As energy costs surge nationwide, Power Synch’s transparent energy procurement platform proves that real-time supplier competition can save enterprise buyers up to 19.7% per position – without long-term lock-in or hidden broker margins.
WYOMISSING, Pa., May 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Power Synch, the energy procurement platform built by the industry-leading team from American PowerNet, today released competitive bidding results showing more than $329,000 in documented savings across seven recent wholesale energy procurement events spanning multiple ISOs and load zones.

Why It Matters Now
For manufacturers, data centers, hospitals, universities, and commercial real estate groups, electricity is one of the largest and most volatile operating expenses – yet most still rely on traditional business energy procurement models with limited visibility into supplier pricing or embedded margins.
“The traditional energy procurement model was built for a different era,” said Scott Helm, Power Synch’s Founder and CEO. “When energy prices are rising and budgets are under pressure, the procurement model you use isn’t just an operational decision – it’s a financial strategy.”
Price volatility, surging demand from data centers and electrification, and regulatory uncertainty are pushing enterprise buyers to re-examine how they source power. Early adopters of competitive energy procurement platforms are reporting:
- 2–20% savings per procurement event
- Procurement cycle times reduced from weeks of manual RFPs to minutes
- Improved budget predictability through transparent pricing
- Stronger ESG reporting backed by verifiable sourcing data
Power Synch enables buyers to source competitively through real-time multi-supplier bidding, see every bid transparently, procure flexibly without long-term lock-in, support renewable energy and Scope 2 reporting goals, and accelerate settlement to improve cash flow.
