Gravity Launches Utility Bill Management to Help Enterprises Cut Energy Costs

Gravity, the leading enterprise carbon and energy management platform, today announced the launch of Utility Bill Management, a new product that uses AI agents to automate how enterprises collect, analyze, and cut utility spend. The launch follows a successful pilot in which Gravity has already unlocked millions of dollars in refunds, avoided costs, and energy savings for early customers.

The launch comes as energy costs have become a top-line concern for CFOs, operators, and sustainability teams. U.S. commercial electricity prices increased 10.7% in the last year, with 43 states seeing increases. Hotspots like Virginia (+26.3%), Ohio (+21.9%), and Pennsylvania (+19.5%) reflect the load growth from data center expansion. 

Companies are unprepared for this new reality. Enterprise utility bills are rife with errors, with an estimated 80% of companies overpaying. Most companies manage thousands of bills across dozens of providers using spreadsheets, manual audits and data entry, and legacy software – leaving errors hidden and refunds unclaimed for months. Sustainability teams, meanwhile, often struggle to translate reporting into tangible business value, even though utilities data hold many of the insights required to reduce costs and emissions.

Gravity’s Utility Bill Management takes a new approach. Bills are pulled directly from over 9,000 utility provider integrations via API or extracted from electricity, natural gas, water, and waste bills with agentic AI. Every bill is audited by deterministic rules and AI agents: rules handle unambiguous checks like tariff mismatches and inactive meters, while agents handle expert analysis that typically requires consultants. The product uncovers seven insight types at launch: consumption anomalies, power-factor penalties, incorrect rate tariffs, optional rider surcharges, inactive meters, water leak and vampire-load detection, and sales tax exemptions.

Unlike platforms that stop at monitoring, Gravity works with customers to execute projects and capture savings. Gravity’s in-house energy management team qualifies projects, generates proposals, and matches customers with trusted vendors through Gravity’s Energy Management Marketplace, which has generated tens of millions in savings since August 2025. 

Pilot customers have already identified millions in cost savings. MiddleGround Capital, a private equity firm with 15 portfolio companies and over $3.4 billion in assets under management, adopted Utility Bill Management and has already seen results. A leading global automotive components manufacturer in its portfolio has secured $161,000 in utility refunds to date with additional scoped opportunities. MiddleGround has saved over $1.26 million across its portfolio through Utility Bill Management and energy projects, with another $1.30 million in annual savings opportunities identified. 

"For the first time, we have one place to measure our portfolio's emissions, track energy costs across every portfolio company, and trust that if there's a billing error or an energy savings opportunity sitting on the table, it will be automatically caught and addressed," said Madelyn Tutewiler, Director of ESG at MiddleGround Capital. "The $161,000 refund is exactly the kind of outcome we were hoping this would unlock." 

"Companies are leaving $2 trillion in energy savings on the table every year, and much of it is hiding in utility bills that are rarely – if ever – audited," said Saleh ElHattab, Co-Founder and CEO of Gravity. "We find millions of dollars in hidden overcharges, anomalies, and refunds. And we don’t stop there: Gravity does end-to-end value recapture so that insights don’t collect dust.” 

Alongside the launch, Gravity welcomed Jigar Shah — co-founder of SunEdison and former executive director of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Loan Programs Office — as a senior advisor to help guide the company’s expansion into enterprise utility cost management. 

“Most companies pay their utility bills the same way they pay rent — assume the number is right and move on,” said Jigar Shah. “With commercial electricity prices up 10.7% year-over-year, that complacency costs real money. Gravity leads the market in actually doing the work to catch errors at the bill level and put dollars back on the P&L, using the same data required for climate disclosures."

Gravity will continue expanding Utility Bill Management with additional insight categories and capabilities, including automatic bill payment. Setup for new customers is measured in days, not weeks or months.
