Financial Forecasting and Planning

It is difficult to hit your target if you don’t know what you are aiming at. Utilities that take time to plan today are more likely to achieve greater success in the future. PSE can help you sort through the maze of changes you are facing to help you identify and focus on your target.

One of the main tools that helps you evaluate and plan for your success is a financial forecast. PSE partners with our clients in completing or modifying financial forecasts to assist in business and financial planning efforts. Our strategic approach to financial forecast can be used to evaluate and establish:

• Operating margin objectives
• Evaluating merger and acquisition opportunities
• Modeling wholesale power supply cost change impacts on overall financial results
• Modeling various forecast scenarios for distributed energy resources, electric vehicles, and other industry transformations
• Evaluating capital credit allocation and retirement implications
• Modeling impact of various load growth or contraction forecasts
• Planning rate changes
