How to Reduce Energy Costs for Your Small Business

Episode Notes

Hey everybody, this is Gene Marks and welcome to another episode of the Hartford Small Biz Ahead Podcast. Thank you so much for joining me. Let’s talk this week about energy and the cost of utilities. So as you’re aware, the cost of energy, including the, like cost of gas at the pumps has plateaued around the country, which is really great news. We obviously had spikes over the past year or so, caused by a lot of different factors as we know, anywhere from the war in Ukraine to supply chain issues. Those energy concerns, those oil price concerns, gas costs have actually leveled out, and that’s good news. If you take a look at your utility bill and what you’re paying for electricity, you will notice something. As with most of my clients over the past two years, the cost of our utilities, electricity, even natural gas has increased anywhere from 50 to 75%, which means that depending on where you are and where you’re buying your power from, you might be paying as much as 75% more for those utilities than you were just two years ago.
