What we do
Our solutions target cost mitigation, consumption management and carbon-emission reduction.
We empower our clients to make informed procurement decisions, and better manage the complexities of energy invoicing – where necessary, identifying and recovering supplier overcharge.
PEP-ICD’s senior management team have worked in the energy industry as far back as deregulation. We apply our collective experience to overseeing all aspects our clients’ energy needs.
Implementing successful strategies requires a cohesive approach – there’s little point in achieving comparative value through effective risk-management, if a proportionate effort is not being applied to control energy consumption.
The most direct route to cost mitigation is, of course, consumption reduction – be it through efficiencies or the development of on-site energy assets.
Let our team of procurement experts, risk-managers and certified engineers walk you through the process.

Our range of services
Tendering, Procurement & Risk-Management
- PEP-ICD innovates bespoke solutions tailored to your specific requirements.
- In addition to traditional "Fixed Price, Fixed Term" supply agreements, we deliver a range of Flexible contracts subject to initial risk-profiling.
- Invariably, a Flexible approach will achieve lower commodity costs and reduce exposure to supplier risk-premiums.
- Experience has taught us that market timing represents the single most important impact on the out-turned energy rate a consumer will pay. Non-energy charges (including fixed costs) make up 60% of the bill, with commodity costs accounting for the remaining 40%. Purchasing commodity at the right time for the right period of delivery can achieve significant cost mitigation when measured against the comparative "flat-line" of traditional "Fixed Price, Fixed Term" contracting.
- As energy markets increase in volatility, both timing and the length of contract terms is paramount. Choosing the "right" day out of 365 to secure your prices can be a risky business. We take a measured and responsible approach to trading our clients' energy to achieve an optimised outcome designed to beat the market over the lifetime of the supply agreement.
Market Intelligence
- PEP-ICD empowers clients to make informed decisions based on an understanding of market drivers and fundamental context.
- We provide regular and thorough analysis of the electricity and gas forward markets, as well as the wider energy complex including carbon, oil and coal.

Compliance & Accreditation
- PEP-ICD help businesses avoid wasting precious time on repetitive legislative obligations.

- PEP-ICD can oversee both mandatory Carbon obligations (UK-ETS) as well as project manage voluntary offsetting programmes.
- Over 75% of our clients are already on REGO-backed fully renewable supply agreements. If green contracts are not available for whatever reason, we can arrange to offset all brown energy via our carbon offsetting program.
