If you run a restaurant, energy isn’t just a background expense — it can make or break your month. This episode breaks down why natural gas volatility, rising electricity prices, and widespread utility rate increases are driving higher, less predictable bills through winter and into 2026.We explain the historic gas withdrawals from Winter Storm Fern, why power prices often follow gas, and how regulator-approved rate hikes are already hitting millions of customers. Then we lay out practical steps restaurants can take now — from shopping supply in deregulated markets to using reverse auctions and ongoing contract management — to protect margins without becoming energy experts.
