10. Deregulated Electricity Generator Regulated Delivery (Utility Co)
Deregulation means the generation portion of electricity service
is open to competition. During the deregulation process the
local utility is forced to sell their generation capacity, what
remains is a regulated delivery (utility) company that continues
to deliver electricity, maintains reliability, reads the meter, and
provides customer service to the consumer.

11. The objective of deregulation is to offer energy customers greater
choice, both among suppliers and services. Ideally that will result in
increased market efficiency and dollar savings to the consumer.

21. The multitude of options combined with dramatic price fluctuations makes the
deregulated market infinitely more complex.
Some energy companies can help your business buy energy at 20% to 50% off peak
rates. We recommend using a company that has a simple and objective process
based on proven strategies that eliminates uncertainty and volatility risk for your
business.
Use an energy broker that connects businesses with the right supplier
and the right contract at the lowest possible rate.
These are just a few of the available energy providers

22. Variable rate and hybrid contracts, on the surface, appear to save you money but actually
cost you more than a fixed all inclusive rate contract. You should choose your supplier
based on total term cost not just the rate you get today. A business that makes a
decision by comparing rates only are often surprised by the volatility and hidden pass-
thru charges which can add 25% or more to the energy cost.

Most businesses lack the time, expertise, and tools to track the energy market and make
good purchasing decisions. Businesses today rely on experts when it comes to
financial, insurance real estate and other complex transactions.
