Frequently asked questions
You've got questions? We've got answers
How can working with a renewable energy advisor save my business money?
Working with an advisor helps your organization identify the most cost-effective means of traditional and renewable energy purchasing aligned with your business's goals. Our team helps simplify the complex landscape of retail agreements, utility tariffs, Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), onsite solar generation, and renewable energy certificates (RECs) to build a strategy that hedges against rising utility costs, locks in long-term price stability, and meets your sustainability goals.
What’s the difference between an energy advisor and a broker?
While an energy broker’s primary focus is on finding the lowest short-term rate for electricity contracts, an energy advisor takes a comprehensive, long-term approach. We analyze your historical energy consumption, evaluate market volatility, understand local policies, and build a long-term procurement strategy that integrates energy procurement into your organization’s sustainability strategy. Working with an advisor helps you stay ahead of regulatory changes, reduce budget volatility, and achieve emission reduction targets.
How does ForeFront’s Advisory business differ from its development business?
ForeFront is a leader in behind-the-meter solar and storage projects–but we recognize that onsite generation is not the only decarbonization solution in the market. Our Advisory business helps your organization understand and identify the most appropriate energy solutions for your goals and helps you choose from a wider network of solution providers to implement those solutions. Our advisors leverage the technical expertise of our development and engineering teams to help you de-risk onsite energy projects early in the process.
Is renewable energy procurement only for large corporations?
No–not at all. While large enterprises have historically led in this space, market innovations have made renewable energy solutions accessible to organizations of all sizes. Whether you are a small business looking to subscribe to local community energy projects, a mid-sized facility evaluating rooftop solar, or a national chain seeking to sign a VPPA, we help you identify the projects that align with your budget and sustainability goals.
What are the first steps to starting a corporate decarbonization journey?
We begin by establishing a baseline – assessing your current energy consumption, carbon footprint, and infrastructure. Next, we evaluate potential decarbonization pathways for your specific operational constraints and organizational goals. Finally, we design a flexible, multi-year implementation roadmap. This strategy prioritizes high-impact initiatives now while remaining scalable to adapt to shifting market conditions and evolving business priorities.
