CRA’s Energy Practice helps large energy consumers manage the cost, reliability, and increasingly complex infrastructure requirements associated with their energy needs. We advise data centers, manufacturers, universities, hospitals, campuses, public agencies, and other large users as they make long-term energy and infrastructure decisions and engage with utilities, grid operators, regulators, and energy suppliers.
Our experts combine deep knowledge of power and natural gas markets, utility rates and regulation, transmission and distribution systems, energy procurement, and generation development. We help clients understand their alternatives, quantify tradeoffs, manage risk, and develop energy strategies aligned with their broader business and operational objectives.
From securing utility service for a new or expanding facility to negotiating rates and commercial arrangements, procuring power, developing onsite resources, and participating in regulatory proceedings, CRA provides independent advice across the full range of energy decisions facing large consumers.
