An energy broker is an intermediary between energy consumers (individuals, businesses, communities) and energy suppliers (electricity, gas, renewable energy).
The role of the energy broker is to assist clients in obtaining the best contract conditions for purchasing energy, in terms of price, duration, and associated services.
At Mon Courtier Energie, our team of experts supports businesses and co-ownerships in managing their energy contracts.
What are the main tasks of an energy broker?
The 5 main tasks are:
Needs analysis: The broker assesses the energy needs of their clients based on past consumption and forecasts.
Searching for offers: The broker contacts multiple energy suppliers to obtain the best price and contract terms.
Negotiation with suppliers: With their market knowledge, the broker negotiates with suppliers to secure advantageous rates for their clients.
Advisory role: The broker guides clients in managing their energy contracts and may provide advice on energy purchasing strategies (fixed, indexed, etc.), managing risks associated with market fluctuations, or transitioning to renewable energy.
Contract monitoring and management: Once the contract is signed, the broker continues to monitor market developments to alert clients about upcoming opportunities or risks.
Why seek support for energy matters?
The broker has a deep understanding of energy market trends and prices. They are there to save their client time by contacting multiple partner suppliers directly.
Thanks to the broker's skills and expertise, they will provide their client with several offers. The chosen offer will be the best solution suited to the business profile and volume.
By going through a broker, the consumer can receive advice at the right time for contract deadlines and be guided through the contract renewal process.
At Mon Courtier Energie, we also offer all of our clients services for personalized follow-up and better energy management.
