What makes up our electricity & natural gas programs?

Our electricity and natural gas procurement programs have been designed around the needs of our members. Here’s what’s included:

• Competitive RFP electricity & natural gas procurement – Our robust competitive procurement process results in multiple proposals from the largest suppliers in the region.
• Guaranteed competitive price – Your price through PowerOptions is based on the day’s energy market and your organization’s particular load. And we verify and monitor suppliers’ prices for accuracy against negotiated pricing.
• Protections against unexpected costs – A low price is only as good as the contract that protects it. Our pre-negotiated contract has the strongest customer protections in the market.
• Pricing options that reflect your risk tolerance – These range from fixed all-in, to a layered buying approach, to wholesale market access.
• Our “Market Watch” tool – The unique Market Watch tool allows you to watch and track your indicative price over time before making a decision, allowing you to lock-in at advantageous times.
• Strike pricing – Set a strike price to automatically purchase when the price is right.
