Today, in many states, you are able to select a provider that best matches your energy needs. Energy is still distributed through the same reliable, regulated system it has always been, ensuring timely delivery to you.

Generation of electricity by utilities has been deregulated. This means that companies other than utilities can produce and sell electricity.	Transmission of electricity from power plants is still regulated. Utilities or Independent System Operators handle the transfer of electricity to distribution centers.	Distribution to individual consumers is also still regulated. Your local utility handles the "scaling down" of power and delivers the electricity through power lines.

The above concept is similar to the deregulation of long distance telephone service. All of the wires are managed by the utility, but the consumer has the choice of whom to purchase the service from.

By evaluating alternate energy suppliers, you could potentially save a significant percentage annually on your energy costs, all while managing the risks of the marketplace. As a commercial or industrial customer, you can assume more responsibility for managing your energy needs and costs, while maintaining a sharper focus on your core business. You can actually demand and get better customer service, combined with accurate and timely billing. You will have access to products and services that utilities may not offer. All the while, you have the same reliability you have always been accustomed to with no interruption in service.

As a consumer you now have the power of choice. EChoice Energy Group is here to help you find the best competitive rates in the deregulated market.
