Presently many businesses outsource bill validation (BV) to energy accounting systems that validate and manage the payment of invoices received in either electronic or paper form. But wait the disruptors are here! To simplify and smooth out the clunky ways of BV forever.
We look at the targeted charging review (TCR) and using our non-commodity forecasting tool Cost-Stacker we review the impact that this will have on future non-energy charges often refereed to as TPC’s or third [arty charges.
As a result of the TCR changes to TNUoS and DUoS charging structures for residual costs will be implemented from April 2021 onwards. A second OFGEM review will consider “forward looking” charges, which are designed to provide pricing signals to consumers to encourage specific consumption behaviour.
Cloud computing and robotic process automation are about to disrupt the energy sector, automating energy bill management – and even procurement itself – according to third party intermediary, Catalyst Commercial Services.
