We help industrial operators in Western Canada secure competitive, resilient energy deals, focused on electricity. Since power is often a top-three operating expense, we act as an extension of your team to manage this complexity for you. We provide the specialized expertise and deal-delivery capacity that is often too costly to maintain in-house, allowing you to focus on your core operations while we execute under your mandate.

For most industrial operators in Western Canada, electricity is a top-three Opex item, meaning even marginal improvements have a massive impact.

If you have not actively optimized your supply strategy recently, there is a high probability of capturing 5–15% in savings or value enhancements. We quantify this opportunity quickly during our initial screening so you can make an informed decision on how to proceed.

Our approach is rooted in commercial deal delivery. We begin by screening the full spectrum of energy options from the top down, identifying the most resilient and cost-effective opportunities. Once the best paths are selected, we transition into execution mode, using our deal-lead experience to deliver those outcomes with a singular focus on your commercial objectives. We don’t just explore the market; we navigate it to find—and close—the best possible deals.

As much or as little as you prefer. We are designed to reduce your workload, not add to it. We can operate as a background advisor to support your existing team, or provide turnkey execution where we handle the heavy lifting based on your pre-approved mandate. You set the strategy; we handle the complexity.

At Arder, our success is directly tied to yours. We prefer a compensation structure based on performance and results. By aligning our incentives with your bottom line, we ensure our commercial focus remains on delivering tangible value. Simply put: if we don’t deliver a deal that meets your mandate and improves your position, we don’t get paid. This keeps us disciplined, selective, and fully committed to your success.

Our pricing is built on mutual success. We prefer a performance-based fee structure because it ensures our interests are perfectly aligned with yours. By tying our compensation to the results we deliver, we remain focused on high-value outcomes rather than billable hours. This model reflects our confidence in our top-down screening process and our commitment to improving your bottom line.

Our process begins with a comprehensive "Status Quo" assessment, followed by an exhaustive top-down screen of all commercial, operational, and investment levers. We evaluate every option against your specific objectives for both feasibility and profitability.

Because we operate on a success-based model, our incentives are closely aligned with yours: we are naturally driven to prioritize the highest-value opportunities. We provide you with a transparent breakdown of our quantitative and qualitative findings, giving you the data needed to confidently greenlight the most impactful deals.

Yes. While our strategic focus has shifted toward electricity and electrification to meet high client demand, we continue to deliver specialized LNG mandates on a bespoke basis.

These sectors are not mutually exclusive; our deep roots in the Canadian LNG value chain provide a sophisticated commercial perspective that we apply to all energy projects. Though we don’t proactively advertise in this space, we remain fully equipped to lead complex LNG deals and welcome inquiries to discuss how we can support your specific objectives.
