Energy services for the public sector

GETEC ENERGIE reliably supplies the public sector with energy – from renewable and conventional sources. In addition, we support public administrations in tendering procedures and take over energy management processes - independent of the actual energy supply. More and more government agencies and public companies are working towards reducing their carbon emissions. Here, too, we provide support in the development and implementation of the appropriate catalogue of measures.

We look forward to working with you.

Energy procurement for authorities and public companies

Although the public sector has been free to choose its energy suppliers since the liberalization of the energy markets, in most cases it is obliged to put its electricity and natural gas requirements out to tender throughout Europe. GETEC ENERGIE takes part in the relevant tenders and supplies energy to public institutions at federal, state and municipal level - from office buildings, schools and public swimming pools to road maintenance depots. We also support the public sector in the appropriate design of tenders for energy procurement. Tenders are usually associated with a considerable amount of effort for the data preparation of the individual consumption points and require a profound knowledge of the energy industry. GETEC ENERGIE also supports government agencies and public companies in creating a suitable energy procurement concept.

Energy services for the public sector

Supplying energy to a large number of facilities, properties or locations often means a lot of administrative work. Invoices and reports are often not available in the form that is important for a low internal effort - for example, for processes in central administrations. If, on the other hand, high demands are made, for instance on the billing format, these limit the competition of possible energy suppliers. GETEC ENERGIE offers government agencies and public companies the complete handling of all energy-related processes in the form of a white label energy supply unit, independent of energy supply. This means that government agencies benefit from a flexible choice of electricity and natural gas suppliers, while at the same time always using the same data formats. In addition, we also support the public sector in developing a suitable procurement concept and in preparing and evaluating tenders. With the tools at our disposal, we can transparently evaluate and classify the incoming offers.

Finding the right mix: energy from renewable and conventional sources

We provide targeted support to our public sector customers to procure power and gas according to their individual needs – both from renewable and conventional sources. Together with you, we analyze your current situation, your decarbonization goals and develop a roadmap based on your specifications. This can for example include products related to electricity from renewable sources - such as supplementary guarantees of origin (GOOs) or power purchase agreements (PPAs) – and/or the procurement of biomethane. Biomethane can in some instances offer a reduction in carbon emissions, and can partially or completely replace fossil natural gas.

Combining planning security and flexibility: let’s define your procurement strategy together

Public sector energy consumers often seek procurement models that are ideal for maintaining the balance between planning security and flexibility, on the one hand, and decarbonization goals and market-driven prices, on the other hand. GETEC ENERGIE supports its customers with flexible procurement models offering planning security and flexibility by combining long-term products and short-term market opportunities. Depending on your individual situation, this could mean, for example, procuring a certain percentage of your power need on the futures market, another part via a PPA and remaining smaller amounts on the short-term spot market. This can be an important factor for successfully shaping a company’s energy costs.
