The Hidden Driver Behind 10X Energy Bill Increases—and How Industrial Leaders in PJM Can Reverse It

Across several PJM regions, industrial and large commercial customers are opening their energy bills to find costs that have jumped nine to ten times higher than expected. One of the biggest culprits? Coincident Peak (5CP) charges, a Capacity cost driver that appears as a line item on your bill—and one you can influence with the right strategy.

In this exclusive, limited-space webinar, our energy experts will walk you through how to read and interpret your energy bill, with a special focus on the charges you can actively manage. We’ll explain what Coincident Peak charges are, how they’re calculated, why they’re spiking, and how they impact your total monthly cost.

You’ll also learn which bill components you can control, how market changes in PJM affect your bottom line, and practical steps you can take to reduce exposure to high 5CP costs. Finally, we’ll share proven best practices to help you minimize avoidable charges and capture value before these costs hit your bill.

You’ll learn:

• What 5CP is and why Capacity charges are suddenly exploding 
• How PJM grid conditions and market dynamics are driving 10X bill increases
• Which customer segments and PJM zones are most impacted
• Critical steps organizations can take today to secure optimal demand response returns in PJM
