The problem

Busy periods should grow revenue — not quietly destroy margin.

High-load businesses use more energy when they are busiest. Ovens, dryers, refrigeration, HVAC, dishwashers, water heating, saunas, lighting, and other equipment often run at maximum capacity at the same time.

Most businesses only see the impact later in the utility bill. By then, they do not know which equipment caused the spike, which operating window created the cost, or how much margin was lost. The business serves more customers, equipment works harder, energy costs rise — but pricing stays the same.
What Thola does

1. See

Thola models your site load and identifies when energy demand is increasing. We show which operating windows and equipment are driving peak-cost pressure.

2. Recover

Thola recommends an Energy Premium rate based on equipment use, occupancy, weather, and peak-demand conditions. Businesses can apply this premium to recover energy costs during high-demand periods.

3. Reduce

Thola helps reduce future costs through load shifting, equipment upgrade recommendations, and smarter operating decisions.
Who it is for

Built for businesses where equipment drives the bill.

The best-fit customer has recurring utility pressure, busy operating windows, high equipment use, and the ability to act on pricing or operating decisions.

Energy Premium

A transparent premium for high-demand operating periods.

When a business is busy, equipment is under pressure, and climate conditions are increasing demand, Thola recommends a transparent Energy Premium rate. This helps businesses recover peak-demand costs they would otherwise absorb silently.

Most energy tools focus only on savings. Thola starts with recovery. The Energy Premium is the wedge. Load shifting, equipment upgrades, solar/storage feasibility, and financing-ready improvements are the expansion path.

Stop letting energy costs eat your margin.

Thola helps you see where energy is hurting your business, recover peak-demand costs, and reduce future bills.
