How much you will be paid completely depends on your level of commitment when advocating the PowerConnect program as well as the amount of qualified clients that you refer in the program. The PowerConnect program allows for substantial new revenue streams for your business. There is no limit to how much you make through the PowerConnect program.

When and how you receive commission payments depends on the types of services that you choose to offer to your clients through PowerConnect. For energy procurement services you will be compensated based off of your customer’s annual kWh usage. For bill auditing services you will be compensated based on the actual revenue from a refund received back on behalf of a client. Your clients’ payments and yours for participation in demand response programs are based on the amount of kW reduction your client achieves during an emergency reduction event.

If you choose to offer energy procurement to your clients, your commission will be based off of your client’s account size in terms of kilowatt hours. The higher their kWh usage, the more opportunity you have for financial compensation. You will be paid as soon as your client accepts a supplier through the BidUrEnergy’s Blind Bid auction platform.

For Bill Audit services, your commission is based on the agreed upon service level (basic, intermediate, or advanced). This percentage amount is then based on the actual revenue from the refund that BUE obtains back on behalf of your client from the utility company.

If you decide to offer Demand Response, your client’s initial negotiated payment will be based on the amount of kW they can reduce. Your actual commission payment as well as your clients’ payment is based on the amount of reduction (kW) and percentage of reduction performance that your client achieves after a demand response event or series of demand response events within a season.
