If you’ve seen your company’s electric bill spike—or if you’re bracing for it—this episode is your guide. Doug Mullett, energy consultant and LED lighting expert, walks us through how manufacturers and facilities can fight rising costs by getting smarter about lighting, rebates, and demand charges.

This isn't a sales pitch—it’s a masterclass in how energy works behind the scenes and what you can actually control.

We get into:

• Why electricity costs are going up—and how companies get blindsided
• How Doug turned his LED side hustle into a thriving business
• What most people misunderstand about lighting solutions
• The real reason manufacturers should care about Peak Load Contribution (PLC)
• The difference between selling and being remembered
• Why utility companies might not tell you when your bill is about to spike
• How good design can cut your light fixtures in half and get bigger rebates

Oh—and we also cover:
