Baseload Secure Plan
Designed for facilities that run continuously and need a firm supply position.
How it works
Baseload Secure assumes a near-constant load profile and structures supply around it: a majority of the volume is covered by bilateral generator contracts that match the baseload shape, with a small market component to handle deviation. The plan is most efficient for customers whose load shape is genuinely flat.
When it’s the right fit
Suitable for continuous-process manufacturing, data centres, cold storage, and any operation where consumption is essentially constant. The structural alignment between load shape and supply portfolio is what gives Baseload Secure its commercial advantage.
Best for
- Continuous-process facilities
- Data centres and cold storage
- High load-factor industrial operations
Frequently asked questions
What is the Baseload Secure Plan?
Baseload Secure is Rockport Power’s plan for facilities that run continuously and need a firm supply position. Most of the volume is covered by bilateral contracts with generators matched to your flat load shape, with a small, tightly bounded market component handling deviations.
Which facilities fit Baseload Secure?
Continuous-process manufacturing, data centres, cold storage, and other high load-factor operations where consumption is essentially constant around the clock. The plan’s commercial advantage comes from structurally aligning the supply portfolio with a genuinely flat 24/7 load — if your load varies significantly, another Rockport Power plan may fit better.
How is Baseload Secure priced?
Pricing combines a bilateral baseload block contracted with partner generators and a tightly bounded market component for deviations, settled monthly over typical terms of 24 to 60 months. Because the portfolio mirrors a flat load, exposure to spot-market volatility stays small and predictable across the term.
Why do continuous operations need a firm supply position?
A facility that cannot interrupt production carries the highest cost of price volatility, because it cannot shift load away from expensive hours. A firm, bilateral-backed position converts that exposure into a stable contracted cost, protecting margins on every hour of around-the-clock operation.
Do I qualify for Baseload Secure?
You need contestable status under RCOA — generally at least 100 kW average peak demand — and a genuinely flat, high load-factor consumption profile. Rockport Power reviews twelve months of interval data to confirm your load shape suits the plan before recommending it.
