Response to Buffalo
News Article
A Buffalo News
article in Sunday’s 9/30/2012 Business section
questioned the effectiveness of New York State’s
deregulated utility industry. Customers utilizing
an energy services company, ( ESCO ), were noted
to have paid more for energy commodity compared
to rates from National Grid. The article also
cited the marketing ploy of some ESCO’s
to offer a low 2-month introductory price and
then raise pricing beyond the local utility rate.
The Energy Cooperative of America has successfully
operated since 1997, when natural gas deregulation
was initiated in New York State. Our market-based
pricing system provides ECA members annual savings
compared to local utility company rates. There
are no long-term contracts and we never offer
lower initial rates to lure potential members.
Annually, our members are provided a savings analysis
which compares ECA rates to the regulated utility
charges. We provide the monthly billing details
to allow a direct comparison. We are proud of
the consistent historical savings we have achieved
for our residential and commercial customers.
ECA will continue to provide our members favorable
energy prices and excellent customer service.
