Recorded: August 25, 2009 at 12:00 PM EDT In May 2009, FirstEnergy held an electricity-rate auction that set the utility price for their service territory through May 2011. This new rate, combined with wholesale power prices that are at near record lows and the elimination of some tariff charges, presents retail suppliers with the opportunity to offer rates lower than the default utility rates. This means, for the first time in several years, energy consumers have a real opportunity to secure electricity rates lower than those offered by the utility, an opportunity that can translate into major cost savings for savvy buyers. Join Dave Laipple, World Energy's Vice President of Energy Markets, for a complimentary, 45-minute webinar as he discusses the implications of the FirstEnergy auction for consumers including strategies on how energy buyers can take advantage of this unique, and potentially short-lived, opportunity to secure more competitive rates for their organization.
