CUSTOMERS
Retail energy markets allow consumers to choose among competitive suppliers vying for their business. This provides energy consumers with many options in terms of energy management, efficiency, renewable “green” energy and price. Just as most consumers can choose from a variety of Internet or telephone service providers, consumers in many states can now choose an electricity and natural gas supplier for their home or business. This is a significant change over traditional utility service, in which an energy consumer has no choice but to purchase from a monopoly utility service provider offering few or no options in terms of energy management tools, renewable energy and efficiency, and pricing.
WHAT IS A COMPETITIVE NATURAL GAS SUPPLIER?
A competitive electric or natural gas supplier is independent of your traditional utility company and provides consumers with competitively priced and innovative electricity or natural gas products. New and exciting product offerings are being developed routinely as suppliers compete for customers and the competitive markets continue to evolve.
