As rates continue to rise and power availability grows increasingly scarce, long-term energy planning has never been more important. The 5-year load growth forecast has increased by nearly a factor of five, from 23 GW to 128 GW in just two years.

So where is the tipping point? What key elements can businesses identify to determine if they are a strong fit for generating and storing their own power on-site?
