Gas contract spread reduction: supply cost optimization

Context and objective

Companies with high natural gas consumption can significantly reduce procurement costs through strategic management of supply contracts. The contract spread, i.e., the margin applied by suppliers over the reference price, is a key element in defining energy spending.

The company requested an analysis of gas purchase conditions in view of the contract renewal effective March 2025, with the aim of obtaining a more competitive offer and reducing costs related to the applied spread.

The intervention

Optimization of the gas supply contract included:

1

Gas market analysis

Monitoring price trends and comparing different available offers.

2

Evaluation of pre-existing contract conditions

Identification of room for improvement in contract structure.

3

Renegotiation of contract spread

Reducing the value applied by the supplier through targeted negotiation.

4

Percentage fixing option

Introduction of a flexible strategy to mitigate the risk of future fluctuations.

The company was guided in choosing the best available offer, resulting in a contract that was more advantageous than the initial terms.

Results and benefits

The operation generated concrete economic benefits:

Contract spread reduction

3.65 c€/Smc to 1.15 c€/Smc.

Significant economic savings

Through a more advantageous rate.

Greater control over energy costs

With a more predictable and stable pricing structure.

Economic and operational impact

Abatement of supply costs

Energy cost savings with positive effects on marginality.

Better management of market volatility

Structuring a contract with elements of long-term stability.
