Wiz Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Shun Yamasaki), operator of the 'Denki Choice' service, has established the 'Emergency Consultation Desk for Corporate Electricity Contracts and Rising Electricity Cost Risks.' In response to recent JEPX market price hikes and the impact of the Iranian situation, we provide third-party advice that looks beyond simple quote comparisons to analyze market risks and adjustment structures.

### 01 Background of the Free Consultation Desk In FY2026, the JEPX market has remained at high price levels despite it being spring, a season when prices typically stabilize. Multiple factors are contributing to this, including rising LNG prices (JKM) due to Middle East tensions, scheduled power plant maintenance, risks of increased demand from heatwaves, and structural changes in procurement by major utilities. Consequently, price volatility in the electricity market has increased, highlighting differences in procurement strength and risk management among providers.

### 02 Why a Review is Necessary Now 'New Power' (PPS) companies vary greatly in their procurement methods. Some rely heavily on market prices, while others mitigate risks through bilateral contracts, futures trading, and renewable energy sources. Even in the same market environment, results vary significantly depending on the utility and plan chosen.

### 03 What Denki Choice Diagnoses We provide neutral diagnostics from the following perspectives: - Alignment of current contracts with the market environment - Future price hike risk assessment - Vulnerability of contracts to market spikes - Identification of more suitable plans or procurement methods

### 04 Recommended For - Companies currently on market-linked plans - Those concerned about rising electricity costs - Those needing a third-party evaluation of current contracts - Those unsure how to compare multiple proposals

### 05 Start with a 'Health Check' By providing a recent electricity bill, we can use our proprietary simulation to diagnose the risks in your current contract. We guarantee no high-pressure sales or forced switching. Even if you are just feeling uncertain about your current plan, feel free to use our free consultation desk before options narrow further.

FAQ

What is the main reason Wiz opened a free consultation desk?

Due to the increased risk of power cost fluctuations, including the rise in JEPX market prices, the surge in LNG prices due to the situation in Iran, and increased demand due to extreme heat, the desk was established to diagnose corporate contract content from a neutral position.

What items can be diagnosed at the consultation desk?

The desk uses proprietary simulations to diagnose whether the current contract is suitable for the market environment, the risk of future rate increases, the impact during market surges, and to recommend optimal plans and procurement methods.

What are the specific factors causing the JEPX market price to remain high?

Factors include the rise in LNG prices (JKM) due to Middle East tensions, regular maintenance at power plants, increased demand due to extreme heat, and changes in the procurement structure of major power companies.

What is the risk for companies with market-linked plans?

If a power company's procurement method heavily depends on market prices, there is a significant risk of a substantial increase in electricity rates when market prices surge.

What should I prepare for the consultation?

Preparing the most recent electricity bill can help diagnose the risks of your current contract more accurately.
