and partnership, Red Hawk works to secure favourable energy prices and terms that benefit all SMEs involved.

This collaborative effort transforms the energy procurement landscape, allowing SMEs to enjoy the advantages of bulk purchasing while mitigating the challenges of individual negotiation.

Joining forces with other businesses in the energy basket presents a compelling opportunity.

By partnering with Red Hawk and fellow SMEs, businesses can unlock better energy deals, level the playing field, and propel their growth and success in the competitive market landscape.

If you’d like to explore this option for your business, we’d love to tell you more.
