This document discusses how energy broking works to reduce costs for consumers and suppliers. Energy broking involves monitoring energy markets to secure favorable prices and broker energy contracts between suppliers and consumers. By broking energy deals, reducing marketing and customer care costs for suppliers, and analyzing trends to time purchases well, energy brokers are able to obtain lower prices for consumers while also making a profit from brokering fees paid by suppliers. The process requires consumers to provide basic account information but no contract is signed until the best options are presented.
