ReVision Energy

Certified B Corporations are leading a global movement to redefine success in business. By voluntarily meeting higher standards of transparency, accountability, and performance, Certified B Corps are distinguishing themselves in a cluttered marketplace by offering a positive vision of a better way to do business. Certified B Corps are competing to be not just ‘The Best in the World’, but ‘The Best for the World’.  The “B” stands for “Benefit” Corporation and denotes that a business has committed itself to a defined set of non-traditional business practices that benefit employees, customers, and the broader community by creating a positive impact on society and the environment. B Corps differ from traditional corporations in purpose, accountability, and transparency, but not in taxation.  In a traditional corporation, shareholders judge the company’s financial performance; with a B Corp, shareholders judge performance based on how a corporation’s goals benefit society and the environment. Transparency provisions require benefit corporations to publish annual benefit reports of their social and environmental performance using a comprehensive, credible, independent and transparent third-party standard. B Labs is the non-profit organization that awards B Corp certification to companies that complete a rigorous application process. To date, there are 1,300 B Corps in 120 industries across the globe with the common goal of redefining business success.  At ReVision Energy we have always prided ourselves on being a mission-driven company that makes a substantial effort to embody our values in every interaction with customers, with suppliers, with the community and of course also with each other. We regularly try to #BtheChange, and monthly we detail a different co-owner’s story about how they are making a difference in their world. Being certified as a B Corporation is a validation of those efforts and joins us in a community of over 1,300 like-minded businesses worldwide who all agree that business is not just about profits, but can and should be a source for positive social and environmental change in the world.

Reduce expensive demand charges with solar + batteries While we tend to think of solar and battery storage as an emergency backup solution, the reality is that battery storage combined with solar offers a strong incentive for the unique power needs of businesses.  Energy storage for commercial business with solar A Pika Energy Island provides backup power for a business, reducing the spikiness of demand charges  For businesses, solar electricity makes sense because it provides reliable electricity locked in a rate lower than the utility company. However, for many businesses the bulk of the electric bill is structured around demand charges (paying for a certain amount of grid capacity to be available during energy spikes) vs. volumetric charges (paying for the actual kilowatt-hours of electricity needed to power the business).  Solar electricity does a great job of reducing volumetric charges, and when there is coincident load (heavy power use during the day) it can have an impact on demand charges as well. However, this impact is significantly enhanced by the addition of batteries, which allow stored solar to offset power use during the ‘shoulder’ periods of the day — mornings and evenings — when the sun has gone down but power use is still typically high.
