For retail, retail parks and shopping centres
Space for retail.
Clarity on energy.
Refrigeration, opening hours and tenant mix shape demand. We turn these into a procurement foundation that purchasing teams, centre management and owners can use together.
One centre.
Many consumption profiles.
Shopping centres, high-street properties, retail parks, individual retail warehouses, supermarkets and DIY stores have different energy requirements. Tenant mix, opening hours, refrigeration and building systems shape consumption – an annual total alone does not capture these differences.
NeoBid analyses the available load profiles and develops a procurement strategy for your portfolio with you. Where locations or uses differ significantly, we consider appropriate sub-portfolios separately. On this basis, we map supply points and responsibilities, pool suitable volumes and make offers comparable for each structure.
Why NeoBid ↗Procure appropriately.
Decide with clarity.
Your building, its users and planned changes are the starting point.
| Topic | Our contribution | Your benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Food and non-food | Refrigeration plays a particular role in food retail; lighting and indoor climate are important drivers in non-food retail. We take account of your actual profiles and operating hours. | Procurement assumptions reflect the location rather than a generic retail average. |
| Centre and leased areas | Shared areas, central building systems and tenant contracts are clearly allocated. Together with property and centre management, we support outreach and information for interested tenants. We assess whether they can join the owner’s pooled procurement with their own authorisation and compatible contract dates – including defined green electricity requirements. | Tenants without their own professional procurement team gain access to structured competition. Potential price benefits and suitable green energy products are compared transparently; each contracting party retains the decision. |
| Stores and changes | New locations, closures, refurbishments and new anchor tenants inform volume assumptions and contract terms. During expansion, we support energy matters at new sites – particularly for international retailers entering or growing in Germany. We bring supply starts, deadlines and responsibilities together in a central overview. | Centrally coordinated energy procurement supports expansion and keeps new and existing locations in view. Your team receives clear next steps for procurement and the start of supply. |
| Approval and reporting | On request, we prepare the offer comparison and recommendation as a presentation. We tailor data series and reporting formats to your organisation. | Purchasing teams, asset management and operators work from a transparent basis for decisions. |
What changes your demand.
Outside opening hours
Refrigeration and central systems may continue running when a shop is closed. Available load profiles help distinguish this baseload from consumption during opening hours.
New technology and on-site generation
LEDs, heat pumps, new refrigeration systems and photovoltaics can change volumes and profiles. Planned measures are documented as assumptions and considered in procurement.
Good to know.
Can we work with NeoBid if we already have an adviser?
Yes. On request, we provide a non-binding second opinion on a portfolio that has already been tendered: do costs, procurement strategy and risk profile fit your objectives? We take existing mandates, contract dates and responsibilities into account. A complementary engagement can distribute work across several service providers and reduce reliance on a single provider. A suitable starting point might be a newly acquired or leased property, a sub-portfolio with expiring contracts, or a clear split between electricity and gas. Clear interfaces are essential to avoid unnecessary coordination and duplication.
Who selects the supplier?
You decide. NeoBid presents offers, risks and recommendations transparently, with a presentation for your internal records if requested.
