Our Commercial Electricity and Natural Gas Brokerage Process
Compare electricity and natural gas supply options for your business. Pro Energy Expert helps commercial and industrial customers review supplier pricing and prepare new or renewal contracts in the markets we serve.
From utility bills to a new or renewed contract
Pro Energy Expert works between your business and energy suppliers. We help you compare supply offers; your local utility remains responsible for delivery. Electricity and natural gas options depend on your location and utility.
- Share your utility bills. Have recent electricity or natural gas bills ready. They show the account and usage information needed to start.
- Authorize the supplier search. We ask for authorization to shop supplier pricing on your behalf.
- Review your options. We present supplier pricing for you to compare. Review electricity and natural gas separately if your site uses both.
- Choose before we prepare the contract. Once you are ready to proceed, we handle negotiation and preparation of your contract with the chosen supplier.
Not sure whether your business can choose a supplier? Check our electricity and natural gas markets, then ask us to confirm what applies to your location and utility.
