The Progressive Procurement product allows a flexible approach to electricity procurement

Progressive Procurement works on a forward price hedging strategy procuring load lots per quarter of the year at prevailing wholesale prices. Hedging purchases are averaged per quarter then converted into peak & off-peak tariffs for that quarter
5 Key Reasons to be on a Progressive Procurement Energy Contract
- Viewed as better practice generally – a lower risk with better Governance
- Variable energy & environmental certificate price linked to the market, not to one point in time
- Allows for sound, science-based purchasing decision making
- Ensures continual focus on energy within your business
- PA does the heavy lifting – Members can be active or passive in the program apply
Procurement Australia’s Experience in Progressive Methodology
- Established the product in the Local Government sector
- 3 portfolios tendered in November 2017 and March 2018
- Firm committed volume only
- Large Market meters only
