Welcome to the PlanetLaundry Podcast – brought to you by PlanetLaundry, the magazine of the Coin Laundry Association.
In this episode, PlanetLaundry Editor Bob Nieman interviews Chris Ward, the president and founder of 4WARD Energy Solutions, a national energy consultancy based in Houston. 4WARD is part of the CLA Business Solutions program – with Chris and his team helping Coin Laundry Association members navigate the ever-changing landscape of the deregulated energy industry.
The two discuss the current state of the energy markets, which have seen some laundry owners reporting utility costs that have doubled and, in some cases, tripled in certain areas – while also sharing best practices for taking control of a laundromat’s energy costs.
