Contract Negotiation built for education facilities running 300,000-1,000,000 kWh/month in the ISO-NE market. We turn your academic calendar-driven fluctuations load into a competitive bid across vetted Connecticut suppliers — typically a 27% cut, at no cost to you.
Connecticut operates within the ISO-NE market with fully deregulated electricity supply, where competitive suppliers bid against high standard-service utility rates.
Connecticut deregulated in 2000, and for education operations that maturity matters: a deep bench of ISO-NE suppliers means real competition for your contract negotiation mandate. We work that field daily so your 300,000-1,000,000 kWh/month load is priced against the whole market, not a single incumbent — leaning on Connecticut's standing as the home to some of the highest commercial electricity rates in the continental U.S., making competitive supply essential.
