Energy is a bigger cost than most self-storage facilities realize
Self-storage runs lighting, gate and security systems, and climate control for temperature-controlled units, often across multiple sites.
In a deregulated market, the supply charge — typically more than half your bill — is competitive. That’s the part USA Energy puts out to bid across 26+ suppliers, locking the lowest fixed rate for the longest sensible term while your utility keeps delivering the power. It costs you nothing: the supplier pays us, never you.
What it costs
What self-storage facilities typically spend on power
A typical self-storage facilities operation runs about 8,000–60,000 kWh per month. At the U.S. average commercial rate, that’s roughly $1,114–$8,352 in energy alone — before delivery and demand charges. The supply piece is what we shop.
Estimates at 13.92¢/kWh (latest EIA data). See average bills by business type and rates for your state.
