GWT2Energy Weekly Power-Up: Your Restaurant Energy Briefing Sept 2, 2025

In the fast-paced restaurant world, every dollar counts. While you’re focused on creating amazing dining experiences, rising energy costs can be silently eating into your profits. This weekly briefing from GWT2Energy is designed to keep you ahead of the curve with a quick, easy-to-digest recap of the energy market and what it means for your bottom line.

This Week’s Energy Market at a Glance

This week, we’re seeing a mixed but volatile energy market. Here’s the breakdown:

• Electricity rates are on the rise. The latest data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) shows that commercial electricity rates have jumped 4.8% over the past year. For restaurants, which are three times more energy-intensive than typical commercial buildings, this increase can have a major impact on your monthly bills.

• Natural gas prices are fluctuating. While natural gas prices are currently down from their recent highs, they’ve seen a 9% increase in the last 5 days due to shrinking U.S. inventories. With the winter heating season just around the corner, we can expect continued price volatility.

The Real-World Impact on Restaurants

These aren’t just numbers on a chart. Across the country, restaurants are feeling the squeeze. In Evansville, Indiana, one local restaurant saw its energy bill skyrocket by $4,500 in just a few months. Another business owner with multiple locations reported paying over $50,000 in combined utility bills.

These rising costs are forcing many restaurants to make tough choices, from raising menu prices to cutting back on staff hours. But what if there was a better way?
